Ram Elements Version 11 - Unbraced Lengths
Ram Elements Version 11 - Unbraced Lengths
(OP)
Version 11 of Elements revised how unbraced lengths (Lb, L33, L22) were input. The sum of unbraced lengths must now match the totla length of the segment. This is very frustrating to me and it makes it very difficult for modeling. Has anyone had any similar issues with this? What are the work arounds? Is there a convient way of assigning something as fully braced?
Not to mention, it is now impossible to run older models without updating every member.

It is definitely a royal pain if you have an in-progress model that was started in the older version and then you switch to the latest version unaware of this obstacle. You are basically forced to re-assign all your beam bracing.
