I'm working on a mat slab on grade to support a silo at a concrete batch plant and wanted to model the slab in RAM Concept.
1. Our model for a slab on grade has flagged ACI318 section 7.12. Per ACI318 section R7.12.1, this section is not for slabs-on-grade. Why does RAM Concept check temperature and shrinkage reinforcement for a mat slab on grade, and is there a way to turn off this check?
2. Is there a way to change RAM's program assigned distributed reinforcement default output from number of bars to a bar spacing (without changing to user defined bar spacing)?
3. Is there a way to view/output the formulas and calculations (for a report), similar to RAM Connection's reports?
