https://communities.bentley.com/products/ram-staad/f/ram-staad-forum/170087/ram-concept-slab-momentsHow does RAM concept calculate the moments that you see on the moment plot, in slabs? What procedure does it use? And is it code based or FEM based?

Is this calculated using FEM as well?</p> <p>Thanks</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/488844?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 01 Nov 2018 00:52:02 GMT6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:5f7f9c6b-717c-459e-b0b3-46796f9c3cddEdward Pigozzo<p><img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/1040x463/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5932/Strip-Moment-Plot.png" /></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/488543?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 31 Oct 2018 00:14:35 GMT6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:8f9b8042-a83c-40df-96ce-4e3f58496dedKarl G<p>I am assuming that you are referring to moments on a plan like &quot;Max Mx Plan&quot; under a specific load combination. Those moments are calculated based on a finite element analysis.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
