Question:
Why is no stability analysis displayed in the results despite the activation of the stability analysis in RF‑/STEEL EC3?

Answer:
If no stability analysis is displayed in the results in RF‑/STEEL EC3 although the stability analysis has been activated, it is very likely not necessary.

For example, if the slenderness ratio λ-LT is less than or equal to 0.4, the lateral-torsional buckling analysis may be omitted according to Eurocode 3, and only cross-section design should be performed.
