Strengthening of Slab using Carbon Fiber.

Hi Karl, I hope this message finds you well. May I please request you to add a feature in RAM Concept where we can model the carbon strip laminates to the soffit of the slab and check the change in the slab capacity and the quantity of CFRP requir...

Unbalanced Snow Loads

I would love to see expanded snow loading capabilities that let you apply different load distributions that are enveloped for design. Specifically for gable roof structures, ASCE 7 requires that you apply a "balanced" load (uniform across the whol...

Add Wood Framing to Ram SS

Please add the ability to model and design wood beams in Ram SS. We design many structures that are a combination of wood, concrete and steel, and including design of wood members would not be difficult to incorporate. It would help RAM catch up w...

Lateral Drift Load Combinations for Wind

There seems to be a fundamental problem with lateral drift for wind in RAM Frame. Currently, accounting for lateral drift in accordance with ASCE 7, Appendix CC "Serviceability Considerations" requires some juggling. To follow this procedure, one ...

Save the analysis and design results after closing the application so that next day you can pick up from where you left and don't need to re-analyze the model.

This feature will save the user runtime by not analysis the model again and again after it is closed once your working hours are done and next day engineer can pick it up from the same page where he left without re analysis the model, sometimes th...

Early Age Strength Checks for Temporary Loading during Construction

It is well documented that all slabs undergo a variety of loading combinations during construction when the concrete has not yet achieved its target design strength. In the UK this is commonly during the second and third weeks, following the slab ...

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.

Aluminium Design Features

It will be nice to have aluminium materials in the design options; this will help those of us who frequently check aluminium member capacity; STAAD may have this; but we need this in Elements. These will make Elements complete program.

Add CMU Material Defaults and Design

We design many buildings that include a combination of materials. Integrating masonry material properties by default and adding design for masonry would be useful, similar to Risa.
