3) may be this answer is the most available one but i have to give an additional information about prestressed concrete design Sometimes we need to use traditional S420 steel or equivalent quality structural steel for resisting flexural stress especially in restrain area and it depends on bonding quantity of strands.

Prestressed concreteis a form ofconcreteused in construction which is "pre-stressed" by being placed undercompressionprior to supporting any loads beyond its own dead weight.This compression is produced by thetensioningof high-strength "tendons" located within or adjacent to the concrete volume, and is done to improve the performance of the concrete in service.
