VBA for RAM-CONCEPT

Dear Concerned,

Is there a way to import Tendons into RAM Concept or to manipulate data information using a readable form of Data similar to the GCFF File,

Also is RAM Concept VBA compatible, this will also allow us to quickly modify Slabs, Frames, Columns or Tendons, Or even to extract Data, we are mainly concerned with tendons

Thank you

  • Chris,

    You can use the RAM Concept API to write point loads into a model. However, you might be limited by the fact that RAM Elements does not have an open API. You could collect reactions in a spreadsheet in a form will be easily read by the API and then use the API to read the coordinates and the force/moment magnitudes for those point loads into RAM Concept.

    A Getting Started Guide for RAM Concept's API is included in the documentation. To access, click on Help - API Documentation in RAM Concept and review the links in the Getting Started section.

    Sample scripts are installed with RAM Concept and saved in C:\Program Files\Bentley\Engineering\RAM Concept CONNECT Edition\RAM Concept CONNECT Edition V8\python\examples. The "add_loads.py" will be useful for what you are looking to accomplish.

    If you run into any problems or need more help getting started, please submit a service request. We will be happy to help.
