State the code basis for utilization ratio tables in reports

In STAAD 2023, if a report is created and the Utilization Ratio table is included, a critical Clause is listed for each member. However, there is no indication in/above the table of which code, or code version, that the Clause pertains to. Please add a column or table header stating AISC 360-2010 or CSA S16-14, etc. Otherwise the report reader doesn't know to what standard the code checks were made.

    Thank you for posting this idea. I would suggest however that perhaps a more complete idea would be that the user report should provide details of the design specification, which by definition would stipulate the assigned code including version. This then clarifies not just what code/version was used, but any nuances that have been specified that would affect the design and provide context to the results as reported.
