RAM Connection - Column-Brace-Base Plate

Hello,

I am designing a braced frame base connection, with gusset plate welded the base plate and column flange. The column web is failing in shear. 

1. The force calculated by RAM C seems very large compared to what my hand calcs show. Is there any documentation as to what RAM C is doing in calculating the shear demand at the column. see attached image. 

2. RAM C seems to place the work point at the bottom of the base plate. Can the user change that to the top of the base plate or any distance above the base plate?
