    Wall Reactions not shown

      Product(s): RAM Concept
      Version(s): CONNECT Edition v8.03.00.138 and greater
      Area:  Graphics, Results

    Problem Description

    When plotting the results for Wall Reactions the values are not apparent, or are placed away from the walls. 

    Explanation

    There are many places to view wall reactions (or reaction tables). These can be for load cases, combinations or rules sets. The Plot Settings dialog controls which reactions are shown.

    It's now possible, starting in version 8.03, to assign walls to a group by giving them a "Name" property in the Mesh Input - Properties:

      

    When multiple walls are assigned the same name, then the resultant reaction for that group is plotted at the centroid of the group.

    See details on this feature in the version 8.03 Release Notes here: https://communities.bentley.com/products/ram-staad/w/structural_analysis_and_design__wiki/56565/ram-concept-connect-edition-version-8-update-3-release-notes

    In versions prior to 8.03 some wall grouping was automatic for walls that intersect in a nearly parallel condition. Also note, in those prior versions wall reactions were not enveloped so only Standard Context reactions were possible. 

    Finally, if you are using and older file in the 8.03 version the model needs to be remeshed before the new wall grouping takes place. If you do not remesh the model this can prevent you from showing reactions. In this case, even the tabulated reactions will be all zero. Just remesh the model and then run Calc All in that case.

    Solution

    If the grouping of wall was unintentional, or no longer desired, edit the wall properties and clear the Name, then remesh and recalculate the model to return to having each wall reaction plotted.
