Service

Tendons are considered as an external load (and the balance loading is assumed to be included in the load factors).
The reinforcement type (as defined in the design section or design strip segment) is considered (PT or RC).
The stress levels in the structure are determined by the moment envelope for the rule set (reinforcement may be required on both faces).
The design strip segment or design section property "Environment" is used to determine the exposure category of members as follows:
- Protected: Partial PT/RC, interior exposure
- Normal: Partial PT/RC, exterior exposure
- Corrosive: Full PT, 18.3.2(c)
- Very Corrosive: Full PT, 18.3.2(d)
Code Rules are applied as shown in the following table.

Table 1. Service rule mapping
Design System	RC	Partial PT	Full PT 18.3.2(c)	Full PT 18.3.2(d)
Beam	10.6.1	18.8.1, 18.8.3	18.8.1, 18.3.2(c)	18.8.1, 18.3.2(d)
One-Way Slab	10.6.1	18.8.1, 18.8.3	18.8.1, 18.3.2(c)	18.8.1, 18.3.2(d)
Two-Way Slab	(none)	(not applicable)	18.8.1, 18.3.2(c)	18.8.1, 18.3.2(d)
