Post Tensioning
Post-tensioning is a construction
technique that strengthens concrete by
embedding high-strength steel tendons,
which are tensioned after the concrete
has set, enhancing its load-bearing
capacity and durability.
Post-tensioning is a construction
technique that strengthens concrete by
embedding high-strength steel tendons,
which are tensioned after the concrete

capacity and durability.
Used in bridges, high-rise buildings, and heavy infrastructure projects.
Tendons are bonded to the concrete, improving load transfer and
structural durability. Enhances long-term performance and resistance to
cracking.
Benefits of Bonded Post Tensioning over Unbounded Post Tensioning
Stronger & More
Durable Structures
Reduces tensile stress, enhances load-bearing capacity, and ensures long-term integrity without maintenance.
Optimized &
Efficient Design
Tendons can be easily “woven,” minimizing reinforcement needs while allowing a more flexible engineering approach.
Advanced &
Reliable Technology
A sophisticated yet adaptable system that improves structural performance with superior bond strength.
Benefits of Post Tensioned Slabs over Conventional Slabs
Flexible &
Adaptive Design
Easily modify internal layouts with minimal structural constraints, allowing effortless partition placement or repositioning.
Faster & Cost-
Effective Construction
Quicker framework stripping,reduced reinforcement, thinner slabs, and lighter structures lower material, excavation, and maintenance costs.
Stronger & More
Durable Structures
Enhanced crack resistance, improved water tightness, andsuperior load-bearing capacity ensure long-term performance and reduced seepage.
Unbonded post-tensioning is a prestressing technique where grease-coated tendons in a plastic sheath allow independent movement within concrete, enhancing flexibility, efficiency, and structural performance. This method improves crack control and significantly extends the structure’s lifespan.
Benefits of KGN’s unbonded post tensioning include:
Superior
Flexibility
Minimizes stress,
enhances adaptability,
improves performance.
Faster
Construction
Reduces labor,
accelerates completion,
increases efficiency.
Cost-Effective
Solution
Saves materials,
lowers expenses,
optimizes budget.
Cost-Effective
Solution
Limits shrinkage,
improves durability,
prevents damage.
Corrosion
Protection
Shields tendons,
extends lifespan,
resists moisture.
Lightweight
& Efficient
Supports long spans,
optimizes space,
reduces weight.
A Void Post-Tension Slab is a type of reinforced concrete slab that
incorporates voids (usually created using lightweight materials such as
plastic or foam) to reduce the overall weight of the structure while
maintaining its strength and load-bearing capacity. This system
combines post-tensioning technology with strategically placed voids,
optimizing material usage.
Benefits of KGN’s Void Post Tension Slab
Improved
Insulation
Voids enhance thermal
and sound insulation
properties.
Lower
Maintenance
Enhanced durability
minimizes long-term repair
needs.
Faster
Construction
Reduces labor,
accelerates completion,
increases efficiency.
Versatile
Applications
Suitable for commercial,
residential, and
infrastructure projects.
Eco-
Friendly
Lower concrete use, reduced
waste, smaller carbon
footprint.
Cost
Savings
Less material, lower
foundation costs, reduced
labor, faster build.
A Post-Tension Raft is a foundation system that integrates post-
tensioning technology into a reinforced concrete raft to enhance
strength, reduce settlement, and optimize material use. It is ideal for
structures on weak or expansive soils, ensuring stability, durability, and
cost efficiency in construction projects.
Benefits of KGN’s Post Tension Raft
Higher Load
Capacity
Handles greater
structural loads with
improved stability.
Reduced
Excavation
Requires less soil
removal, saving time and
cost.
Less
Reinforcement
Congestion
Uses fewer
reinforcements,
simplifying construction.
Improved Water
Resistance
Tighter concrete reduces
permeability and moisture
impact
Settlement
Control
Adapts to uneven ground,
reducing structural stress and
damage.
Enhanced
Longevity
Increased durability
extends foundation
lifespan.
