Hi all,
do you think is it possible in Robot 2011 to change the shape code of the reinforcement in a RC beam?
If I use the Eurocode for calculating the reinforcement in a beam, Robot uses the shape code 31 for stirrups. It does not look nice when scheduling the bars, because the stirrup shape looks open.
In the Reinforcement pattern dialoge box (see attachment) only shape code 31 is allowed.

If i change the design code to ACI, Robot uses the shape code T1 which looks good.

Is there a way to change the default shape code for stirrups for Eurocode?

thanks
