What Reinforcements are used in the Process of Prestressing?
Water proofing is done using shotcrete not concrete. Basement should be built using concrete . Water proofing can also be done by polymer membrane systems called tanking ( refer to CIRIA). I used ACI 506 to design shotcrete. Its should be of 28Mpa strength using 12mm down aggregates.

Reinforcements used in the process of prestressing:
Especially in case of prestressing, we are using strands of Steel and it’s called tendons.
Tendons are made of high strength Steel.
Three major types of reinforcements which are used in Prestressing:
Combination of reducing the structural thickness reduced conventional reinforcements quantities and fast construction often results in un prestressed structure.
Thank You.
