Creating DXF from RAM SS

Is there a way to export a DXF of a framing plan in RAM SS? Is this through modeler of RAM Steel Beam?

Ram SS building height for Auto Seismic load

Corey Barber — Thu, 02 Feb 2017 16:47:25 GMT

I have a building with a penthouse that I have framed in my model for gravity design, however for lateral I have combined the mass to my main roof level b/c I will design the penthouse lateral using Fp forces. It seems Ram is using my penthouse height in determining Ta and calculating relative Cs values for the EQLF loads.

Is there a way to control the building height used for the main LFRS??

Using RAM for Moment and Shear on "Other" material member types

Corey Barber — Tue, 08 Nov 2016 21:38:38 GMT

Can RAM SS be used to get the moment and shear demands for beams of "other" material. Beam module is grey until you model a Steel beam and then once you model a steel beam it only gives output for Steel Members. What is the point of having the "other" material??
