It is possible for a concrete member not to comply with code irrespective of the reinforcement provided. For example, there is a limit on how much shear a member can resist. RAM Concept reports a violation when the shear exceeds the limit.

Status refers to code violations. When a design strip complies with all code rules in a rule set design then its status is "OK". If there are violations then the status is "Failed" or "Exceeded" (depending on the rule) and RAM Concept identifies the code rule.

RAM Concept stores the envelope of status for all rule set designs in the design status layer folder.
