This manual contains updated information on the current practices in the use, design, and construction of post- tensioning. The 6th Edition has been extensively rewritten and expanded from the 5th Edition. The Manual contains 12 new chapters that give design guidance on modern applications of post-tensioning. All of the original chapters have been totally revised and modified to reflect the current industry practices. New topics include Seismic Design, Post-Tensioned Concrete Floors, Parking Structures, Slab-on-Ground, Bridges, Stay Cables, Storage Structures, Barrier Cables, Dynamic and Fatigue, Durability, Inspection and Maintenance, and Field and Plant Certification. The Manual provides the industry standard for design and construction of post-tensioned structures. This book is an invaluable resource for practicing engineers, architects, students, educators, contractors, inspectors, and building officials. The 6th Edition of the Post-Tensioning Manual provides basic information and the essential principles of post-tensioning.
