RC beam Tapered bars - problem with self weight

1-Single bar - no problem

 

2-Single bar with tapered RC beam section already assigned and then divided at intersecting nodes - no problem

 

3-Sequence of bars assigned with another (regular) section and then I assign them to be that RC beam tapered section (bar SEQUENCE)  - Self weight is not generated.

 

4-BUT if I assign the tapered RC beam section to EACH bar of the sequence , then self weight will be generated

 

Tapered steel sections not affected by this problem.

 

I tried manually inserting the generated superbar into the load table but it is refused.

 

Any ideas??

 

thx!
