The Design Details form displays detailed design information for the chosen object, including design forces and the required reinforcing. The Design Details form can be accessed when slab design, beam design or punching shear ratios are displayed in the active window by moving the mouse pointer over the design strip, beam, or point object, respectively, and clicking the right mouse button.

Combination. Select from the drop-down list the design combination for which the design details should be generated. If slab design or beam design is displayed in the active window, the default combination will be Overall Envelope, which is what the Display menu > Display Slab Design Info and Display menu > Display Beam Design Info commands show.
