Only the stresses at the bottom and top of the precast beam itself will be computed.
From page 547...
... Prestress Losses At Release: At release, two components of prestress loss are significant: relaxation of the prestressing steel and elastic shortening. Elastic shortening is the loss of prestress that results when the strands are detensioned and the precast beam shortens in length due to the applied prestress.
From page 548...
... In pretensioned bridge girder design, stresses have traditionally been assessed at two timeframes: at release of prestress (i.e., when the prestress force is applied to the girder) and at final (long-term)
