when I use RCDC, the column failed to crack-width,but I want to know the result of failed column crack-width value and calcute to deside how to update the model, update Longitudinal reinforcement or stirrup

Currently in Column Design, RCDC has a limit on the maximum value of the effective length factor and users cannot modify this limit value 5. I want RCDC to lift the restriction on this factor. In my case as per attached staad, Column effective len...

Design of raft foundation in RCDC FE/RAM concept doesn't report about the stability of foundation like against overturning, sliding, max.base pressure etc

We are really appreciate that rebar 6 and 9 mm were added to RCDC recently(update2023). But we would like to request another function that the fy can be assigned to specific rebar number and also differ to each rebar. For example, If we have RB 9m...
