State the term - transverse force on concrete

We know that in pre-stressed concrete, tendons are placed in a stretched condition and they always would try to regain their original reduced length. A curved profile of tendons gives a larger length to the stretched tendons compared to their straight length between two points. Due to their curved profile and their tendency to regain their original length, tendons apply a transverse force on concrete.
