Hello -
My office still uses version 3.0 of RAM SBeam. When analyzing composite beams, I notice in the output that phi factor of 0.85 and 0.9 are used for flexure and shear, respectively. RAM SBeam v3.0 uses the 3rd Edition of AISC LRFD; however, I do not see these factors (I see/am used to phi factors of 0.9 and 0.75 for flexure and shear, respectively).
Can anyone provide some insight? Thanks in advance!
