Hello.. When I enter the beam settings, it gives an (ab) warning as in the image, but this is not reflected in the report. What does this EU warning mean?
 
It means that the controls given in TDY 2018 clause 7.4.3.1(b) are not provided for those beams. From TBDY 2018: a+b>=lb should be b>=12fi a>=0.4lb. Beam parameters:
 
Depending on the situation, you have to decide which one does not. The issue is related to b beam height, a related to the width of the column on which the beam is supported, and the longitudinal reinforcement diameter of the beam. 1) To achieve a+b>lb, you must increase the column width and/or beam height. In general, it is sufficient to increase the column width. 2) You have to increase the column width to get a>0.4lb. 3) To achieve b>12fi, you must reduce the rebar diameter.
