• Wedges

• Anchorage plate

• Casting Trumpet

• Duct

ESS PT system, by embedding the anchorage plate inside the trumpet, and forming asingle integrated piece that functions like a large wedge, you’re likely addressing
several key technical challenges:
1. Reduced Stress Concentration: The integrated design can help in distributing the stresses more evenly across the anchorage zone, minimizing the risks of localized
stress points or potential failure areas.
2. Simplified Installation: By combining the anchorage plate and trumpet into one piece, you’re likely streamlining the installation process, reducing the number of
components, and making it easier for contractors to work with, which also cuts down on installation time and costs.
3. Increased Durability: An all-in-one design ensures fewer joints and connections, reducing the possibility of failure points due to wear and tear, corrosion, or other
environmental factors.
4. Improved Structural Performance: The wedge-shaped geometry allows for a more efficient transfer of post-tensioning forces into the concrete slab, improving the overall structural behavior of the system.
