• RAM Frame - Unstable Structure Detected Instability Found At Rigid Diaphragm

    I am modeling a 5 story steel moment frame. One of my diaphragms is failing with P-Delta. I have went through the trouble shooting process of turning off P-Delta and running dead load, which is running fine. I can run wind and seismic without P-Delta…
  • End Moments for Joist Girder Moment Frames

    We are designing a large warehouse type building with joist girder moment frames in both directions (however no columns are acting biaxially in frames). This is a large footprint building and thus lots of frames. We need to extract end moments (dead…
  • RAM SS - Moment Frame Work Flow

    Hi, I wanted to see what everyone's preferred workflow is in RAM SS for extracting the moment reactions for each beam in a moment frame to add to your documentation? To my knowledge I don't think there is a report available to give the max/ min moments…
