Currently you can only export the end reactions to a report. It would be beneficial to be able to export the reactions at ever node (specifically to a text file) a long the wall for foundation design.
In the Analysis -> Load Combinations we are able to view a member force envelope for the Max or Min, but not the absolute value for worst case loading. When looking at a braced frame elevation with brace axial loads, in order to determine the a...
Allow gusset BASE PLATE connections to be assigned at corner columns connected to braces in two directions.
Currently, there is no way to design a gusset base plate connection if the column base has braces coming into it from 2 different planes. You can't even assign 2 separate connections, one for each plane, like you can at CBB joints.
Models with large quantities of sideplate connections exhibit huge delays when changing between operations (show member info, view update, assignments, etc.). This extends to the concrete module which has nothing to do with steel. This issue has p...
Elements needs an analysis overhaul. I have a model with less than 1000 frame members and 200 load combinations. Several cases have imposed displacements and Elements mandates a P-Delta analysis for this situation. It takes 10 minutes to analyze a...
Check the number of stirrup legs required for beams per ACI 318-19 9.7.6.2.2
In ACI 318-19, they added a maximum spacing between stirrup legs in beams. I think the program bars generated in RAM concept should increase the number of legs to meet this criteria.

Future consideration
In this version, each joints are designed after they are selected as per each type but too many case should be designed manually. Interface of RAM is great but it takes much time to input all the data of joints.
Suggested as below;
1. Joint grou...
