I am getting an illegal framing configuration on Beam 42 on the lower level of my model. The data check rings up no warnings for the framing condition. However, when i run the beam design i get the error message for Beam 42 located on the diagonal A9 gridline.
Note: this model is for an existing structure, which needs some analysis for new loads so i am trying to keep it as close to the original CDs as possible
I added additional construction grids on all members close to beam 42. I then readjusted the end of beam 42, 91, 90, and 51 to ensure all of them were on the correct attachment point. This did not clear up the error.
I adjusted the original deck orientation, as another forum mentioned that could be the issue but this did not resolve the matter either.
I then proceeded to delete and redraw 42, 90, 91, and 51 with the modified/new deck orientation but this also did not resolve the matter.
If anyone could provide some insight on how to resolve the matter, i would appreciate it.
- Original deck orientation - Data check - new deck layout
This fixed the error message. Thank you very much for the quick response!
Most illegal configuration errors are slab edge or slab opening related. RAM SS Common Framing Table Errors [TN].
Try deleting the whole slab edge and re-assign it with the Whole Diaphragm tool and/or delete and re-assign the slab openings with the In Bay tool.
