D. RAM Connection pad

Used to inspect connection details, edit a connections input, and access steel connection design results.

Opens when a connection icon is double clicked in the View window.

Note: The appearance and layout of the Connection pad varies depending on which version of RAM Connection is installed. The tools and operation remain essentially the same.

The connection pad is required for the creation of templates for the database and also to review/edit a model connection, or many model connections with the connections detailer. It is accessed when any template of the database is edited, when the user double clicks a model connection, or when several identical model connections are selected and the detailing command is invoked from the main menu.
