ed in all SLS checks for all combinations of all extremes of current section. Th
e assumptions for SLS checks in other extremes of current section will not be in

- Erroneous influence of secondary prestressing effects appeared in XY plane of

solver.
The bug appeared in case that the point of application of resultant prestressing
force fell outside of vertical XZ plane going through cross-section centroid
(e.g. in case of non-symmetric prestressing reinforcement). The bug caused the d
eviation of 15% from correct internal forces on tested example.

was caused by reverse reaction generated in removed nodal support,
which had existed in one node in more than one consecutive construction stages

mposite beams.

was doubled,
