Why AMSYSCO > PTI Certified Plant
PTI CERTIFIED PLANT & PROCESS



PTI-CERTIFIED PLANT

AMSYSCO's state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities are unrivaled.  The entire procurement, manufacturing and testing processes of AMSYSCO’s distinctive GREEN PT System is produced under the Post-Tensioning Institute’s rigorous plant certification program for Unbonded Tendons.

We offer a complete package for extruding the plastic sheathing onto the steel strand, cutting post-tensioning tendons and installing anchorage devices.  Our plant can service the entire nation and abroad.

 

AMSYSCO PROCESS

Our clients benefit from our laser-like focus on engineering support, customer service and product quality on unbonded post-tensioning projects. Our business philosophy is to invest up-front in quality to prevent problems on the jobsite. You benefit from a results-oriented organization driven to provide exceptional quality at competitive prices. Some examples include:

  • Two high-quality post-tensioned solutions unrivaled in the industry, AMSYSCO Monostrand PT System and AMSYSCO Encapsulated PT System
  • Premium grade high-density plastic sheathing manufactured using an advanced extrusion process
  • Utilization of more PT coating (grease) than required by specifications
  • Distinctive green tendons contrast with the PT coating and thereby draw attention to the quality of our product in both the plant and the field
  • Proprietary packaging of finished tendons to protect the sheathing during manufacturing, shipping and handling
  • Packing list to match tendon summary on the shop drawings
  • Color-coding of tendons for identification in the field
  • Special tie instead of metal tie wire to prevent cuts in the sheathing
  • Longer sleeves used for the encapsulated system to protect the strand if more plastic sheathing is cut in the field – saves the installer’s time for taping

 

STRESSING EQUIPMENT

As a standard practice, we service and calibrate the stressing equipment necessary to complete your PT installation successfully. A calibrated load cell is used to insure the proper gauge reading for stressing tendons. The load cell is certified at least once a year by an outside independent agency.
