Is there anyway to design a Beam or Column HSS MEP splice connection in Ram Connection?
If not is there a Bentley product that works inside Staad Pro to design this?
Regretfully our MEP beam splice is limited to wide flange shapes in Ram Connection v11. We still have some work left to implement more HSS connections.
I suppose you could look at it as a base plate, but that's not ideal.
Limcon currently has a joint type called RHS Bolted moments End Plate with 4 or 8 bolts that might also help. Similar to the base plate approach, Limcon only investigates the connection from one side.
