Field of Application

Prestressed concrete strands are a commonly used high-strength material in engineering. Their core advantages are high strength, low relaxation, corrosion resistance, and convenient construction. They are mainly used in large bridges, long-span buildings, precast components, and heavy-duty structures, and can effectively improve crack resistance, stiffness, and durability.
