 In RAM Frame when running the joint check for Seismic Provisions, I get these errors associated with the joints of my OCBF frames with HSS braces, HSS columns, and wide flange beams. Is this just saying that RAM won&amp;#39;t do a code check for these</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 12</generator><item><title>RE: RAM Frame - Joint Check for HSS Brace in OCBF</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/650376?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 18 May 2021 15:35:25 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:d9da182b-01be-4bbe-a012-29912ce7fb1b</guid><dc:creator>Kevin Hughes</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Thank you!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: RAM Frame - Joint Check for HSS Brace in OCBF</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/650375?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 18 May 2021 15:32:26 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:bec8c33f-a871-46b8-abb8-3fb0714f5b44</guid><dc:creator>Seth Guthrie</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;The program primarily performs a column web joint check in moment connections with Wide flange columns, and as noted some BRBF checks, but there is nothing&amp;nbsp;implemented for OCBF frame joints.
