Custom Load Combinations in RAM Steel Beam/Steel Column

Please add the ability to generate load combinations and create custom load combinations in RAM Steel Beam and RAM Steel Column for the gravity loads. Updated codes and additional requirements (such as the need to incorporate FM Global datasheets) create the need for engineers to control their gravity load combinations.

    For version 2026 we are expanding the combinations considered in gravity beam and column design and made adjustments so that snow load and other live loads are correctly factored in combinations. Combinations are still not entirely user-defined, but this is an improvement.
