Problem Description
A blank "Analyze Error" dialog is displayed when running the RAM Concrete Analysis. In some circumstances it can also result in "Analyze Error 4"
Reason
The error is associated with corrupt settings in the Analysis Criteria dialog. See below. Common examples of bad settings include:
1. No solver selected.
2. Values of 0 for mesh parameters: Merge Node Tolerance, Max Distance Allowed Between Nodes, and Geometry Tolerance.
3. Large value for Minimum Number of Stations per Beam.
4. No Rigid End Zone option selected.
5. No Beam Torsion Stiffness option selected
Steps to Resolve
Redefine the settings with appropriate values. The program installed defaults can be found here:
