RAM Structural System Help

Assign - Size

Using the Assign > Size command, sizes can be assigned to any concrete beam in the model.

Note: Assigning a new size to a beam will impact your analysis results so you will need to rerun the Concrete Analysis and RAM Frame analysis (if applicable). You can continue with the design after changing a beam size but you will notice that the model status light has changed to yellow for some of the modules and modes.

When the Assign > Size command is selected, the previously defined concrete beam sections available for assignment will be listed in the dialog box. Concrete beam sections are defined in the RAM Modeler. Choose a beam size by clicking on it. The associated dimensions of the Rectangle or T-Section will be displayed to the right.

Click either Single, Fence or All.

Return to the Assign > Size dialog box by clicking the right mouse button.

The Cancel button will close the Assign > Size dialog box without providing the option to assign sizes to any beams.
