Construction—South America—Brazil—Bridges The beams were produced in a factory on the job site, and 5 Type 12-0.5" DSI Prepron Strand Post-Tensioning Tendons were installed in each segment. The strand tendons that were inserted in ducts were stressed using a jack supplied by DSI Prepron. Due to the very limited time frame, DSI Prepron and Acciona planned all the steps necessary for a faster construction progress. Thanks to the optimized workflow, DSI Prepron successfully carried out the complete stressing and grouting work on the tendons of the 70, 40m long prefabricated beams in only 3 weeks. Work at this major project has not yet been finished, and DSI Prepron continues to support Acciona with high-quality products and technical know-how.
