Some beams are failed due to shear since no links were designed and also, I am not able to add in any by manual means.

If the beam shown failure due to stress exceeds the maximum permissible stress for Shear and Torsion, then it’s a section failure. User can increase the size or Material grade to pass the beam in design. As it is section failure, there is no option available to change the reinforcement diameter to pass the design.
