Masonry Module Load Distribution at openings

Lateral loads on openings can only be distributed to the sides (X direction) which is appropriate for opening width less than the height. Many openings are linear with the width greater than the height. Can an option be added to distribute loads i...

Merge multiple connections which happen at one joint

I had a connection that required a shear connection framing from one beam, a moment connection from another beam and a horizontal brace from another beam all at one column. The detailer needed a combined detail merged as one. As another example, w...

Only show column size tag once if column is continuous floor-to-floor.

In SColumn 3D view, viewing the column sizes shows labels at each floor. The labels often overlap (especially at HSS columns) and it is difficult to see. Recommend only showing the size tag once if the column is not spliced. Other parameters (Lb, ...

RAM Connection/RAM SS brace angle override

It would be nice if the integrated RAM Connection would allow a permanent override of brace angle on CBB and CVR connections. RAM SS designs to an analytical line at the top of the beams, and we design braced frame connections to the centerline. t...

Continuous Footing - Option to not consider perpendicular footings

Provide an option so that perpendicular footing loads are not applied to the continuous footing. I'm not sure I understand why the program does this in the first place. It seems like you are accounting for the load twice under the current rules.
