Line support properties
The following is a list of RAM Concept line support properties:
Setting | Description |
---|---|
Name | User-defined label used to identify the support in output. This label is automatically transferred to meshed line supports during mesh generation. |
Elevation above slab soffit | Vertical distance between the line support and the soffit. |
Translation along support fixed (OFF for line of symmetry) | Prevents the slab from moving along the support axis. |
Translation across support fixed (ON for line of symmetry) | Prevents the slab from moving across the support axis. |
Translation in z-direction fixed (OFF for line of symmetry) | Prevents the slab from deflecting up or down at the support axis. |
Rotation about support axis fixed (ON for line of symmetry) | Prevents rotation of the slab about the support’s longitudinal axis. |
Rotation about perp.-to-support fixed (OFF for line of sym) | Prevents rotation of the slab about the support’s transverse axis. |
