RAM Frame Ground Level at Upper Floor - Reaction
When I change the ground level as detailed here: LINK How can I find the reactions of the imposed global lateral restraints?
Additionally, let's say that I want to eliminate the "overhang cantilever" affect that these global lateral restraints would…
Excavation near existing basement
I am aiming to simulate a deep excavation near an existing tower with 4 levels of below grade parking (shaded in grey). The approximate loading of the building is 10 ksf. Therefore I have simulated the material (shaded in grey) as a non-porous Mohr Coloumb…

RE: Wind Load and Lateral Earth Pressure on Building with Basement
If you set the Ram Frame - Criteria - Ground level up one story from the base it will reduce the wind exposure. For more in this see: communities.bentley.com/.../18422.ram-frame-criteria-ground-level
Ground floor plane height
Hello,
I have been working on a building from the top down, my ground floor plane is going to end up below 0m as I have set my floor planes incorrectly. Is there anyway I can drag the rest of the building up or change the levels so my ground floor…
RE: Modelling variable wall construction in single element
Hi Roy, it may depend on the type of calculation you are doing as to the best solution. The simplest option is to create an Exposed Wall in Fabric Data using the layer data for the above ground wall. Once created you can adjust the calculated U-Value…

Warehouse Crawlspace
Part of my previous work as a structural engineer had me peforming visual observations of existing structures. This is the crawlspace of a 100+ year old timber and masonry building I was poking around in.
