Shear reinforcement check for concrete breakout in shear lug case
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...
Sería ideal que en futuras versiones de RAM Connection se incorpore la funcionalidad de imprimir los reportes de las juntas de forma simultánea. Esto evitaría la necesidad de imprimirlos uno por uno, lo cual puede resultar un proceso tedioso y poc...
In this version, each joints are designed after they are selected as per each type but too many case should be designed manually. Interface of RAM is great but it takes much time to input all the data of joints.
Suggested as below;
1. Joint grou...
Open multiple RAM Connection file at the same time.
It would be more convienient if we could open multiple RAM connection file at the same. Sometimes, it is needed to open multiple models of different connection types to compare and check.
Add AISC 2017 (15th Edition) for Design Checks and References
The code and page references don't match the current version of AISC which the 2018 IBC and now 2021 IBC reference. Consider updating to provide an option to check connections with the 15th edition of AISC.
Allow for an option for oversized holes with weld washers per DG1
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.
Option to edit joint description for weld groups and bolt groups that use EMPTY joint
Currently (v13.9) weld groups and bolt group do not have the option to enter/edit a joint description as they are created directly using a tool. So there is the need to define them for this connections.
In a project, currently there appears to be no way to reorder the connections that have been added to the project. They will always be listed and numbered in the order in which they were added. It would be great if there was a way to manually renu...
