Good morning!
I have a project were I am doing pile supported mats that are supporting shear walls at the elevators and stair shafts. I also have shear walls that are supported by pile supported grade beams. The grade beams have not been modeled and when i export from RAM SS to RAM Concept it also transfers the forces for the grade beam supported walls. Then it gives me lots of errors for the forces that are not supported in RAM Concept. Can these errors be ignored since they are not loads on the mats I am designing in RAM Concept or will they cause problems with my design? Is there an easy way to model the pile supported grade beams (even with the footing steps)?
Thanks,
Mike
