&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When I use RAM Elements for a 2D analysis such as a beam or column, it says I have a local instability for Node 1 at DOF RX.&amp;nbsp; If I fix the node for RX, the warning goes away.&amp;nbsp; I have a couple questions regarding the boundary conditions.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1. Is RX torsion in this case?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2.&amp;nbsp;In this case, since I only have 1 member, does the member hinge conditions do anything?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Can RAM Connections design any of the following for BCF connections?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I understand you cannot use HSS beams or columns for MA or US connections.&amp;nbsp; However, a seated moment connection is common for HSS moment connections and I am trying to create an all welded seated connection with flange plate on top.&amp;nbsp; These are my limitations/questions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;-&amp;nbsp;MA All Welded - Can you make it so that you are welding to the column, not bolted?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;-&amp;nbsp;US All Welded -&amp;nbsp;&lt;span&gt;Can you make it so that you are welding to the&amp;nbsp;beam for top angle?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;-&amp;nbsp;&lt;span&gt;US Welded to&amp;nbsp;Beam - Can you change where you are welding the seat to the beam like in MA connections for &amp;quot;full&amp;quot; vs &amp;quot;lateral&amp;quot;?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Is it possible to change the top angle to a flange plate for MA or US connections?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I have a building with moment frames.&amp;nbsp; All lateral columns are fixed at the bottom and the pile caps keep failing with tension in the piles.&amp;nbsp; I pinned the columns at the bottom, thinking it will make it worse, and it actually all worked.&amp;nbsp; So the tension does not come from the coupled moment from the moment frame, but it comes from the bottom moment.&amp;nbsp; How does RAM calculate this, and wouldn&amp;#39;t the moment be resolved in the base plate connection and not in the piles?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Ask A Question I</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/achievements/460ac7df-7ccc-4c42-a204-9e05eef3be09</link><pubDate>Mon, 21 Jan 2019 01:09:53 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:44e31bfc-5c13-46f0-a68f-dbfb6ee63172</guid><dc:creator /><description>Ask a question in a forum.</description></item><item><title>RAM Frame Moment Frame Reactions Output Signs</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/products/ram-staad/f/ram-staad-forum/174001/ram-frame-moment-frame-reactions-output-signs</link><pubDate>Mon, 21 Jan 2019 23:27:18 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:77834037-ac4d-4212-b2ad-0e19e5a3fe57</guid><dc:creator>Jen Park</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi,&lt;/p&gt;
