AISC 341-16 section D1-4a requires columns of intersecting frames to be designed considering yielding of frames in both directions simultaneously. Does RAM Frame take this into account? It would appear that the expected BRB forces applied to the column…

Working on a steel project in which we're using CoreBrace BRBFs for a portion of our lateral system. We've gone through the first part of our lateral analysis and have received a table of values (including overstrength parameters) back from CoreBrace…

I have two shared BRBF columns that are not calculating expected capacity forces of the braces. I've tried a number of items to make it work, but I haven't had any luck. It is saying "no compression on column" and "no tension on column." The most confusing…
