Freyssinet Australia provides technically and economically efficient post-tensioning solutions tailored specifically for water and wastewater tank projects. Our fully integrated post-tensioning solutions include feasibility studies, design and engineering, construction methods, material and equipment supply, technical support, and on-site implementation to ensure successful project delivery.

  • Applications
  • Waste water treatment plant, such as clarifier, settlement tank and oxidation ditches
  • Water storage, such as potable water reservoirs, elevated reservoir and fire storage
  • Desalination plant, such as clear water storage

Our solutions

Freyssinet Australia’s prestressing and anchorage systems are renowned for their durability and high performance, thanks to stringent control over component production. Our product range includes the Freyssinet S Range system, ideal for orthogonal post-tensioning in slabs and vertical post-tensioning in walls, and the Freyssinet C Range system, designed specifically for horizontal post-tensioning in walls.

Freyssinet provides specialised heavy lifting and handling solutions for wastewater tank construction and maintenance. Using precision-controlled hydraulic systems, we safely lift and position large structural components, ensuring efficiency, safety, and minimal disruption on site.

Freyssinet’s post-tensioning solutions improve the structural performance and long-term durability of wastewater tanks.

Freyssinet offers seismic protection solutions to safeguard wastewater tanks against earthquake-induced stresses. Using advanced technologies such as seismic bearings and energy dissipation systems, we enhance structural resilience, reduce damage risk, and ensure continued operation during and after seismic events.

Advantages of post-tensioned concrete tanks for water application:

Freyssinet’s solutions adapt to a variety of tank shapes, rectangular, circular, or elliptical and suit above-ground or buried installations. Tanks can be precast on or off site, or cast in situ to meet project needs.

Reduced concrete and reinforcement quantity in comparison to traditional reinforced concrete

Ensures permanent residual compression to maintain watertight integrity.

Crack-free construction with fewer joints means reduced maintenance compared to steel tanks, eliminating the need for coatings.
