Using the analysis results from FEM and wall end support node reactions of shells, it would be great to have the option to design continuous footings via the foundation module similar to the spread and combined footings design module, or via extra...

RAM Steel does the vibration check based on FloorVibe. However, with complex geometry finite element basis on design guide 11 is required to check vibrations. Other programs like ETABS, Robot Autodesk or Tekla does these calculations. Please have...

It will be nice to have aluminium materials in the design options; this will help those of us who frequently check aluminium member capacity; STAAD may have this; but we need this in Elements. These will make Elements complete program.

Ability to generate moving loads in RAM Elements similar to STAAD.Pro.

Ability to add point loads or line loads to areas. Areas would then distribute the loads to the supporting members based on the direction of the area.

I would like a button that would clear ALL loads in ALL load cases from the selected nodes

The ability to add steel beam web openings would be very helpful. SBeam is the only way to do that now, but it requires pulling loads out of Elements, instead of being integrated into the main program or even the steel beam module.

please add a feature to model and design circular or curved beams.

I would love to have gridlines to help keep everything straight. Also, a toggle switch that doesn't allow you to select the grids.

It has come to my attention that the program is using the Foundation base-soil friction coefficient to compute the passive pressure resistance when using Columb (it's using this to back calculate "delta"). To be frank, this is just wrong IMO. The ...
