Prestressed Concrete

Prestressed Concrete is a technique used in construction to enhance the tensile strength of concrete by introducing internal stresses before the external loads are applied.

It is primarily used in the construction of bridges, overpasses, parking garages, and other structures that require high durability and load-bearing capacity. By pre-stressing the concrete, the material is able to resist cracking under tension, making it ideal for applications where the risk of structural failure due to bending and cracking is high.
