Rcdc borrows analysis result from staad for design. Ok. But Rcdc has the option to change the sectional properties of columns and beams. The design forces in members in staad are dependent not only on loads but also on sectional properties. Under the circumstances how Rcdc can change the section on its own without reanalysing in staad. Please comment.

you didnt answer how? How do you change failing members size in RCDC?!?!?
After design if the member fails, you have the option Resign Section and Redesign Column/Beam option in RCDC which will allow you to change the size of the member
