Both columns are W10x49 A992 Gr50. Shear = 50 kips, Axial = -300 kips, M33 = 150 kip*ft. After designing the problem, I obtain results with demand values I do not know.</p> <p><span style="font-size:inherit;"><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">How did RAM Connection calculate the demands in the second photo?</span></strong></span></p> <p>See pictures attached</p> <p></p> <p></p> <p><a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5932/RAM-Inputted-Values.png"><img src="/resized-image/__size/940x0/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5932/RAM-Inputted-Values.png" width="906" height="710" alt=" " /></a><a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5932/RAM-Demand-Values.png"><img src="/resized-image/__size/940x0/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5932/RAM-Demand-Values.png" alt=" " /></a></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
