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 PT 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 PT 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.
