Everyone knows that in order to achieve great heights, you must start with a
strong base. Connecting the two together is the all-important, and often
complicated, base plate. Did you know that RAM Connection provides
comprehensive base plate design capabilities, including pinned, fixed, biaxial,
and gusset base plates? Using this tool saves hours of time over more oldfashioned methods, such as hand calculations, spreadsheets, or the original
RAM Baseplate.
Even for a single standalone base platefor instance when checking a retrofit
job or installing a new light poleRAM Connection is a powerful tool.
Significant time-savings, however, come when used in conjunction with a RAM
Structural System model, RAM Elements model, or STAAD.Pro model. All of
your base plates can be designed for all load combinations in the model, with
the option to group similar connections. When your model changes (as we
know it will), all of the base plates can be redesigned quickly.
In the following models, I've assigned fixed biaxial base plates at the moment
frames. At the braced frames, I've assigned single gusset base plates, pinned
base plates, and a double gusset base plate. Each base plate may be opened
individually for 3D and DXF views.
The next time you need to keep your structure's "feet on the ground" so that it
can "reach for the stars," build a better base plate with RAM Connection!
STAAD.Pro Model
for each connection type. If a parameter is not optimized, the program uses a default
value that be modified in the Connection Pad as needed.
Some complex connection templates like gusset pate or base plates only have a smart
variety.
