360 Market Updates’ “Prestressed concrete wire and strand market report” informs on leading countries/regions, opportunities, size, trends and forecasts, divided by company, country and application/type. The report also provides key statistics on the market status of the manufacturers. Artificial compression stress applied to neutralize tensile stress deployed by exterior force is known as prestress. The structures are called prestressed concrete (PC) and the wire or strand used here is known as PCwire or strand. When force is applied to the concrete, prestressing is introduced to counter the stresses resulting from the applied load. PC wires and strands are used as a medium to attain a force that can neutralize external forces such as stress or compression. The design and manufacture of high quality PC wires and strands has been a priority in the market, forming an integral element of bridges and building constructions.
