3.1
pre-fabricated parallel wire strand
PPWS
strand factory pre-fabricated by assembling a group of wires laid parallel in a hexagonal (regular or irregular) shape, bound together at intervals by binding tape, and fitted with sockets (3.3) at each end
Note 1 to entry: The section and the structure of PPWS is shown in Figure 1.
3.2
binding tape
plastic tape reinforced by plastic fibres
Note 1 to entry: The tapes are bound at intervals to keep the shape of strand tight and can permit the wires to open or spread sufficiently to adjust the stresses in the strand during reeling and unreeling.
3.3
socket
PPWS (3.1) termination incorporating a socket basket (3.5), see Figure 2
Note 1 to entry: Length adjusting system shall be provided at connection between PPWS socket and anchorage structure.
3.4
socketing medium
molten metal alloy or resin
3.5
socket basket
tapered portion of a socket (3.3) within which the evenly splayed out wires are secured
3.6
PPWS grade
R m
level of requirement of nominal tensile strength grade which is designated by a number EXAMPLE 1 770, 1 960.
Note 1 to entry: PPWS (3.1) strength grade correspond to the strength grades of the wires in the PPWS. It is expressed in MPa.
3.7
nominal wire diameter
d nominal diameter of the perpendicular cross-section of the steel wire after coating
Note 1 to entry: It is expressed in millimetres.
4 Designation of product
The PPWS shall be ordered in accordance with this document and be designated as follows:
a) ISO 19427;
b) PPWS;
c) nominal diameter of steel wire, in millimetres;
d) number of steel wires composing PPWS;
e) PPWS grade;
f) coating type:
EXAMPLE 1 A PPWS made up of 91 pieces of zinc coated steel wires with diameter of 5 mm and grade of 1770,is designated:
ISO 19427-PPWS-5,00-91-1770-Zn
where Zn is hot-dip zinc coated.
EXAMPLE 2 A PPWS made up of 127 pieces of zinc-aluminium alloy coated steel wires with diameter of 7 mm and grade of 1860, is designated:
ISO 19427-PPWS-7,00-127-1860-ZnAl
where ZnAl is zinc-aluminium alloy coated.
5 Requirements
5.1 Traceability
The traceability shall be done from the beginning to the end of manufacturing. The manufacturer shall use suitable means to ensure the conformity of products and identify the status of products with respect to monitoring and measurement requirements throughout production and delivery.
The manufacturer shall control the unique identification of the products, and shall retain the documented information necessary to enable traceability.
