EQUIVALENTLOAD
Harped Tendon can be sized and placed such that the upward
force exerted by the tendon at midspan exactly balances the
applied concentrated load

EQUIVALENTLOAD
Parabolic Tendon can be sized and placed such that the upward
force exerted by the tendon along the length of the member exactly
balances the applied uniformly distributed load
