Does RAM use the pile self weight to reduce tension forces in the pile?https://communities.bentley.com/products/ram-staad/f/ram-staad-forum/222075/does-ram-use-the-pile-self-weight-to-reduce-tension-forces-in-the-pileIn the foundation module, does RAM use the pile self weight to reduce tension forces in the pile?
