Lifting lugs and cap plates are always needed for modular design which is done within Staad + Ram Connection...these are standard type of connections and their design should be accommodated within the programs vs having to use other programs to do...

RAM Steel does the vibration check based on FloorVibe. However, with complex geometry finite element basis on design guide 11 is required to check vibrations. Other programs like ETABS, Robot Autodesk or Tekla does these calculations. Please have...

Ability to generate moving loads in RAM Elements similar to STAAD.Pro.

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...

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.

please add a feature to model and design circular or curved beams.

Update AS3600 to latest version (2018) in Ram Concrete Module for concrete beam, column & wall design

Ability to add point loads or line loads to areas. Areas would then distribute the loads to the supporting members based on the direction of the area.

I would love to have gridlines to help keep everything straight. Also, a toggle switch that doesn't allow you to select the grids.

The ability to add steel beam web openings would be very helpful. SBeam is the only way to do that now, but it requires pulling loads out of Elements, instead of being integrated into the main program or even the steel beam module.
