Add wind uplift load cases to RAM Frame.

Hi Karl, I hope this message finds you well. May I suggest adding a feature in RAM Concept where the structure can be modelled/imported based on AutoCAD layers, so if I select polyline from acad in Concept and ask it to import it as a slab and lik...

Enhancement submitted on behalf of Taye Ojo, from Jacobs Engineering Group. CS0222072 – PBI PRODUCT BACKLOG ITEM 1509265: Is there a way to include in the stresses that are compared vs 0.2F´c for the check of section 18.10.6.3.

We need a way to access and edit nodal loads through data access. It is painful having to manually define and assign all the point loads through the modeler elevation view. Could we at least assign them in frame? Instead of assigning point loads t...

Enhancement submitted on behalf of John Gruber. CS0134441 - PBI PRODUCT BACKLOG ITEM 1526907: NDS Cr values for assemblies. My member I was analyzing is 4-2x12. Therefore, there are four 2” nominal thickness members and are more than three members...

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...

Sometimes I have two models and would like to combine them.Unfortunately the OpenRE format does not include steel design properties. I would like to either add Steel design properties to the OpenRE file and/OR add an option to import directly from...

It will be helpful for RAM Concept to allow the engineer to specify at what stage the PT slab or beam will be stressed, in a similar mechanism to what RAPT allows. It would also be helpful for RAM Concept to warn the user when Clause 8.1.6.2 is no...

When you are defining a floor in RSS, it would be very useful to be able to import drawings in DWG formats to be used as a template or reference file to define the floor data. You can do this in Ram Concept.; why not in RSS?

We don't see many rectangular structures these days. Would be great if RAM Frame could generate wind loads for non-regular building shapes (e.g., "C", "L", & "U" shaped floor plates). This would be a time-saver having not to hand calculate and...
