Load Case Type Labels
In addition to the user-defined load case labels, load cases are assigned load case type labels to further identify the load cases. The following is a key to deciphering the type labels:
| RAMUSER | This type label is assigned to the gravity load cases generated from the gravity loads in RAM Modeler. |
| RAMUSERNODAL | This type label is assigned to the nodal load cases created in RAM Modeler. |
| Wind or W | Wind load |
| EQ or S | Seismic load |
| NL | Notional Load |
| Dyn | Dynamic load |
| O | "Other" load |
| V | Virtual load |
| User | User-specified story forces |
| X | X axis |
| Y | Y axis |
| X' | X axis with the coordinate axes rotated. |
| Y' | Y axis with the coordinate axes rotated. |
| +E | Plus eccentricity |
| -E | Minus eccentricity |
| NoE | No eccentricity |
| CW | Clockwise |
| CCW | Counter-Clockwise |
| F | Special Provisions for Member Forces |
| Drft | Special Provisions for Drift |
| Fdtn | Special Provisions for Foundation Forces |
| CQC | CQC Modal Combination |
| SRSS | SRSS Modal Combination |
| CSA | Construction Stage Analysis |
