Reports - Criteria, Mass and Exposure

The Reports - Criteria, Mass and Exposure command prints a report of the current setting of the General Criteria, Masses and Exposure.

The Story Mass Data includes either the calculated or the user specified mass, mass moment of inertia, coordinates of the center of mass for the rigid diaphragm, and any offset eccentricities as they are currently defined in Loads - Masses for each story.

It also tabulates distributed masses for semirigid diaphragms. In addition, distributed nodal masses can be also included in the report for Semirigid diaphragms if Reports- Include Semirigid diaphragm nodal results command is activated. Otherwise, the report only shows a summary of total nodal masses for Semirigid diaphragms.

The Wind Exposure Data includes a list of story level and indicates whether the level is fully exposed or not exposed. It also includes Parapet height.

Detailed explanation of this report is available in the RAM Frame manual.
