The sloping framing feature allows the engineer to directly take into consideration the slope of the beams and differing column lengths when performing a lateral analysis.

A sloping beam or a wall member can be created in RAM Modeler by changing elevation height of columns located on a typical story (refer to the RAM Modeler section). Coordinates of all beams and wall members that are framed into these columns are set properly so that the effect of the sloping angle is carried out in stiffness calculation of beam and wall members
