I'd like to specify the bar length format consistently as 8'-4" rather than a decimal value based on the current units (8.33 or 100).

Allow for users to specify/override the Cp Leeward value in ASCE 7 wind generation to account for buildings built as additions to existing structures or allow for future additions to the current model. Current wind generation is unconservative in ...

When modeling braced frames on structures with sloping roofs, you are forced to model the diaphragm at one level without slope for proper lateral load application; this causes the brace geometry to be wrong. It would be nice to be able to model th...

We are increasingly being asked to assess options on the basis of carbon intensity. It would save many engineers lots of time if RAM SS & RAM Concept had the capability of calculating embodied carbon. It is a very simple addition - it could be...

Could we get the option for other than rectangular openings in shells? Round openings in particular would be very helpful, especially in an FEA program where sharp corners create large stress concentrations that may not even be present when many o...

I would like to request that you make an option available to make the units for the bar presentation different from the units that I work with in plan. I tend to work with inches when I am adjusting the geometries of slabs and bars because working...

Add connection type - 'Toe Plates'. Commonly used on site to provide a moment connection between cross-beams. Add connection type - 'Base Plate - Column on Beam Top Flange' Add feature to allow gusset plate lengths at beam interface to be modified...

RAM connection is not having an option to design the thru bolt connection - baseplate is connected to the concrete with thru bolt. Instead of post anchor and preinstalled anchors, sometimes it is needed to use thru bolt connection. Please find the...

This will save time when checking typical base plate locations and identify when model/load changes affect the base plate acceptability.
