https://communities.bentley.com/products/ram-staad/f/ram-staad-forum/161236/ram-concrete-beam-designI have 500 beams need to be checked/designed. Is there an option to input all the reinforcements (Quantity, Bar size, Reinforcement layer, etc.) from an excel file that has all the reinforcement information for each beam in a row to the software?en-USTelligent Community 12https://communities.bentley.com/thread/477528?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 21 Aug 2018 15:22:16 GMT6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:26ae5e92-5594-43f7-9550-4b83f32e3c01Seth Guthrie<p>In theory it&#39;s possible to set the beam reinforcement through Ram DataAccess, but it&#39;s probably more expedient to set the design criteria appropriately for your beams and let the program optimize them. Then use the View/Update command to modify the beam line reinforcement layout to reflect the desired reinforcement and then copy the beam line.&nbsp; If your beam lines are all different, then it will be more complicated, of course.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
