I was wondering if there is any literature on the best way to approach the design of a simple four sided moment frame building using RAM Structural System? Thanks, Scott

I am using RAM Structural for a building that has dozens of different Surface loads, Line loads, and Point Loads. I have all of the various loadings tabulated in an Exel file. It is my understanding that with Data Access, there should be a way for me…

Does ISM support transferring reactions to Revit from RAM SS? If it does, how do we get them to appear in Revit?

Is there any way in RAM SS to have the reaction round to the nearest kip? Also preferably they would round up to the nearest kip, for instance reaction is 17.34 kips per RAM SS, I would like it to show up as 18 kips. Thanks

I am just trying to get some opinions on what is done with RAM Structural System and RAM Concrete Column Design. Currently in ACI 318-08 there are three methods for column design. sections 10.10.3, 10.10.4 and 10.10.5, Nonlinear second-order analysis…
