State about the pre-tensioned concrete

In pre-tensioned concrete, the tendon stresses are transferred  to concrete by  virtue of bond  of concrete to the  surface of steel tendons. As mentioned carlier, the bond strength of concrete with steel depends on the grade or characteristic strength of concrete. So  to transfer a high value of force from tendons to concrete it  is essential to have concrete of a high  strength.
