To create a new RAM Structural System model from an existing iTwin repository, use the following procedure.

1. If there is currently a model open in the RAM Structural System, close the model by selecting File > Close Model.
2. Select Bentley Cloud Services > iTwin Services to display the iTwin commands on the side panel.
3. Select Pull from file.
4. In the Setup Local Sync dialog, select Select, and navigate to the iTwin from which the model is to be created. Select the iTwin and select Open.
5. With the iTwin repository now listed in the Setup Local Sync dialog, select Sync.
6. In the Pull from file dialog the description of the latest version of that iTwin repository will be displayed. If you want the iTwin Analytical Synchronizer to appear before the RAM Structural System model is created, toggle on Show change management. Select Pull.
7. A prompt to specify the RAM Structural System model will appear. Navigate to the desired directory, specify the file name for the new RAM Structural System model, and select Save.
8. The Create From Repository progress dialog will appear. The Tables Selection dialog will appear. On each tab, select the tables that are to be associated with the model. Select OK.
9. If the Show change management option was toggled on, the iTwin Analytical Synchronizer will be launched, and the iTwin displayed. Model entities can be Accepted or Rejected (that is, included or excluded from the RAM Structural System model) as desired. See the iTwin Analytical Synchronizer Help for information on using that application. Select Update to save the iTwin to the RAM Structural System model.
10. The Mappings dialog will open. If the model has Composite or Noncomposite decking, the decking will be listed on the Slabs/Decks tab. If the association was done previously it is not necessary to repeat these steps. Otherwise, if in the RSS Deck Type column there are any decks that indicate "<Not Mapped>", those decks should be associated with a deck recognized by the RAM Structural System. To properly associate the Composite decking between that found in the iTwin and that desired for use in the RAM Structural System model, do the following:
    1. Select a Composite deck from the list and select Edit.
    2. Unselect the No Mapping option.
    3. Select the RSS deck type that is to be used in the RAM Structural System model to represent the deck listed for the iTwin.
    4. Repeat for each Composite deck in the list.
    For Noncomposite decking do the following:
    1. Select a Noncomposite deck from the list and select Edit.
    2. Unselect the No Mapping option.
    3. Enter a Deck Type Label that will be used for that deck in the RAM Structural System.
    4. Repeat for each Noncomposite deck in the list.
    The Operation Settings tab has several settings that allow for adjustments pertaining to tolerances, nodes, elements, etc. It isn’t generally necessary to make changes to these settings, but in some cases can be adjusted to refine the transfer of model information. Make changes, as desired.
11. Select OK or Cancel to dismiss the Mappings dialog.
12. Select Show Details to view a list of any errors that occurred during the creation of the iTwin.
13. Select Close to close the Create From Repository dialog.
