Design shown after design errors

Hi,

I am getting the following errors when I run a Design All in the RAM Steel BEAM/Joist module. In cases where I can't get true composite action, I still want to specify the minimum amount of shear studs. What does the module show when I view the design? The design as if the error didn't exist or taking into account the error?

1. Number of studs required exceeds maximum rows specified

2. Not enough studs for 25% composite action

3. Cannot fit enough studs for 25% composite action

4. Flange width inadequate for stud rows required

5. Rib spacing is greater than maximum stud spacing

6. Rib spacing is greater than user-specified maximum stud spacing

Also, why does the program specify zero studs sometimes (and then return error 2 above) when I haven't told it to do this? I have to go in and manually change it in these cases which is a hassle.

Thanks!
