The rebars are completed. This training example doesn’t require any tendon definition; the below steps explain how to add a tendon layout to the section.
23
To add tendon to your section click Tendon  at the Shapes tab.
24
After you import the material for the tendon and add the tendon to your section, you can rearrange the coordinates of the tendon.

Also, you can use a parametric relationship as input for Y1=d/2-10 (d = depth of the section). The position of the rebar depends on the section depth.
