Abstract: A powder coating composition for PC strand coating which, when used for the coating of a PC strand, can advantageously form a coating film having an even thickness at low cost without causing uneven thickness or stringness is disclosed. The powder coating composition of this invention for PC strand coating is characterized by having a melt viscosity of 3,000-15,000 poise.

Abstract: There is provided a strand that can reduce the trouble in constructing an object to which compression force is applied by the strand and that can keep the construction cost down. A strand 1 is placed in a bore hole provided in a wall or roof surface, and is gripped by a wedge in a tensioned state so as to apply a tensile force to the wall or roof surface. The strand 1 of the present invention includes a pipe-shaped member (corrugated tube 11) made of metal, and a plurality of metal wires 12 arranged on the outer periphery of the corrugated tube 11. The metal wires 12 are arranged to surround the corrugated tube 11 on the cross section of the corrugated tube 11.

Abstract: In one aspect, the present disclosure relates to a high-strength prestressing strand having a seven-wire structure in which one core wire and six outer wires are stranded. An external diameter of the strand is from 15.0 mm to 16.1 mm, a total cross-sectional area of the strand is 135 mm2 or more, and a load at 0.2% permanent elongation is 266 kN or more. A relaxation value measured after a 1000-hour relaxation test is 2.5% or lower and a diameter of the core wire is 5.35±0.3 mm and a diameter of the outer wires is 5.15±0.25 mm. The core wire and the outer wires each have a composition of at least 0.90% carbon. The prestressing strand is manufactured by stranding the core wire and outer wires, giving a stretching treatment, and giving a bluing treatment at a temperature of 380° C. or more and 430° C. or less after or at the same time with the stretching treatment.

Abstract: The present invention provides a prestressing strand that has higher strength and is more suitable for practical use than known prestressing strands, and a concrete construction using the prestressing strand. The prestressing strand that has higher strength and is more suitable for practical use than known prestressing strands has a seven-wire structure in which one core wire and six outer wires are stranded and can be made by adjusting the external diameter to 15.0 mm to 16.1 mm, the total cross-sectional area to 135 mm2 or more, and the load at 0.2% or 0.1% permanent elongation to 266 kN or more.
