The View > Gravity Loads command is used to display the member gravity loads that are automatically calculated by the program. The loads are calculated from the applied surface loads and self weight. User applied line and point loads are also displayed.

Select one of the load types shown in the dialog box and click Apply to have the selected member gravity loads displayed on the screen. Note that only those load types defined in the Modeler are displayed in this list. If a load type is defined in the RAM Modeler but not assigned to the model, selecting that load type will not display any member loads. It may be preferable to be in low resolution or in elevation view when observing applied loads on large structures.
