How to make multiple live loads (line loads in application) with different names in RAM SS so when I make a load combinations I can manually pick them individually? 2.) Related to question 1, is it possible to do(input) Wind Loads (line load) manuallyen-USTelligent Community 12https://communities.bentley.com/thread/374420?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 05 Jul 2016 18:11:58 GMT6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:2bec3524-2b1a-477c-a5a7-a2327c9edf3fSeth Guthrie<p>In Ram Modeler the live loads are either part of the main live load case (reducible, unreducible and storage type loads) or part of the roof live case (roof or snow) only. You can&#39;t force the program into having more distinct live load cases.&nbsp;</p> <p>Wind loads can only be entered as story forces or as nodal forces. We don&#39;t have a way to input a lateral line load. If you can simplify that to nodal forces on frames, then enter that in Modeler - Frame Elevation views. If a single diaphragm force will work, then those are defined in Ram Frame under Loads - Load cases.&nbsp;</p> <p>For more on Wind loads, see:&nbsp;</p> <ul> <li><a href="/Products/Structural/Structural_Analysis___Design/w/Structural_Analysis_and_Design__Wiki/ramss-wind-loads-faq.aspx">RAM Frame - Wind Loads FAQ</a></li> </ul> <p>For more versatility with loads you might want to use Ram Elements or STAAD.pro.&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
