column (at bottom portion) Double click the columnConcrete design. Check the

bottom most storey column. If some columns in GF inner are failed, change the size of

the column for inner portion and again run the analysis, verify the result. Similarly

check the beam by double click the particular beam for find the reinforcement. If all are

passed ok. Otherwise revise the beam section if failed.
