The Hoyer’s system of prestressing proves to be economical for ___________ Correct Answer Post tensioning system

The post tensioning system was considered as economical when compared to pre tensioning system, when used for larger spans due to this reason pre tensioning system was replaced by post tensioning system, for mass production of pretensioned elements, the long line process developed by Hoyer is generally used in the factory and in this method the tendons are stretched several hundred meters apart so that a number of similar units may be cast along the same group of tensioned wires.
