🔹 What Is Post‑Tension Concrete?
Post‑tensioning is a technique where high‑strength steel tendons are tensioned after the concrete is poured and cured. Unlike traditional rebar, which passively resists cracks, post‑tension actively compresses the slab, preventing cracks before they form.
Key benefits:
- Superior crack control
- Reduced slab thickness (saves material costs)
- Longer spans without joints
- Enhanced durability against soil movement and heavy loads

🔹 Why Choose Post‑Tension for Courts?
Courts demand precision and longevity. Post‑tension slabs provide:
- Smooth, stable surfaces for acrylic coatings and resurfacing
- Resistance to shifting soils, common in Utah and surrounding regions
- Lower maintenance costs over the life of the court
- Compatibility with fencing and lighting installations, ensuring a solid base for add‑ons
