RAM Concept: Tendons and Strands

Hi,

I've looked through the help topics and manual and still am confused. When in "Default Tendon Properties", what does RAM Concept mean by strands per tendon? Does it mean how many groups of 7-wire strands are anchored at the same location, or is it refering to the total amount of wires throughout all the 7-wire strands anchored at the same location? (For example, if I had 3, 7-wire strands anchored in one location, would that be 3 strands per tendon or 21 strands per tendon?)

In addition to that, is there a way I can see the total stress in individual tendons while the loads are applied to the concrete slab?
