We have a steel building where we run lateral analysis using other software. However, we have vierendeel truss system as well as diagonal brace member running through multiple levels as part of our gravity system.
As far as I understand,
Would it be possible to get gravity result while having these systems in the model?
Thank you!
Certainly, you need to perform the analysis in Ram Frame, but you can do that only for gravity loads and possibly without a diaphragm. See also: RAMSS Truss Modeling And Design [TN]
