Meadow Burke introduces the custom designed Prestress Strand Caddy. Simple by design, it allows prestress beam and other prestress product producers to insert the Strand Spacer into the form after positioning your prestress strands in place. The Prestress Strand Caddy keeps the strands separated and spaced in the proper locations before, during and after the placement of concrete. Made to order based on your specific strand, strand patterns and product width. To design your Prestress Strand Caddy see the Specification Sheet located in the Precast section on our website.
