D. Steel Connection Design

Steel connections can be designed explicitly using RAM Connection or associated with members using connection tags.

D. Connection Design workflow
The Connection Design mode in STAAD.Pro is used to dynamically link structural model data —including section properties and analysis results— to the RAM Connection application in order to check connection designs for code compliance.
D.Connection Tags
Connection tags are used to associate connection data included in an XML file with members. This data can be exchanged with other programs via the ISM link. The connections can also be checked by defined capacities in the XML file.
