Abstract: The invention can be used in producing prestressed reinforcement for reinforcing items made of concrete and provides maximally strong adhesion to concrete in any potentially possible direction of displacement, and a high level of specific strength, relaxation resistance and fatigue resistance. In a reinforcement wire having a spiral profile, three ruled surfaces, separated from one another by the areas of the cylindrical surface, are applied on the surface of the wire along a spiral line. Trapezoidal projections are disposed on the ruled surfaces at an incline in a direction reversed to the direction of the spiral line along which the ruled surfaces themselves are arranged.

Abstract: The invention pertains to the production of cables and can be used for reinforcing single-block constructions and other articles made of concrete. The purpose of the invention is to create a self-rectifying reinforcing member. The reinforcement cable comprises a central wire and layer-forming wires spirally wound around the same and having a periodical profile. A periodical profile is applied on the outer section of the surface of the layer-forming wires and is made in the form of inclined protrusions above the generatrix of the crimped surface of the cable. The sections of the surface of the layer-forming wires in contact with other wires are made in the form of spirally-arranged planar flats.

The sections of the surface of the layer-forming wires in contact with other wires are made in the form of spirally-arranged planar flats. The cable is secured at the base of the structure and is attached upon each casting cycle between the previously-formed portion of the structure and a distribution matrix. The cable is supplied via bypass rollers and a guiding trough from reels arranged at the base.
