| Section Label |
Type a unique label used to identify the section. |
| Shape |
Select an either Rectangular or Circular column profile.
The Geometry parameters vary
dependant on the shape selection. The diagram updates to reflect the
required input.

| H |
(Rectangular) The column depth. |
| B |
(Rectangular) The column width. |
| Diam |
(Circular) The column diameter. |

| Cracked Section Factor |
For all concrete sections cracked section factors can be specified for
Axial, Flexural, and
Torsion stiffness modification. These cracked
factors will be used in both RAM Frame and RAM
Concrete Gravity Analysis to modify the gross member stiffness for the
associated section property. The factor specified will be multiplied
directly to the calculated section property stiffness so a value of 1.0 will
produce no modification and the gross section stiffness value will be used.
