Design check:
Select Bottom most GF column Double click the column concrete
design.
Check whether the column fails or not. If some column fails in GF,
change the size of column and again run the analysis, Similarly check
beam by double click the particular beam for finding the reinforcement,
if all are passed ok. Otherwise revise the section. See whether the
reinforcement of tension is as per code permissible limit. Also check the
compression reinforcement is less than 4.0cm2 . if not slightly alter the
beam section until the compression reinforcement < 4.0cm 2.
