You’ve spent months, maybe years, getting a project to where it is. Then the owner wants to cut a new opening, add a stair, or move a wall, and somebody says the words nobody wants to hear: “It’s post-tensioned. We can’t touch it.”
I’ve watched that one sentence stop jobs cold.
Here’s the truth. Most of the time, you can.
On Wednesday, October 21 at 12pm PST, my dad Rick Thompson is going live to show you how. Rick has spent about 50 years in post-tension systems, from floating bridges to high-rise towers to big retrofits. He’s seen just about every way a PT job can go sideways, and how to bring it back.
He’ll walk through Microsoft Building 122, where we modified a post-tensioned structure with no shoring and no trade delays. The team on that job had already put a ton into that building. Our job was to protect that work and keep it moving, not start over.
We’ll be talking about:
🔩 PT retrofits with no shoring
🔩 What you can change in a PT building, and the few things you can’t
🔩 4 checks to run before you accept that a change will shut the job down
🔩 PT repair, barrier cable, and specialty lifting
It’s one hour. 30 minutes of presentation, 30 minutes of your questions, answered live.
If you’re a structural engineer, GC, developer, or property manager, this one is for you. Bring the job that’s keeping you up at night.
