There should be options for checking gravity beams/columns for multiple load combinations. Having to select whether snow or live loads are to be used is a bit 1980's era softwaresk. Additionally, it would be beneficial to be allowed to apply wind ...

It's now 2024, many if not all of the requests in this forum have been open requests for YEARS and in some cases over a DECADE. Why is this program not being updated other than for new code requirements? Wind uplift still has not been implemented ...

The HBBB connection should support the selection of tubular members as braces. Additionally, several joint types currently restrict certain section selections for braces. I recommend enabling all joint types to accept any brace section to enhance ...

Sometimes connections are largely customized and when they required for any reason to be repeated in a different model, it is required to customized again. It would be useful to once a connection is completed we could have an option to create a te...

Allow users to reorder load combinations instead of listing them in the order of creation.

Often times I create 3D models of similar frames but they have different tributary widths.For our 2D analysis we apply the loads to the nodes and members and not to areas.When we have to transition to 3D models, it would be great to have the abili...

Provide keyboard shortcuts for RAM Modeler similar to CAD to speed up time it takes to create a model.

In Ram concrete columns, there is often an error in the design of the columns which is due to the spacing of shear links whereas it is impossible to change the spacing manually, thus making all the columns design failing due to a shear links spaci...

You are able to model braced frames with HSS column, beam, and brace in RAM Modeler/Frame. However when you push this to RAM connection you are unable to design the connection at this joint. This is very limiting.

It would be extremely useful to be able to create "regions" on a spread footing design with different soil depths.When designing a spread footing/retaining wall combination, there isn't a good single solution at the moment.It would also be nice to...
