ProStructures (ProConcrete) allows users to input reinforcement bar parameters below the Rebar Code defined minimum values without any validation, warning, or automatic correction.
This results in the creation of non‑code‑compliant reinforcement, increasing the risk of design errors being issued to contractors.
Unlike comparable external products, the software does not enforce minimum values based on bar size or adjust parameters automatically when changes make the design non‑compliant, leading to potential compliance and quality concerns.
This is in reference to case CS0687759 where user raised this request.

without this compliance check during positioning as bare minimum the software can produce anything, including wrong geometry that is not compliant with selected standard for positioning process. Therefore, this feature is meaningless as doesn't operate as it should.
