RAM Concept Help

The code rules selected in Rule Set "Service" (Sustained Service / Max Service) do not appear compatible with the load factors in the load combinations using the rule set. This is likely an error.

Any load combination that uses the Service (and Sustained Service / Max Service) rule sets should logically have a load factor of 1 for the Balance Loading (regardless of the presence of tendons) and load factors of no more than 1 for dead and live loadings. RAM Concept provides the warning when this is violated.

The warning usually occurs when you have added load combinations and forgotten to enter the Balance Loading load factors. To avoid the warning change all load factors for the Balance Loading to 1 for all of the load combinations that utilize the service (sustained service / max service) rule sets.
