RAM Frame uses a single mesh size for the entire model - all walls and all floors. An appropriate maximum mesh size for a coupling beam might be as small as 6", but that is excessively small for the entire floor diaphragm. RAM should allow the use...

In a ticket with Bentley Support, we were told that saving a Masonry Wall (*.msw) file directly to a network location is not a supported or recommended workflow. At the moment, when we create a new file and try to "save as" to a network location, ...

Currently it appears the only options for a flange moment connection plate to the web of a column is for a tapered plate. An option for coped and full depth plates should be included, similar Risa (see attached). I am reinforcing a building becaus...

Enhancement submitted on behalf of Mohamed Tramboo. CS0249944 - PBI PRODUCT BACKLOG ITEM 1474359: When we provide primary reinforcement in RAM Connection, the ACI 318 code and the AISC DG1, requires the anchors to have a certain embedment depth so...

As users of the RAM software and a company in the structural engineering sector, we would like to inform you that, to complement the service provided, we believe it is relevant to incorporate the following aspect into the results analysis. For the...

Hi, My suggestion is on the back of posting within the forum https://bentleysystems.service-now.com/community?id=community_question&sys_id=fde7707647004bd8d5d91098c26d4325&anchor=answer_b18d72f247880f10557fd8de536d43d9 My suggestion is to ...

RAM Elements currently allows users to visualize the deformed shape of a structure and obtain displacement results by selecting individual nodes or reviewing result tables. While this provides accurate numerical information, the workflow becomes i...

RAM Elements currently allows users to view the deformed shape of a structure; however, displacement results are primarily obtained by querying individual nodes or reviewing result tables. For medium and large structural models, it is difficult to...

Currently, RAM Elements allows spring supports to be assigned only at nodes. While this approach is suitable for simple models, it becomes impractical for projects where foundations, mats, slabs-on-grade, or other area elements require distributed...

RAM Elements allows force and moment diagrams to be displayed for individual load cases and load combinations. Envelope values can also be reviewed in separate result windows; however, it is currently not possible to display envelope force and mom...
