Bridge skew (Schiefe) with ALFZ in GAXP + Bemessung

Guten Tag,

I have a quick question.

In my current project, I added the bridge skew by the funtion ALFZ (Skew about vertical z-axis) under GAXP, thus the skew was added on axis placements.

The local coordinate system of the SAR/QUAD elements seems correct, where direction of x-axis and y-axis is the same as global coordinate system. The direction of internal forces are also correct. However, the orientation of reinforcement is wrong. Is there a function/command where I can prevent this from happening or simply guarantee the reinforcement is placed on the same direction as element local axis?

I added 3 images for understanding: 1) local coordinate systems; 2) direction of internal forces (e.g. local mxx); 3) Reinforcement orientation



Thanks in advance.
Lucas
