Hi, While performing anchor bolt design (Pinned type) through RAM connection V13 update 1, shear check of anchor bolt is showing as safe and loads are not considered correctly for the same when shear values entered under force type "V3". Once shear…

Just wondering if there is an API command for this in this 8 V2 or V3.

For example, design strip settings, design rules, or calc options. Is there a way to change their default settings so I don't have to change them every time I create a new file?

When I opened CPT through RSS file, it's full of not responding, lags, and extremely slow. I see none of these issue when I opened the same slab from CPT. Is there a way to get away from this?

I'm just wondering if there is a way we can check which load case control or design of reinforcements in the slab.

The definition in the manual for the Cover to CGS is "the distance from the top of the slab to the bottom of the top bar". This will be the bottom of TOP bar or TOPTOP bar? What I've found is that, this value greatly affects the result of punching shear…

So, when I generate the strip, I received this error, and after the process is done, I received a few warnings saying my design strip-strip very narrow. Are they related? What caused this error and how can I fix them? The warnings point to a few strips…

Hi: I am working on a project where we sized the footings at our BRB frames like small mat foundations in RAM Concept. We sized them to stay within the maximum soil pressures given by the geotechnical engineer. We now want to use RAM Concept to determine…

Hello. I am having trouble modeling design strips on a slab at a shear wall area, which cantilevers out at two sides around the shear core. I am using PT to attempt to limit deflection but I am having problem with top stress failure. I know I may have…

I have a 10" slab with Gr. 60 #6 at 18" OC each way T&B (steel density provided= .0024 each face) and I'm getting a design status error for ACI 318-14 section 8.6.1.1 (minimum steel). When I use the section audit, it appears as though the steel is accounted…

When Looking at Service Seismic LC 0.6D - 0.7E, how do I know which Load case it is showing. My model was imported from RAM SS which had RAM frame run with all 36-E cases. Also can I model a tension only spring to find the total uplift force to see how…

I have four shear walls that make a core modeled in RAM SS. when I export the model into RAM concepts to design the mat foundation, an error pops up saying the wall is not connected to a slab. Since I am exporting out the second floor the footings are…
