  • Fixed Beam Diagram Shows it as Pinned

    Hi, I am trying to model a fixed-fixed beam in RAM Structural System but the moment diagram shows it as a simple beam. I assigned the framing members as lateral members and assigned the fixity as shown. Is there something I'm missing? Any help would…
  • Fully Bolted Moment Connection

    Hi - I'm working on the connection design for a small cantilever platform. The platform itself is composed of C8x11.5s that will be connected to the flange of a W12x26. The client is trying to avoid welding, and thus, I need to do a moment connection…
  • RAM SS Cantilever Beam - Column Moments

    Is there a way to confirm the loads that are imparted from a stub cantilever gravity beam into its supporting column, and can we confirm that this is what RAM does in the steel column design module? My office was reviewing a couple of cantilevers off…
  • Beam to column web end plate moment connection with both beam and column W shapes.

    Why beam to column web end plate moment connection for W shape column is not available in RAM connections ? Only we have column as rectangular hollow section (snap below). Can we expect this w shape column web connection in future updates?
  • 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…
  • RAM Connection-End Plate Moment (AISC DG04 vs. AISC DG04+Seismic(SMF))

    Hello, Firstly, thanks to all of you reading this. It has been already sent through the Service Request No.[7001213662] However I would like to share the thought that I have. [Question & Suggestion] The demand(load) for the each check is different…
  • RAM connection checks Panel web shear for Axial load

    I am using RAM Connection V 13.01.00.76 In moment connections [bolted (DG16/DG4) or welded], RAM connection checks Panel web shear for Axial Load. Panel Web shear shall be only checked for Moment acting on the Connection. Could someone tell me if…
  • what is M22 in RAM CONNECTION load table ?

    what is manning of M22 in load table where we can moment value get this in staad.pro ? plz explain. and I attach load table plz check this sir.
  • RAM Connection

    Hello, There is probably a simple and obvious answer to this question but I will ask anyway. Why is it that RAM Connection only deals with the major axis bending moment and vertical shear (and axial) instead of all 3 forces and all 3 moments? Thanks…
  • Connections between hollow sections using RAM connection

    Hello community, Is it possible to design rectangular hollow beam to rectangular hollow column moment connection OR rectangular hollow beam to rectangular hollow beam shear connection using RAM connection? Regards, Vishal
  • Beam to beam moment joint

    Hello Community, I have doubt regarding the beam (secondary) to beam (primary) moment connection (no releases defined). 1) How does staad calculate the end moment transferred from secondary to primary beam for moment connection? Of-course it will…
  • Connection design with beams on both side flanges

    Hello Seth, Is it possible to design a moment connection as attached below in RAM, Of course considering reactions and moments from both side beams (on flange and most imp on web of column)? Is it possible with Eurocode? Or we do it only for…
  • moment joint design according to EN 1993-1-8

    Hello, I have doubts in moment joint designed according to EN 1993-1-8. For moment joint beam connected to flange of column, how does the min limit for weld size is decided in weld section? there is no reference mentioned in front of this clause…
  • RE: Does Ram Connection address a w-shape beam moment connection to an HSS column? The column continues above this cantilever beam condition.

    Yes. In RAM Connection, you can assign the following moment connections for a W-shape beam connected to a HSS column: 1. Diaphragm Plate (Smart Connection - Smart FP Bolted or Smart FP Welded) 2. Directly Welded (Smart Connection - Smart DW) …
  • Moment resistance of the flange

    47073914-SW-CV-CALC-MOD-105-R4.std Hi, in the attached model, a plate sits on top of both horizontal members of bracket, with help of four bolts. STAAD design output says all members pass. But when i did design manually, the moment capacity of the…
  • RE: RAM Connection integrated with Staad Pro v8i

    For some types of connections the part that resists the moment and the part that resists the shear are independent, such as a flange-plate moment connection with a double angle shear connection. For those situations assign both a smart shear connection…
