There are six object types in the Tendon Parameters Layer:

• Banded Tendon Polyline - a polyline representing a specification for generation of a group of tendons at a fixed spacing and parallel to the polyline segments.
• Distributed Tendon Quadrilateral - a quadrilateral representing a specification for generation of an array of tendons at a specified angle within the shape.
• Distributed Tendon Overlap - a graphical only object that displays the cumulative force or number of strands in an area of overlapping distributed tendon quadrilaterals.
• Tendon Void - a polygon shape that represents an area where no tendons are to be generated. Typical usage might be stressing blockouts or small slab areas that are too short for tendons to get stressed.
• Profile Polyline - a polyline that defines a tendon elevation at the location where any banded tendon polyline or distributed tendon quadrilateral intersects it.
• Jack Region – a polygon shape with jack properties that applies a jack on the generated tendon layer to all generated tendon ends that are contained within it.
