The RAM Modeler allows the user to quickly create the database of even the most complex building structures. Its intuitive interface and methodology makes it easy to learn. By utilizing a graphical modeler, the user immediately sees what is being modeled. Modeling errors are visually apparent and can be easily corrected. Changes to the structure required by the Architect, Owner, or Client can be quickly and easily accommodated.
The RAM Steel Beam Design module is a powerful tool that allows engineers to quickly design the gravity beams of a structure. It works in conjunction with the RAM Modeler, making it easy to alter design criteria, building codes and even the floor plan in search of the most efficient design.
RAM Steel Column Design allows the engineer to design gravity columns in either interactive mode or batch mode. It also allows for the design of base plates.
RAM Frame analyzes the model created in the RAM Modeler. Typically the model can contain both gravity and frame members and gravity loads distribution can be carried out according to one-way or two-way load distribution. The program provides data for all of the gravity and lateral members plus deck information, slab edges and surface loads. Referring to systems with one-way slabs, tributary floor load, reactions from gravity beams and live load reduction factors are determined and applied to the lateral members. Diaphragm mass properties are calculated for each diaphragm at stories. Also for systems with two-way slabs, gravity loads can be directly applied to slabs, which allow engineers to include two-way load distribution for gravity loads.
RAM Concrete Gravity Analysis is used to calculate all gravity concrete beam and column forces. The gravity forces are calculated using finite element analysis of each floor in a structure. The reactions from each floor’s analysis are carried down and automatically applied to the analysis of the floor below. A quadrilateral finite element mesh is generated for a floor if it contains a two way deck within a slab edge loop on that floor. The program automatically considers skip loading for live loads on the beam lines lying under one way decking if desired.
The RAM Foundation module is a powerful tool for analyzing and designing concrete spread, continuous, and pile foundations. It is completely integrated into the RAM Structural System with all gravity and lateral loads as well as column and base plate information automatically available for the footing design. Once the basic design parameters have been entered, the analysis and design optimization can be performed on individual footings or on the complete model. The final design reported includes footing dimensions as well as reinforcement selections conforming to all specified code criteria.
