RAM Elements - Huge Displacements

Stephani Glien — Fri, 02 Oct 2015 14:19:14 GMT

I'm getting a "Huge Displacements" warning on a simple RAM elements model. All all accounts, the model appears stable and the maximum nodal displacements are very very small, less than .1". Any suggestions on what might be causing this warning?

RAM Structural System - Custom Beam Flags

When designing composite beams, our firm does not like to use beams with flange thicknesses less than 0.3". Is there a way to flag beams in RAM Steel that have flange thicknesses less than 0.3"

Other useful flags that would help us streamline our design process would be - minimum flange widths, large deck spans, deep beams framing into shallow beams.

Does anyone know if these types of "flags" are available in RAM Structural System?

Thanks,
