To create an iTwin repository from the currently loaded RAM Structural System model, use the following procedure.

1. Select Bentley Cloud Services > iTwin Services to display the iTwin commands on the side panel.
2. Do either of the following:

   If an iTwin file is listed under Synchronize to file:	If an iTwin file is not listed under Synchronize to file:
   Click on the file name. The Setup Local Sync dialog opens. Select +New. Navigate to the directory in which the iTwin is to be created. Specify a new file name and then click Save. It is not necessary to type the .ism.dgn extension. The iTwin repository is now listed in the Setup Local Sync dialog. Click Confirm. Click Push to file.	Click Push to file. Select +New. Navigate to the directory in which the iTwin is to be created. Specify a new file name and then click Save. It is not necessary to type the .ism.dgn extension. The iTwin repository is now listed in the Setup Local Sync dialog. Click Sync.

3. (Optional) In the Push to file dialog, toggle on the Show change management option. This cause the iTwin Analytical Synchronizer to launch in step 9. If not selected, then steps 9 and 10 will be skipped.
4. Enter a Commit message. This text will be listed in History, associated with the creation of the iTwin. Alternatively, toggle to Show change management to cause the iTwin Analytical Synchronizer to be launched after the creation of the iTwin, at which time the description can be entered.
5. Select Push.
6. If the RAM Structural System has not been saved, a message will be given. Save the model to continue.
7. The Create Repository progress dialog will appear, and then the Mappings dialog will open. If the model has Composite or Noncomposite decking, the decking will be listed on the Slabs/Decks tab. To properly associate the decking to that recognized by iTwin, do the following:
   1. Select a deck from the list and select Edit.
   2. Unselect the No Mapping option.
   3. Select the iTwin deck type that mostly closely matches the intended deck profile (the iTwin currently only recognizes a small subset of decks) and select OK.
   4. Repeat for each deck in the list.
   The Operation Settings tab has several settings that allow for adjustments pertaining to tolerances, nodes, elements, etc. It isn’t generally necessary to make changes to these settings, but in some cases can be adjusted to refine the transfer of model information. Make changes, as desired.
8. Select OK or Cancel to dismiss the Mappings dialog.
9. After the iTwin has been created, the iTwin Analytical Synchronizer will be launched, and the iTwin displayed. Model entities can be Accepted or Rejected (that is, included or excluded from the iTwin model) as desired. See the iTwin Analytical Synchronizer Help for information on using that application. Select Update to save the iTwin.
10. In the Commit Message dialog enter a Commit Message describing this version of the iTwin model, and select OK.
11. Select Show Details to view a list of any errors that occurred during the creation of the iTwin.
12. Select Close to close the Create Repository dialog.
13. On the iTwin Services panel, select the X icon next to Push to file to close the command and return to the standard iTwin Services panel view.
14. Before exiting the RAM Structural System, save the model so that the model’s association with the iTwin will be preserved.
