The column is throwing too much reinforcement, can you help?

Hello, S14 column on the ground floor is forced by earthquake forces. As a result of the calculation, 2.15% reinforcement is required in the column. After the building is freed from the basement, it is normal to have such a situation on the ground floor due to the static design. You can increase the column size to reduce the reinforcement ratio. I recommend that you check the geometry in the model and take into account the errors and warnings. In addition, the index is given as S14 column on the ground floor and S7 column on the 1st basement floor. I suggest you do the naming from the beginning.
 
I looked at your project. I assume you're talking about the column in the corner of the stairwell. Column s7 in the basement on the ground floor, s14 in the ground, s1 in the 1st floor and s3 in the tower. I don't know how it is architecturally, but if you reverse the column sizes you mentioned, you won't have a problem. You didn't pass axes through the columns. If you place the columns at the axis intersections, the drawings will be more understandable, and in such cases, with the reverse column sizes command, you can reverse the column sizes on all floors at once. You can easily translate and test whether you have made the right choice by making an account. Also; There are curtains in the system, the R coefficient you entered from the beginning is incorrect. I couldn't understand why there is a need to make curtains if there is so much space on the curtain in the basement on the front and back facades. Again I suggest reviewing the loads (beam, slab). Enter stairs instead of flooring into the stairwell. You are already solving the semi-rigid diaphragm, solve the ladder together with the structure. N.YILMAZ
 
Thank you for your suggestions. It stayed that way because I deleted and added the naming column. I made it to test the r coefficient, normally 7 is used. It is a requirement of the municipality for the basement to be completely curtained.
