An end termination clamp for a tension member includes a linkage configured for connection to a structural element and a first plate opposite a second plate defining a space therebetween to accept the tension member. Each of the first and second plates have a linkage end connected to the linkage, a belt entrance end, and a main body extending between the linkage and belt entrance ends. The first and second plates respectively define first and second clamping surfaces configured to abut opposite sides of a tension member. The end termination clamp further includes at least one fastener connecting the first plate and second plate to clamp the tension member in the space therebetween. The first and second clamping surfaces are narrower than a width of the tension member at the belt entrance end of the first and second plates.
