In the current project I am working on, I need to design steel supports for the pipework. In some cases there are torsional moments and their effects on base plate have to be addressed. At the moment, Base Plate design in RAM Connection does not i...

There doesn't seem to be a way (at least not obvious) to add custom shapes and materials in the STAAD built-in Ram Connection. So if you have a custom connection like this then you must use the stand-alone. This is frustrating when you are using s...

Update clear cover to beams & columns in one go without selecting beams and columns individually multiple times. This task can be cumbersome, and I believe that getting the option to edit multiple column's information is a great idea to introd...

Section 2204.3 of the 2022 California Building Code requires anchor-bolt bending to be considered for shear transfer with a base-plate with oversized holes. Please add this check / design to Ram Connection.

It would be useful so that we can accurately navigate the model. It is a real pain to navigate RAM as it is and it is much easier in competitors programs. Right now you click and hold the mouse wheel to navigate left and right but it is difficult ...

It would be helpful to have a column/post to beam connection, basically the inverse of the column cap connection. Also be able to use round sections in this and the column cap connection type

We should have the ability to see at least what limit state or element of the connection is failing without having to open the results output, which is very slow and time-consuming. If we were provided a small list of elements/limit states, we cou...

As far as I am aware, RSS does not track the load transfer when a wall is sitting on a one-way deck without a supporting beam or wall directly below. The loads from the wall above the deck is "lost". My firm does a lot of multi-family construction...

Similar to RAMS beam, I'd like an option to globally or individually turn off the bottom flange bracing of beams framing into a support member in the Gravity module. This is somewhat taken care of in the lateral frame module, where you can assign ...

Similar to having handles on area loads, the ability to graphically move line (and point) loads would be really really helpful.
