How to reduce the stiffnes of elements in Edilus in order Eurocode requirements?

How to change the stiffnes for different elemente
Beam 0.5
Column 0.7
Slab 0.3 ect..

There is no direct possibility of applying reduction coefficients to the stiffness of various structural elements. However, in materials, in the case of seismic calculation, there is the field "Percentage of the Normal Elastic Modulus for Seismic Analysis" which allows considering a reduced elastic modulus by that factor in seismic calculation, to account for, in a lump-sum manner, the formation of cracks due to the cyclic actions of the earthquake. Therefore, you could create "n" concrete materials for beams, columns, slabs, etc., with different elastic modulus percentages, according to the Eurocode indications.
