Refer to Tendon Profile for the tendon names automatically assigned when the Bridge Wizard is used to model the structure.

No: Sequential numbers for the purpose of producing the tendon coordinates

x: Tendon location in the x-axis; that is, the length of the element from the start of the element to the tendon location

y: Tendon location in the y-axis; that is, the distance from the center of the element to the tendon location

z: Tendon location in the z-axis; that is, the distance from the center of the element to the tendon location

At No equals '0', which is the starting point of the tendon, the Global Coordinates will be produced. The subsequent distance coordinates will be produced in the Element Local Coordinates relative to the center of the element (Offset defined in the Section dialog box).
