PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED To provide a lift off testing method of an anchor capable of re tensioning various anchors and improving efficiency and safety of testing work SOLUTION This method re tensions the anchors by pulling an anchor plate F5 for supporting an anchor head part and an anchoring tool for anchoring this part and is constituted to re tension the anchor LIFT OFF TEST PROCEDURE INTRODUCTION O Fauria Rey Download PDF Download Full PDF Package This paper A short summary of this paper 24 Full PDFs related to this paper READ PAPER LIFT OFF TEST PROCEDURE INTRODUCTION Download LIFT OFF TEST PROCEDURE INTRODUCTION On site to verify and monitor post tensioning of elevated post tension PT deck noted as Level 1 Pour 2 The equipment used was sets 2068 calibrated on 06 24 21 to 5350 psi and 2142 calibrated on 07 8 21 to 5350 psi Note All 3 day breaks were over 4000 psi Post Tensioned Slabs on Ground Re leased in 1998 by the Post Tension ing Institute the new manual was developed by PTI s Committee for do a lift off test to verify the force in a tendon after it has been stressed and how to resolve com mon problems with the jacking equipment Lift off A field procedure used to determine the actual force in a tendon at the point where the procedure is executed Partial stressing Stressing of tendons to a force less than the full jacking force before the concrete reaches the concrete strength

In practically all constructions the post tensioning is fine tuned to balance a fraction of the member s self weight typically 50 to 80 – not more than the member s total weight at stressing Hence the slab will not lift off the form support Extreme fiber bending stresses will form only if stressing results in a change in slab POST TENSION DESIGN The art and science of reinforcing concrete with post tensioning systems is always evolving PTE keeps up with the latest developments and best practices providing that expertise to architects and structural engineers who are considering post tensioning for their projects With the support of our in house state of the art † Perform a lift off teston selected tendons to con firm that the drop back pressure corresponds to the length of tendon being stressed It is not necessary to perform this operation on all of the tendons that are out of tolerance at this time At this point you are looking for a cause not a solution Cement paste in the wedgeand remaining life of the anchors are unknown One procedure used to test post tensioned tendons involves lift off tests which are both dangerous and expensive The applicability of lift off testing to most existing ground anchorage is severely restricted to the very few existing ground anchorsDownload scientific diagram Typical lift off test defining the lift off load for anchor H65 at Hely Hutchinson Dam from publication SUSTAINABILITY OF POST TENSIONED CABLES TO STRENGTHEN
