Hi, I'm trying to get a deeper understanding of why RAM Concept is showing my shear requirement as being larger than the same beam I have modelled in RAPT to verify. RAPT does not require any additional shear reinforcement. I have checked the shear…

Hi there, I'm designing a parking PT slab with PT beams in a corner panel where we have higher loads. I noticed that the amount of shear reinforcement in the beams running parallel to the distributed tendon (longitude direction) increases exponentially…

Hi, I've come across this particular issue a number of times but have never had RAM specify this much shear reinforcement before - see snapshots below. This is a one-way slab and band beam system so wouldn't be expecting shear ties in the beam like…

I have an existing two-way slab that I am trying to analyze. At locations of negative bending, the effective depth for one way shear calculations is much smaller than I'm calculating it to be by hand. Based on the value that the audit is showing, it…

Hello again. I was adding some user shear reinforcement to a model recently (hurray for this being a feature now), and had some things happened that piqued my interest. I started digging around in the audit report to better understand how Concept is…
