Construction products detail
Unbonded tendons
For internal unbonded post-tensioning, the prestressing tendons are arranged in a duct filled with a special corrosion protection system. These post-tensioning systems are used for prestressing concrete members made of normal weight concrete. They are largely designed in accordance with DIN EN 1992-1-1:2011-01 in conjunction with DIN EN 1992-1-1/NA:2013.
Regulatory framework
DIBt grants national technical approvals (abZ) for post-tensioning systems and their components.
European Technical Assessments (ETAs) can also be issued for post-tensioning kits.
Please note that there are no conclusive technical rules for the design and execution of structural works using prestressing systems – except for pre-tensioning at the factory in accordance with DIN EN 1992‑1‑1:2011‑01, Clause 5.10. In cases which are relevant from a regulatory point of view, a construction technique permit (aBG) is generally required. DIBt grants general construction technique permits for prestressing applications.
Note: The lists below may still include approvals for a construction technique, also called 'application approvals'. As a result of the revision of the Model Building Code (MBO) in 2016 followed by the revision of the applicable Building Codes of the federal states (LBO), these are successively being replaced by construction technique permits or will expire.
National procedure
A national technical approval (abZ) and/or oder general construction technique permit (aBG) is granted upon application (see Model Building Code (MBO), Sections 16a(2) and18(2) and (4)). This also applies to amendments and supplements to, or renewals of existing approvals and/or construction technique permits.
No formal requirements apply. The following information is needed: name and address of the applicant, description of the product and/or construction technique and its field of use or application, type of decision required (new decision, amendment or supplement to, or renewal of, an existing decision).

European Technical Assessment (ETA)
To start the ETA procedure, please submit the form below. We will then check if the prerequisites for issuing an ETA are met, i.e., in particular, if the product is not fully covered by an existing harmonised standard. If the prerequisites are met, we will check whether a European Assessment Document (EAD) covering the requested assessment scope already exists or still needs to be developed. If an EAD needs to be developed or amended, a complete technical file needs to be established before the procedure can begin.
