Below is a list of thoughts about lateral point(nodal)/line loads. Incorporating any of the below ideas would be helpful. 1. Allow the user to apply lateral line loads as well as lateral point(nodal) loads. 2. Allow the user to apply lateral point...

It would be very useful to be able to calculate the deflection of fixed-end composite beams in RAM Beam.

Please add an option in RAM Modeler > Layout > Foundations > Mat > Geometry to "Change Polygon". Currently, the only option is to "Modify Coordinates". It would be much faster to have a GUI that lets users snap to grid or construction ...

It would be a time saver to not require reanalysis of the building for changing/adding a foundation element or their properties, by allowing modeling to be conducted in the foundation module.

Some reports are long and take a while to load. It would be nice to have the ability to terminate the report loading/printing process.

Add a feature to allow for varying report detail levels. Short, medium, and long very detailed reports.

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...

Please add selection set presets for groups of load cases in the analyze dialogue in RAM Frame. I always have at least groups of load combos for strength and groups for deflection, and sometimes have groups for modal analysis. It would be great to...

Please revise shear wall module to not automatically delete sections cuts, groups, wall reinforcing, etc. when I change f'c, wall stiffness modifiers, or thicknesses.

Provide an option to connect elements for one level to the adjacent level other than columns
