LRPC (Low Relaxation Pre-stressed Concrete)
LRPC (Low Relaxation Pre-Stressed Concrete) Steel Strands are used in prestressing concrete for construction of bridge beams, shopping centers, car parks and high rise buildings, highways, roads and other various types of structures. Pre-stressed Steel Strand when embedded in concrete, releases some applied stress exponentially. They are sturdy and possess weather resistant properties. We are the Authorised Distributor of PC wires and LRPC in Maharashtra and we ensure the availability of PC Wire and Low Relaxation Prestressed Concrete(LRPC) steel should be in sufficient volumes in Maharashtra.
Strength of LRPC:
- Post-tensioned Structures : Uncoated or galvanized strands are the ideal component for large concrete post-tensioned structures such as bridges, parking structures and high rise buildings
- Precast Elements : Carries consistent mechanical properties and are widely used for production of various precast elements, including structural members
- Cable Stay Bridges : Increase the safety and reliability of your stay cable structure with highly ductile, high tensile strands
- Cable Mining Bolts : LRPC reinforcing strand has the flexibility, high resistance and low linear weight needed to anchor closed or open-pit structures. Bolts are available uncoated or galvanized and can be used as tensioned or intentioned anchors
Benefits of LRPC
- Better Performance at elevated temperature
- Reduces project cost by decreasing the number of anchorages, sheathings, wedges and labor
- Lowers the concrete requirement due to reduced size of structural members
- Eliminates the necessity of extra post straightening treatment with thermo-mechanical processing
- Less Relaxation Loss
- Higher Breaking Loads
- Higher Fatigue and corrosion resistance
- Higher Proof Loads
- Higher Fatigue and corrosion resistance
