Deflection and Vibration Control
Because of their draped configuration, the tendons in a post-tensioned structure carry much of the load directly to the columns. This reduces flexural deflections in the framing system. Due to post-tensioning, the entire concrete section is effective in resisting load effects. In conjunction with the redundancy of monolithic concrete framing systems, this reduces vibrations of the completed structure.
