Hello,
I am trying to model a 3 story concrete structure. When I try to run the gravity analysis in RAM Concrete module, i get the following error: "Gravity load computation error on floor Podium and diaphragm 1. Please check gravity loads on slab decks on this diaphragm." The gravity load cases run just fine in RAM Frame module, but i run in to a problem with RAM Concrete. Did anyone have this error and managed to solve it?
Thanks,
Amit
Amit,
This error is typically associated with a mesh problem and an alignment issue with two-way decks. The information on the web page below may help:

Otherwise, please use the Secure Upload Link at the bottom of the page to share your model and then post the file name here after it is uploaded. We will review the model and pinpoint the cause of the error.
