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...

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 ...

The ability in the tilit-up module to apply concentrated (vertical and out-of-plane) loads at locations in-between supports of the walls.

Add a Tapered Column and Beam design options to all of RAM SS modules

For bolted flange plate beam-to-girder configurations, RAM currently uses a bolted flange plate only at the top flange, and shows a CJP weld for the bottom flange to girder web. We often will use flange plates at BOTH beam flanges. It would be gre...

We often use directly-welded moment connections, with beam flanges that are full-pen welded to the supporting member. RAM Connection can do that for beam-to-column connections, but it would be great if you could add that connection for beam-to-gir...

It would be nice to be able to see the wind pressures on the 3D view of the building.

allow for snow and roof live loads in the same model more intuitiveness in the software to resolve small dimensional differences remove modules and allow layout and analysis to be performed in the same space create a better GUI interface for addin...

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 ...
