Develop a procedure for linking RAM SS & RAM Concept models when both steel framing and two-way slabs are on the same level

There is a pretty nice procedure for importing geometry from RAM SS to RAM Concept for two-way slab design and vise versa to capture the two-way slab properties in RAM SS. But this is really only idealized for when there is only a two-way podium a...

Internalize Floor Vibration Analysis/Design

Given the apparent impasse on acquiring licenses to FloorVibe, and the number of hurdles in the way of using FloorVibe, it seems that integrating this analysis directly within RAM SS would be beneficial. For a long time this was a selling point of...
