Point spring properties
The following is a list of RAM Concept point spring properties:
Setting | Description |
---|---|
Name | User-defined label used to identify the spring in output. This label is automatically transferred to meshed point springs during mesh generation. |
Elevation above slab soffit | Vertical distance between the point spring and the soffit. |
Spring Angle (r=x, s=y@0) | Orientation of the local axes. The plan shows spring orientation. |
R-Force Constant | Spring constant in the direction of the local r-axis. |
S-Force Constant | Spring constant in the direction of the local s-axis. |
Z-Force Constant | Spring constant in the direction of the global z-axis. |
R-Axis Moment Constant | Angular spring constant about the local r-axis. |
S-Axis Moment Constant | Angular spring constant about the local s-axis. |
