How to change the design unit to metric?
When I design a gusset connection using RAM integrated solution , I couldn't change the plate sizes , how could I do that?
I guess you are using RAM Connection along with STAAD. In that case, the base unit set in STAAD will be used in RAM connection.Refer below wiki to know more.

You can change the plate dimensions if manual method is selected. See the stesp in below snap to know the process. You need to do the changes in connection pad workflow.
The setting is for the previous versions, couldn't find it in the latest version? where is the configuration ?
Also for me there isn't any option for manual calculation.
From your screenshot I can see the manual option is already set. You need to select the correct interface to get the option to input length.
I am using the latest version 22.10.00.153. If you are using any other version please upgrade.
