About Us

Certified Post Tension (CPT) specializes in the supply of high-strength post-tension cables, a critical component in modern concrete construction. These robust steel tendons are strategically embedded within concrete structures, and after the concrete has reached its required strength, are tensioned (stressed) to impart significant compressive forces. This pre-compression dramatically enhances the structural integrity, load-bearing capacity, and long-term durability of various construction projects.  

Key benefits and applications of post-tension cables include:

• Increased Span Lengths: Post-tensioning allows for the creation of longer, column-free spans in buildings, bridges, and parking garages, providing greater design flexibility and usable space.
• Reduced Concrete Volume: In most cases, post-tensioning enables thinner slabs and optimized designs, which can reduce concrete volume, leading to potential cost savings and a reduced environmental footprint.
• Enhanced Crack Control: The compressive forces introduced by post-tensioning effectively minimize cracking in concrete, improving the structure’s resistance to water penetration and corrosion.
• Improved Structural Performance: Post-tensioned structures exhibit superior resistance to seismic loads, wind forces, and other stresses, ensuring greater safety and longevity.
• Faster Construction Cycles: In some cases, post-tensioning can expedite construction timelines by allowing for earlier formwork removal and accelerated construction progress.

Certified Post Tension provides expert solutions for a wide range of projects, including:

• High-Rise Buildings: Achieving slender designs and maximizing floor space.
• Parking Garages: Optimizing space and minimizing the need for internal columns.
• Slabs-on-Grade Foundations: Enhancing stability and reducing the risk of settlement.
• Commercial and Industrial Structures: Providing robust and efficient building solutions.
