Code-control for HSQ (Beam for hollow core slabs)

[Hallvard]

Hi

I have been trying to do a control for a steel-beam accoridng to the design code. The cross-section is defined with data for webs and flanges.

The calculation of the model works fine, but when I try to calculate according to code Robot returns an error. Something like: "The cross-section does not fit the current code".

How do I make Robot perform code-calculations for custom cross-ssections?
