Hi,
A. I am trying to detail a base plate with gusset plate in RAM connect.
I tried the following
1. I set a new joint defined as CBB (column, base, braces).Then assign to it "Smart gusset plate Base plate" but I got the following massage: "[Error] Assignment errors for joint 1 [Information] GBP (CB): Connection is not compatible with this type of joint". I also tried to assign to it "Smart fixed Biaxial base plate" and got the following massage: "[Error] Assignment errors for joint 1 [Information] None of the templates match the expected connector types"
2. . I set a new joint defined as CB (column base).Then assign to it "Smart fixed Biaxial base plate" and got the following massage: "[Information] Shear and moment connection Fixed biaxial BP was assigned to joint 5"But when I tried to assign the I tried to assign to it "Smart gusset plate Base plate" and got the following massage: "[Error] Assignment errors for joint 5 [Information] GBP (CB): Must have at least one brace (Right brace, Left brace)"
3. I Opened the Gusset BP (under Home> Database> Connections> Gusset Base plate > Gusset BP) but I cannot save it.
Am I missing something?
B. Another question if I may - Is there an option to have diagomals in orthogonal directions? One in the flange and one on the web?
Thank you in advance
