Remove 0 stress limit from displayed wall stresses in Frame

When viewing wall stresses in RAM Frame, I would like the ability to set the lower bound above 0. This allows me to set a pass/fail stress test. For example, if I’m interested in 0.163 ksi (which I am), I want to set the upper AND lower bound to 0...

extracting data using the API from Audit Cross Section

I tried to find the sets of command using the API to extract data from the Audit Cross section, I believe it would be very great if this feature is available in Ram Concept if not already.

Separate Analysis per load

Many times I will change one load, for example a seismic load which is palced at the Ridge. Then I have to reanalyze and redesign the entire model, every load case. There should be a way to analyze only the affected load cases and redesign only th...

RAM SS- Remove deflection failure report for cambered beams

When the camber of a beam brings the deflection criteria within parameters, the option to turn off flagging them as failed in report would be greatly appreciated. In a large job with several repetitive floors with cambered beams, there can be hun...

Apply different % composite rules for different members

We generally require a different minimum % composite for beams as opposed to girders. It would be beneficial to apply member specific rules, similar to how different deflection criteria is applied.

Check the number of stirrup legs required for beams per ACI 318-19 9.7.6.2.2

In ACI 318-19, they added a maximum spacing between stirrup legs in beams. I think the program bars generated in RAM concept should increase the number of legs to meet this criteria.

Unbalanced Snow Loads on Cantilevers

I am wondering if there has been any progress on implementing 50% unbalanced snow loads for cantilevers. In a forum post from 2020, Seth Guthrie said that it was on the backlog ( https://communities.bentley.com/products/ram-staad/f/ram-staad-forum...
