Hi Good day! I am having a problem with the printing of my Design Calculation Report, when it is already generating the design calculation report an error message pops out. See attached. Error Translation: >> Microsoft.NET Framework An…

I'm currently designing a multi-storey RC frame in RAM Concrete and I've noticed a puzzling aspect of how RAM spaces the shear links if using UK codes. I have for aesthetic reasons rectangular columns with the width in the order of 250mm - 350mm with…

I have set up a model in RAM. It is A steel frame sat on an RC base. I have run the data check and there are no errors or warnings. I have run the steel beam design and it has given me section sizes. However, every time I try to run the steel…

Does anyone know if/how you can model bundles of rebar in RAM Structural System? Currently I'm only seeing the equal spacing method for placing rebar within the concrete columns, but this is overly conservative when considering the bending stress in the…

When we have circular columns and I assign them to have spiral reinforcement I keep getting the following design warning; Story 5: Minimum shear spacing limit is greater than maximum limit Story 4: Minimum shear spacing limit is greater than…

I was wondering if RAM SS in either RAM Concrete or RAM Frame can calculate the stability index as noted in ACI 318-08 equation 10-10? If the program cannot calculate the stability index is their a procedure of how to get the variables that are required…
