Abstract
A method and system are described for tensioning structural strandsof a tendon in a duct. Each strandis fitted with its own load cell, so that the individual tension values in each individual strandcan be measured during the tensioning of the strands. The load cellsmay be removed after tensioning, or left in situ to enable ongoing monitoring of the tension in the strands. The load cellsmay be calibrated simultaneously by tensioning the strandsto an equal tension using individual jacks, then normalizing the signals from each load cellto the known equal tension value. A further calibration to a global strand load measurement may also be performed.
