Bolt Tensioning
-
Bolt tensioning is a critical procedure in the process of connecting monopiles to transition pieces (TP), ensuring structural stability, load transfer efficiency, and long-term durability in marine environments.
KBETS leverages its state-of-the-art bolt tensioners, operated by certified professionals trained through the ECITP program, to provide precise tension adjustments and efficient bolt connection methods up to a maximum tension of 3000 kN. This guarantees robust and reliable structural connections, even under harsh offshore conditions.
