What is the full definition of the "Cracked Section" option in PSC Design? How does the program know to skip this particular material, and how are the cross-section characteristics determined with and without the "Cracked Section" option turned on? Are there any manuals or tutorials available that provide a detailed analysis of this type of cross-section, especially according to Eurocode EN?

What should I do if the program indicates that the girders are failing in negative flexure near the contraflexure points after running the design check on a curved composite steel plate girder?

Is it possible for the girders to fail in this region?

How can I create multilinear springs quickly from an excel sheet in Midas? I'm currently manually creating the springs using a table, which is time-consuming, especially when I need to update the values or switch between lower and upper bounds. Would having twice as many compression-only springs be a viable workaround to copy into the Midas Point Springs Support tables? I have 4 different pile types and approximately 10 meters deep, with springs at every 1 meter, so there are around 40 different spring values.

During a construction stage analysis, I used the option "Constriction Stage Analysis Control Data - Load Cases to be distinguished from Dead Load for CS Output" to create a separate load case to examine the effect of the wet concrete and the construction loading to CS2. However, running the analysis with the load cases separate from the Dead Load (CS) produced a considerably different bending diagram than anticipated. Can you explain why there is a discrepancy, given that I assumed they would produce the same bending moment diagram? The details of the construction stages and the results are attached below.

How can I export envelopes for a specific force (e.g. maximum bending moment) and obtain the concurrent forces associated with that force for a group of elements (e.g. longitudinal beam consisting of several frame elements) in an integral bridge model in MIDAS? I know the software automatically creates MAX, MIN, and ALL envelopes of maximum forces for the model, but I need to design for specific maximum forces with concurrent forces, such as MAX bending moment with concurrent forces or MAX shear with concurrent forces. Can this be done without having to manually extract static load cases?

Have you encountered bugs when creating an excel PSC design report? Is it common for the program to crash when another spreadsheet is opened simultaneously while the report is being run, even though it takes more than 30 minutes to run a single-line model? Does the program allow you to create a report for just one element, or does it force you to do all elements at once? Is it accurate to say that the program employs the clipboard to transfer data from Midas to the excel report, given that when attempting to copy and paste content into another file while the program is running, sections of the excel PSC design sheet are pasted in? Does the technical support website exhibit functionality issues with the Google Chrome browser, where filling in ticket submission details and clicking submit typically causes the page to reset without submitting the ticket, while Windows Explorer is generally functional?

Is it defaulted to either the cracked or uncracked condition, and can it be changed from one condition to the other as in other programs? In the attached model, how is the post tension being resisted by the columns - is it through the gross moment of inertia or is an effective moment of inertia being considered? (P.S. AASHTO refers to this in C 4.7.1.3.)

Can you explain the following issues related to a bridge model? Why is the black text section (Comp_NU63) used instead of the blue text section defined in the bridge wizard for the composite section (image attached), and whether the composite section is correctly modeled? The girder seems to be embedded in the deck, but it should have a separation from the bottom of the deck or be flashed. It is centered on top, and the offset is 8 inches as input in the section. Is it possible to include the superelevation of the deck in the bridge wizard?
