• Staad Reactions - Still unreadable

    Hi everyone, So, regarding reactions report, is this still the intended report of reactions? no update? Even if I want to zoom in to a specific support node Fortunately you can just move them (well, not all. When I move some of them they just…

  • Questions about hydrostatic pressure load

    Dear all, I would like to model a tank and to calculate the anchoring loads. I would like to include my hydrostatic pressure inside my tank to have a more realistic model. What type of primary load should I put for this load please ? I tried dead…
  • RAM SS - "Gravity Column" Loads report vs Foundation Loads > "Gravity Forces from RAM Concrete" report for drilled pier loading

    Please see specific questions at the end of this post. As an overview of the issue, I would like some clarification on where the loads in the "Gravity Column Loads" and the Foundation Loads > "Gravity Forces from RAM Concrete" reports within RAM Manager…
  • Revit ISM - Start vs End Beam Reactions

    When importing steel beam reaction from RAM Structural System to Revit via the ISM Plugin, the beam reactions are sometimes at the wrong end of the beam. How does the ISM/RAM track the start/end of beam that exists in Revit? I don't have control of…
  • Output Summed Reactions at Tilt-up Wall Joints

    RAM does not currently have a direct way to get the combined reaction from two tilt-up wall panels at a joint with a gap assignment. This makes it labor-intensive to design deep foundation elements such as piers/caissons which are commonly used at tilt…
  • Live Load Reduction not Applied to RAM Reactions and in RCDC

    Hello again, I'm having some issues with the integration of RAM and RCDC. I am using the NBC of India. Is Live Load Reduction meant to be applied in RAM to the reactions? It does not appear to be incorporated in the reactions. It appears that…
  • Analysis of reaction outputs in MS tower

    Hello, I have completed an analysis of a lattice tower within MS tower. The tower has linear ancillaries along with face, and large ancillaries. I have used the 'mean' hourly wind speed in the loading of the tower, in accordance to BS8100. I am…
  • Exporting Reactions from RAM SS to Excel

    I just tried using the export option in RAM SS and was able to export the data to Excel easily enough, but it doesn't seem that beam reactions (something that would be incredibly useful to be able to export, sort, and filter) are in the items available…
  • Macro For extracting Reactions for all the Loads and nodes at a time

    Dear All, I will be glad if you help me with the code. I Already have a code where i need to enter load case number to get the reactions at the particular load case. I have almost 1000 load cases and i want all the load cases to get in excel at…
  • Greyed Out "Export Reactions to RAM

    I am trying to export my reactions from my Concept model to my RAM structural model. The option is greyed out and will not let me send to my RAM model. Can you help?
  • RAM Frame Reactions for an "Elevated Building"

    I am designing the top level of a structure. I modeled a dummy structure below to ensure I was getting the correct wind loads. I need to get the reactions from my top level on the structure below. Using the reaction envelope feature doesn't work because…
  • RE: Design Assumptions for Mat Foundation on Piles - RAM Concept

    Point spring reactions are currently only available in the "Standard" context because we don't envelope the point spring reactions. We only envelope things we design, like punching shear reactions for columns. Consequently, you can plot or tabulate…
  • RE: Ram Concept: Envelope of allowable stress design load combinations?

    Use a Rule set, e.g. Rule Set Design - Service Design, then add a new plot for reactions or review the tabulated column below reactions.
  • Left and Right End Reactions reversed in ISM

  • RE: Ram Concept Software

    If you model a line support then you can show line support reactions on screen, or in tables. Use the Plot option Reaction - Active - Line Support (or line spring). It's important to note that the program does not envelope line support reactions, so this…
  • RE: Foundation Loads on Plan

    You can plot reactions in RAM Frame graphically, for load cases or load combinations, but only for member supports. You can also display reactions in RAM Concrete analysis mode, but this is based on finite element analysis we do in that module, which…
  • RE: RAM Concept - Wall Below Reactions

    I guess most users are designing the walls with other applications or based on other analysis results besides the reactions from Ram Concept (Ram Structural System - Concrete Shear Wall module or STAAD.pro for example). As you noted, we only provide…
  • showing combined reactions in RamConcrete

    Hello, I'm a long time RamSteel user, but I'm just starting to use the RamConcrete module. I'm using the program to do a load takedown for a very large, irregular footprint building. RamConcrete seems to have a nice feature/button that shows the…
  • Reactions from RAM Frame

    Hello. I am sure that I am not the only one who has had issues extracting reactions from RAM Frame for use in drawings. I am looking to get a handle on the most recent best practices for the extraction of useful reactions on frame beams for shear, moment…
