Question:
How can I create a closed curve stirrup in the column?

Answer:
First, model the rebar shape with the help of construction lines which are along the straight sides of the part. Pick the intersection points. See the picture. Then use a different bending radius for the points that are at the intersections. This function is available in Tekla Structures 17.0 and later versions.
