Hi,
In Vertical bracing connection design, while checking on Gusset-column clip angle connection, (using slip critical bolts) Ram uses the nb (number of bolts): of one side only while it should use all bolts in connection since it uses the total force on the connection. A snap shot from the connection shape and the check I am talking about are attached. Appreciate receiving your comments.
Code reference: J3-5
Thanks for pointing that out. Our developers will make the correction quickly for the next release in November.
