What is the reinforcement output of ETABs? is it minimum or it is based on the Code provided in the modelling? Why i always get 1% reinforcement in columns while i design.

As’salamualaikum Sir, I wanted to know if the long term and short term deflection of Slab needs to be checked at serviceability condition or design condition. I mean, do we need to use the stiffness modifiers of Serviceability condition for ...Read more
