Rc column
I'm not sure if I understand the situation correctly. Could you attach some screen captures that illustrate it in more detailed way? Thank you.

The value of 8 mm you refer to seems to be the value of the imperfection rather than the displacement. The RC Design module in Robot doesn't calculate displacements as in most of the cases they are 'influenced' by the behavior of the whole structure (building).

Accepted solution
What about beam and slab deflection? Will such deflection be calculated in
Robot or not?
Yes, they are.
Is is very strange that Robot can't calculate the displacement! When I made
the column longer, I got lager displacement! Are you sure that (8mm) is not
the displacement. Is there any error on my model??
If you create your column as the part of the model you will have the access to both displacements of the top and bottom nodes of the column as well as its deformation along the height. Mind that in such case the material of the column is assumed as elastic (uncracked) unless you make the corresponding modification of the column moment of inertia.
