Post-tensioning (P-T) dates back to the beginning of the twentieth century but was not seen in the United States until the construction of a bridge in 1949. In the 1960s, with the development of higher strength steel, better attachment hardware, better construction techniques, and simplified design methods, the use of P-T to reinforce structures became more popular. By the early 1990s the mystery of P-T subsided with further refinements to the tensioning process, the development of more corrosion-resistant anchorages, and the widespread dissemination of design software. Because of these factors, P-T has become a preferred method for reinforcing concrete today.
