I'm currently designing combined footings for moment frames. One of the columns on the footing is fixed in both directions, so there are moments and shears applied in both the major and minor footing direction. RAM SS only designs for the Major direction, as it uses a FEA. RAM Elements, on the other hand, uses a rigid member assumption for design, however I can find anything in the documentation saying whether the minor direction forces are taken into account.
Does anyone have any input/advice on this front, aside from performing major direction analysis with software, and minor direction by hand?
Thanks
