Patent

CA 2265193

There is provided a device and method for testing the tension in a stressed cable of a concrete structure. The device includes a frame; a hydraulic jack mounted onto the frame, said jack for applying a force to the stressed cable and displacing the stressed cable laterally; a hook or clamp connected to the jack for grasping the stressed cable in order to apply the force thereto; and a dial gauge mounted onto the frame for measuring the deflection of the stressed cable once the force has been applied. The amount of pre-stress within the stressed cable can be calculated by measuring the amount of deflection caused to the stressed cable by the force of the jack.
