Abstract
A cable bending limiting arrangement is provided for an anchoring unit including an anchorage, a cable including a plurality of wires and/or strands extending in a tensioned manner from the anchorage, a compacting clamp unit adapted for compacting the wires and/or strands to a side-by-side arrangement and located at a predetermined distance from the anchorage, and a recess pipe surrounding the cable in at least a portion of the predetermined distance. The cable bending limiting arrangement includes a cable bending limiting device adapted for being located axially inside the recess pipe and radially between an outer surface of the cable and an inner surface of the recess pipe leaving an annular gap of a predetermined radial width if the longitudinal axis of the cable extends substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the anchorage.
