Extract beam maximum dead and live loads
Hi, I am trying to export a csv or excel file where I can see the maximum Dead and Live/Roof live load moments in each beam. I need to obtain them unfactored to post-process them in excel. The table would simply have the beam label, Md and ML. I've been…
Composite beam with 2 deck types
Hi,
I am modelling a beam with a change of deck along the length of the beam (half of the beam has a W2+3.5" verco deck, and the other half has a W2+2" deck). I read this response: Effects of Changing Deck Type - RAM | STAAD | ADINA Wiki - RAM | STAAD…
HI, everyone can anybody help me to create frame for storge oil tank without support (fixed, pinned, foundation,.............etc), because we have crane carry up this frame, so weight of the model will go above cuz crane, need strong designer to solve...

Design of Solid slab (Conventional slabs)
Hello Everyone
For a while, I was using an Advanced Concrete Design (RCDC) for the design of a solid slab. Today I tried to learn the RAM concept for the slab designs but I saw a design of strips that had never seen before (When I was using RCDC and…
Dummy beam
Hello Everyone.
I create a dummy beam with density=0 and E=0 (Figure.1) then I assign the beam (Figure.2) then Staad Error occurs( ***ERROR*** MATERIAL NAME MUST NOT CONTAIN ANY BLANK SPACE )(Figure.3), What is the solution?
Yield Strength Rounds Down
Why does RAM Structural System round down the Yield Strength fy value? I am located in Canada so if I use american steel then I convert the fy=50 000psi to MPa which is approximately 345MPa. So in the Modeler when laying out the beams I type in 345MPa…
RAM SS Beam Deflection Error
I just go a more recent version of RAM SS and when I run the beam module there are certain beam that now show that they fail in deflection. But when I look at the report the beam does not fail in deflection. I have tried deleting the beam and putting…
how to get the loadings details in report????
I have got my report, but there is no loading details like dead load, Wind loads and all...
In report settings i have added Loadings, but its not showing.... Wt to do????
i want to see other load details. How to get that details?
RAM SS What Beams and Joists Frame Into
I am trying to use RAM Structural System to design an apartment building out of Steel and Wood. The wood beams are modeled as steel joists (I have custom joist tables set up for the wood beam members). The steel beams are modeled as steel beams. Both…
RE: RAM Concrete Beam - Effective Depth used for Deflection Calculations when Reinforcing Continuous at Beam Depth Change
Your images did not come through, but if I understand correctly, you have two consecutive spans that are different depth beams with continuous top bars across the support, but the d value used in the deflection checks is less than expected.
Splicing…
Composite Beam Deflection Query
I am designing a composite floor system as my first project in RAM. As I was looking at the composite beam deflections and checking them to make sure I understood and agreed, it seemed that the Post-Composite Beam Deflections for a S-S beam with a UDL…
RSS - AISC 6th Edition beams
Does anyone have an RSS Beams table with 6th edition beam shapes in it?
RamContainer MFC Application
OS: Windows 7
Ram Structural Version: 14.2.2
When viewing in 3D, we selected a concrete beam to view in elevation.
A popup error window appeared that said: "RAMContainer MFC Application has stopped working"
Re-installing the application fixed…
Beam "extension" at multi-story column
When you model a cantilever beam with type "extension" at a lower level of a multi-story column, does RAM SS analyze the column as continuous or does it assume the beam essentially passes through the column? In other words, do the moments from the cantilever…
