    I'm currently trying to design special reinforced concrete structural walls for a parking deck in a high-seismic area using the Concrete Wall module in RAM Structural System. For some of the vertical section cuts I've made, the value of V e remains just…

    Hi, I'm using RAM SS Concrete design module to design a Tilt-up wall that resists lateral force. Q1. I applied a manual reinforcement, however, it seems like the reinforcement in not considered in the strength calculation. Please see the attached file…

  • RAM SS Concrete Wall Module Crashes when I open it

    I have a precast concrete structure that I am primarily utilizing RAM SS to design the foundations and lateral system since the precast is all delegated. Every time I open the RAM SS Concrete Wall Module, it crashes on me.

    Hello, How does the program calculate the elastic modulus for concrete walls? I currently using "Use Calculated Value," but I cannot find how it is calculated.

    After using "Design All" in the Ram Concrete Walls, I see bars that are green and bars that are blue. I haven't "frozen" any designs yet. Why are some of the bars colored blue? Thanks!

    I am modeling/analyzing Tilt Up Walls, in RAM structural systems and was wondering a few things: - How do you capture the parapet? I understand you can put wind loads in RAM frame for the parapet, but when designing, you can't design the parapet portion…

    I'm analyzing a podium structure with unbalanced soil loading using the lateral wall pressures designated as an "other" load (with custom load combinations). I'm seeing that that load is globally distributing to the various shear walls as I would expect…
