Hi,
I developed small macro with custom functions which will help to create quasi T & L r.c. beams in accordance with the Artur's proposal mentioned in threads:

Just input data in green cells and select the desired type of section to generate it in Robot. A section will be created with the special name. For example:

Hi Roman,
As usual "TOP CLASS" member.
Thanks a lot for your API.
Macro was significantly modified in accordance with ACI 318-14 p.8.4.1.8

Sounds great, but how can someone actually use it?
Can someone please describe a step by step procedure? and at which stage of the design someone can use it?
Is it something like this you want:
1. Decide what code to use, EC og ACI - ACI seem to have less parameter input than EC.
2. Input necassary parameters to find the L/T beam ratio.
3. Export your section to Robot from Excel
4. Create a slab in RSAP (Dimensions should have been thaught about when creating your section in Excel from point 2)
5. Create beams, with the section you created in Excel, in your slab.
6. Apply boundary conditions
7. Calculate
hi. Romanich. I do not understand the value of x? Why are 2, 3, 4. I'm just a beginner. Thank you!

Is it in Romanic 'spider Pro for Robot'? I am Vietnamese. Have you worked in Vietnam?
Xin chào @ledinhchinh0409,
Yes and yes. I have been working in Vietnam approximately 1 year, in HCM. If you have an open position, just drop me a line. My bags are already packed.

Thank you very much for sharing the API.
Can someone also share the API for Rectangular beams please?
