Prestressed Concrete - Milbury Systems

An illustration of prestressed concrete production by Milbury Systems an Eleco Company.
Prestressed concrete is a method of overcoming concrete's natural weaknesses. It can be used to produced longer spans than is practical with standard reinforced concrete.
Milbury Systems manufactures a number of precast and prestressed products.

Excellent pres-stressed concrete manufacturing process demonstration.

After leveling the concrete, what material is laying on top before heating.

[@carolinefernandez2552]

what is the use of reinforcements in them

[@ElecoChannel]

@1971SuperLead The prestressed panels are manufactured in our factory at Lydney.

[@nebiyuashagrie3238]

Does this method work for precast slab, with out pressing?

[@123456Matau]

What you used to take slab out this yellow thing?

[@1971SuperLead]

Is this done in a factory or at the job site?

[@kmed1994]

what is the role of heating ?

[@ElecoChannel]

The steel is stretched then cast into the concrete (not taken out). The tension on the bars add the strength. A similar concept to trying to bend rope that is pulled very tight.

[@Piyakarnt]

what is red rod?

[@ElecoChannel]

It is an insulation cover that is rolled out.

[@baramabimo2397]

how lifted without removing joint strips

[@ElecoChannel]

@nuzparveen4 The red rods are for heating the beds

[@kmed1994]

oh, thanks for the tip ;)

[@ElecoChannel]

@Piyakarnt The Red rods are heating to cure the concrete

[@ElecoChannel]

The role of heating allows for the concrete to cure at a consistent temperature to ensure maximum quality; unlike when curing on-site. The heat also accelerates the curing process.

[@nzawawi92]

what purpose for heating? is that compulsory?

[@mikodwm3371]

Not rlly but it saves time

[@ElecoChannel]

Yes we are working out magic :)

[@oz93666]

Since you're heating the concrete, why not use the the tension bars as heating elements? they would expand without the need to applying tension ,when set and cooled it would be the same as prestressing. Adjust the current in the bars to get required amount of 'prestressing'.

[@abhishekdev4122]

expansion due to heating isn't enough. still we require to sretch it.

[@ElecoChannel]

Prestressed concrete will fail if the structural calculations are incorrect. Our prestressed panels and floor slabs have been calculated, engineered and regularly tested to ensure they will never fail for the intended use.

[@silverscrew]

Do u actually make the machine?

[@ElecoChannel]

This is the prestressing process. Milbury, now owned by FP McCann makes the concrete.

[@MrBadabimbadabam]

They should first release the tension and then cut the tendons.

Prestressed Concrete structure

[@ne1410is2day]

great vid but would be better if i heard talk

[@rinisalmiarni7901]

R.C beam powers????thanks.KPAD.

[@ElecoChannel]

Do you mean Reinforced Concrete? This is prestressed which is slightly different to normal RC. Prestressing puts the reinforcement under tension which provides significantly greater strength.

haha woah, there she blows

[@gtcgtc5969]

Roung

[@tird108]

idfk know man but that fucking lifting hook was deffinetly not OSHA approved lmfao look like it came straight out the butchers freezer! meat hook for crying out loud!

[@kompshi]

no explanation...........this video is not useful much.

[@PacoOtis]

pitiful
