Help...what am I doing wrong? I was using the tool to check a 30 x 
30 x12 footing. Each time, the program told me that the 
dimensions were to small due to development length required for #4 
bars.

Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong, because for 4000psi 
concrete, 60000psi uncoated steel, the development length should 
come out at around 19 in.  The bars in my footing are longer than 
this.

This is the first time I used the tool, but the input is pretty straight 
forward.
