This standard specifies the terms and definitions, classification, codes and designation, order contents, dimension, shape, weight and allowable deviation, technical requirements, test methods, inspection rules, packaging, marking and quality certificate of steel wire for prestressing of concrete.
This standard applies to cold drawn or stress-relieved, low-relaxation, plain, helical rib and indented wires, for prestressing of concrete, in which the cold drawn wire is used only for pressure pipe. According to design and construction method, it is suitable to produce highly efficient prestressed concrete by pre-tensioning method and post-tensioning method.
