When configuring horizontal brace "boomerang" connections with gusset plates bolted to support members, braces often exist on both sides of the support member. RAM Connection provides specific joint types to model these dual-sided configurations.

However, a critical limitation exists in the software's calculation and user interface:
Symmetrical Input Limitation: Even though the 3D graphic displays two braces, the connection design panel only allows the user to edit and analyse a single brace. The software assumes identical brace profiles and identical loading conditions for both sides by default.
Omitted Web Force Interaction: In reality, when braces are attached to both sides of a girder/beam web, the web experiences simultaneous, combined force components from both bracing systems. RAM Connection currently fails to aggregate these opposing or additive forces. Instead, it evaluates the beam web using the force component from only one side's brace.

Requested Actions & Resolution
As a commercial user, I request that the development team to address the following:
Acknowledge and Validate: Provide confirmation if this is a known limitation and clarify why the software visually represents a dual connection but calculates it as a single-sided connection.
Implement Code Fix: Update the calculation engine to properly aggregate the orthogonal and parallel force components from both braces when checking the support member's web capacity.
Enhance UI: Update the connection panel to allow independent load and profile inputs for both the left and right braces in dual-sided joint types
