Anchor Cone And Plate

An anchor cone and plate are essential components in post-tensioning systems commonly used in reinforced concrete structures. The anchor cone is a conical metal element designed to grip and secure high-strength steel tendons or strands at the ends of a concrete member. It is typically inserted into a preformed recess in the concrete and works by mechanically locking the tensioned tendons in place. The anchor plate, also known as a bearing plate, is a flat steel plate that sits flush against the concrete surface and evenly distributes the tensioned forces from the tendons across the structure. This helps prevent localized cracking or failure by reducing concentrated stress at the anchorage zone.

Together, the anchor cone and plate ensure that the applied tension remains stable over time, enhancing the structural performance and durability of concrete elements. These components are widely used in the construction of bridges, high-rise buildings, parking structures, and industrial floors where long spans or heavy loads demand greater tensile strength. Made from high-grade steel, they are designed to resist corrosion and mechanical wear. Their proper installation and alignment are critical for the long-term success of any post-tensioned system, ensuring safety, load distribution, and structural integrity throughout the life of the structure.
