Partially calculating the results
The slider on the left side of the Calc dialog box determines the level to which RAM Concept performs the calculations. The options are:
Setting | Description |
---|---|
Through analysis | Calculations are performed up to and including the global slab analysis (slab moments deflections, etc.) and the strip and section forces. |
Through design | RAM Concept performs the design of strips, sections and punching shear checks, in addition to all the Through analysis calculations. |
Through layout | RAM Concept performs the layout of program reinforcement on the Reinforcement layer, in addition to all the Through design calculations. |
All | RAM Concept performs the detailing of program reinforcement into individual bars (viewable in perspectives), in addition to all the Through layout calculations. |
The checkboxes on the right side of the Calc dialog window provide options on how RAM Concept performs the calculations. The options are:
Setting | Description |
---|---|
Skip warnings | Optional warnings do not stop the calculations, but are added as notes to the Calc Log. This setting is off by default. |
Calculate only out-of-date items | Existing calculation results are not replaced by new calculations unless RAM Concept detects that the existing calculations are out-of-date. This setting is on by default. |
Warnings invalidate calculations | Previous calculation warnings are considered to invalidate their associated results, causing the re-calculation of the item that caused the warning. This setting is on by default. |
