I'm new in Ram Element, I'm doing a simple steel support frame model, and there is a small catwalk (grating) on top of the frame. When I define area with four nodes of four beam, and define the live load as 0.1kips/ft² at -1 Y direction, span along z direction, so I assign load area direction parallel to z. when I analysis, there is a warning says "distributed load "1" in member "650" at load condition "LL=Live Load" is zero, it will not be considered during the analysis". I checked the beams under Live load, there are load on them, but why the ram gave me warning?
Could any one help me to explain this? Any feedback is appreciated.
