PT Slab onions

Here is a photo for the phase 1 guys.  We talked on site about the PT tendons.  This is what the dead end of the PT tendons looks like with the splayed onion end in order to anchor the tendon in the slab.  The spring like coil of reinforcement is for bursting.  Enjoy Ex Waterloo.  Rich

    Thanks Rich. No sign of the sheath, I would have expected to see them running throiugh to the end of the bursting reinforcement. Surely they are not being threaded onto the in-situ tendons?

      You are very right. The ducts are just out of shot. I’ll post another pic of the ducts.
