TDA, CSA, and addon concrete desing interaction bug

Good afternoon. When calculating reinforced concrete in RFEM 6, taking shrinkage and staging into account, I encountered a problem: the same scheme shows different reinforcement results when recalculated.

I'm attaching an example. I initially created scheme V1, performed the calculation, and saved it. Then I copied it and named it V2. I reset the calculation results and got completely different reinforced concrete calculation results. Nothing changed in the load scheme settings; it completely matches scheme V1 in all parameters. The figures below show the differences, for example, in the calculated ratio of ultimate cracks.

This is most likely a bug.
