No, Ascetic because when you remove automeshing, M2 and M3 design moments decrease and it gives minimum reinforcing of the code for that frame element. It is why you see the same reinforcing area in columns even M2 is negative and M3 is positive. I write this issue in my previous post as "except minimum reinforcement is applied".
I think they forgot to take the absolute value of M2 in rebar area calculations or something like that. This is further than funny and a disgrace for CSI. I also can not be able to understand why?
