Referring to Fig. R17.7.2.1a & Fig. R17.11.3.1 from ACI318-19 (refer attached sketch), these are the two similar concrete breakout failures one in case of Anchor bolts (case 1) and other for shear lug (case 2). In both cases, concrete breakout...

It is already widely used

Design Guide 1 allows for the use of oversized holes with washers that are welded (or not welded) for installation purposes. It would be nice to be able to have an option that would you could select that would include geometric checks.

Currently the customisation option available for Shear lug provision for Baseplate design as per CSA S16 is very limited. We can currently only give one lug (Rectangular shape) in both the directions. We would like to have customisation options wh...

Weld group only calculates fillet welds. Seems like a simple addition to check partial penetration groove, flare bevel, and other welds.

Currently for beam to column connections, if the beam is HSS then the column must also be HSS. This is very limiting. It would be nice to allow HSS beam to WF column connections. The forces are often shear, moment & torsion. It would be great ...

For bolted flange plate beam-to-girder configurations, RAM currently uses a bolted flange plate only at the top flange, and shows a CJP weld for the bottom flange to girder web. We often will use flange plates at BOTH beam flanges. It would be gre...
