Repair Methods
Post-Tension Cable Repair
Post-tension cable repair involves locating, exposing, de-tensioning, splicing or replacing, and re-stressing broken or corroded post-tensioned steel tendons embedded in elevated concrete slabs.
This is a common failure point in older Florida parking garages. Costal Concrete performs PT repairs on parking garages, elevated slabs, and balconies following ICRI post-tensioned garage repair guidance.
We coordinate access, traffic control, and temporary shoring when required, then restore tendon continuity and re-stress to design values before patching and protecting the repair zone.
Early PT intervention prevents progressive strand failure, limits slab deflection, and protects adjacent bays from cascading distress in chloride-exposed elevated decks.
