As of previous versions, CYPECAD provided U.L.S. reports for concrete columns using its advanced column editor, which displayed all the checks carried out during the design process (Results > Columns > Edit > select column > select 
from the “Summary of code checks” table – to generate the U.L.S. checks report of the selected column span -, or click on the 
button – to generate the U.L.S. checks report of the worst case span for each check).
To identify the failed checks or consult a specific check, users had to run through the entire report.
Now, as of the 2013.k version, a detailed check and specific check have been implemented in CYPECAD’s advanced column editor, for each U.L.S. check, which helps to speed up the verification procedure. As has been done with the U.L.S. and S.L.S. checks reports for concrete beams, when users select any of the options to consult the U.L.S. checks of the concrete columns symbol or button), a dialogue box appears, displaying a list of the checks that have been carried out in the top-half of the box. Users select the check to be consulted, which is then displayed in more detail in the bottom-half of the screen.
This dialogue box has the same properties as the dialogue box that appears when using the concrete beam editor, explained in detail, in the previous section of this webpage (Advanced beam editor of CYPECAD).
