For moments which cause tension in the slab (called positive
moments in STAAD convention), design of the beam is presently
not carried out.
4.
Shear connectors are presently not designed.
5.
Member selection is presently not carried out.
6.
In order to design a member as a composite beam, the member
property specification during the analysis phase of the data must
contain the “CM” attribute. See section 5.20.1 of the STAAD
