a.Member thickness.
b.Cover to rebar and prestressing.

2)Computational Steps:
a.Geometry and structural system.
b.Material properties.
c.Loading.
d.Design parameters.
e.Actions due to dead and live loads.
f.Actions due to post-tensioning.
g.Stress check for serviceability.
h.Minimum passive reinforcement.
i.Strength calculation for bending.
j.Shear design.
k.Deflection check.
l.Stresses at transfer.
m.Tendon and reinforcement layout.
n.Computer solution.

Note: sorry again for my lack of skills in combining multiple pictures into a Pdf,I would greatly appreciate it if someone recommends Me how to do it on my profile comments.

Some tips and considerations:

1- Use JPG file format for the images, instead of BMP file format. It's 10x smaller!

2- To create a simple PDF file, like a book, use a PDF file generator, like doPDF. To use it, just install the virtual printer (doPDF), open your text editor, put each image in a single full page and print "as PDF".
