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...

Updating Cracked Factors in Ram Modeler should not delete wall design groups/section cuts/rebar assignments in RAM Concrete Wall

Currently, if the user sets up wall designs in Ram Concrete Wall, updating the cracked factor in RAM Modeler deletes all Concrete Wall groups/section cuts/rebar assignments/etc stating that "the geometry of the wall was updated." This gets extreme...
