• RE: RAM Connection- deign beam splice of equal strength to base beam?

    The yield strength of the beam, or some user-specified moment strength based on flexural-torsional buckling? Are you thinking of Ram Connection stand alone or one of the integrated modes? I assume the beam does not also have axial forces. We don't have…
  • RAM Connection - Column Splice Moment Connection (Flange-plated) & Single Shear Plate

    I am designing a column splice in RAM Connection. Both columns are W10x49 A992 Gr50. Shear = 50 kips, Axial = -300 kips, M33 = 150 kip*ft. After designing the problem, I obtain results with demand values I do not know. How did RAM Connection calculate…
