&lt;p&gt;RAM Concrete Column module requires a closer tie spacing near the top of column sighting the ACI 318-14 10.6.2.1/10.6.2.2.&amp;nbsp; When checking the analysis results, the shear Vu does not exceed 0.5xPhixVc for any load combination. Question: Why RAM is giving the warning the bar spacing is larger than the code limit when the applied shear, Vu is less than 0.5xPhixVc? See snip below.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I am working on a Mat Foundation Raft to Eurocode 2 in RAM concept and have input all my own load cases and load combination (approx 100 different cases).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When I try to run this I get an error for all the rule sets saying that my load factors do not appear compatible.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;All my loads have been put in as load type &amp;#39;Other&amp;#39; except the defaults (self dead loading, balance loading and hyperstatic loading)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When I set up my load combinations I have selected them all to include all &amp;#39;plans.&amp;#39;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What is likely to be causing these errors and if the load combinations I have put in are 100% correct does this error actually have an effect on my model output?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Regards,&lt;/p&gt;
