ITB contributes to industry innovation by
providing a post-tensioning technology for
reinforcing concrete. Before the concrete
is poured, post-tensioning tendons are
installed in the forms.
The cables are tensioned and fastened
to the concrete outside borders, once
the concrete has been proven to have
developed strength and before the service
loads are applied.
Benefits of post tensioned slabs include
layout and service flexibility, cost savings,
lighter structure, faster construction
(saving time), and so on.
Clients benefit the most from this low-
cost technology since it allows for bigger
open areas and boosts building efficiency
for contractors.
ITB is the pioneer of this innovation in
Nigeria.
The team provides shop drawings and stressing calculations, as well as safe installation
procedures, supplies, and jack calibrations that are traceable to international standards.
