Concrete Design

(OP)
How do we know that the concrete column, beam, shearwall passed after running the concrete design? I have no problems with steel design because there is option to verify if the structure passed the design, unlike the concrete structure it has no option for that, thanks!

RE: Concrete Design

The easiest way I have found to check if Concrete shearwalls fail (rather than right-clicking on each one individually) is to do to File>Print Tables. Print the output summary of the shearwall design table, and it will tell if each pier fails in shear or flexure.
For concrete beams and columns just look for the red ones. You can change the utilization limit at which they turn red (0.95 is default) by going to Options>preferences>Concrete frame design.
