Cables de soporte y de tensión
Los cables de alambre de acero mantienen los postes de acero y las redes de anillos Rocco en la posición correcta con respecto al terreno. Las redes de anillos se fijan con grilletes a los cables de soporte inferiores y superiores. Los postes de acero se anclan al suelo lateralmente mediante cables de tensión y por detrás mediante cables de soporte. Dependiendo del potencial de peligro y de la energía, estos cables pueden ser dobles o incluso cuádruples y con unos diámetros de entre 12 y 22 mm.

cable de post-tensionado


Explanation:
El término se utiliza para indicar los cables con los cuales se va a aplicar tensión a un elemento prefabricado de concreto (u hormigón, dependiendo del país). En el caso del post-tensionado, este se hace, como su nombre lo indica, después de vaciado el elemento. Por el contrario, el pre-tensionado se aplica a los cables que van a estar embebidos en el elemento estructural antes que el concreto sea vaciado.
