Pre-tensioning (high strength) cable

[DRW75]

Hey people,
I am looking for some material properties for some typical high strength pre(or post) tensioning cables. I seem to recall the typ yeild strength for this material to be in the order of 1000 MPa (140 ksi).

Thanks

Commonly used steel cables today have typical values like this-

UTS 1860 MPa
YPS 1670 MPa

Ciao.

Thanks flamby...
I was pretty sure it was high, but when I started to think about 1000+ MPa, I was starting to second guess myself... And after a quick internet search, I didn't find anything immediately - So I came here.

Cheers
