• Error in Steel Design Result V22.12.00.142

    Do Bentley check properly before launching a new version of STAAD? Many times we are facing issues related to the design results. It is a welded built-up column section. One of them is as follows
  • Interaction Ratio in Base plate

    Hello Team, In RAM connection stand alone as well as the in-built connection design tab of STAAD Pro, the interaction check of anchors in base plate design considers maximum demands which are from different load combinations. Should the interaction…
  • Compression and Flexure Interaction - Results

    Hello, I am trying to understand how RAM check interaction in steel elements using AISC. The code clearly requires to check equations H1-1a or H1-1b. I realized that although RAM do this calculation, it is displayed as intermediate results. The problem…
  • Actual ratio and interaction ratio

    Hello, I have one question for actual ratio and interaction ratio. here I am attaching two image for same member, when we see actual ratio in unity check for beam no 92 its something 1.278 and when we check this in member design then interaction ratio…
  • RE: No Warnings on Beam Failure?

    I see now, I missed that these were the lateral beams in your first post. This is the intended behavior. We allow you to drill in and check the lateral beams with the Ram Steel Beam design process, but since this does not account for end fixity, the presence…
