Strength

Tendons are considered as an internal section force (and the hyperstatic 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 (failure could occur on both faces).

See "Torsion Considerations" for an explanation how torsion is implemented.

Code Rules are applied as shown in the following table.
