Wall reaction in kN/m.

Hi Karl, I hope this message finds you well, can we have an option to see the wall reaction in kN/m instead of just kN?

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.

Absolute Member Force Envelope

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...

Retaining Wall Module - Add Wall-soil friction angle for passive soils

It has come to my attention that the program is using the Foundation base-soil friction coefficient to compute the passive pressure resistance when using Columb (it's using this to back calculate "delta"). To be frank, this is just wrong IMO. The ...

Allow construction grids to be converted to primary grids or provide new primary grid tools

Pretty self explanatory. Allow the user to convert a construction grid to a primary gird element. Grids are constantly changing throughout the design process due to requirements for columns to shift/etc. The tools for modifying primary grid system...

Include plan generation when adding Load Combinations with the API

Being able to create custom load combos using the API would be extremely useful if there was an option to specify which plans to generate along with each combo (stress, force, deflection, reactions, soil bearing). Having to create the plans manual...

Reports for meshed shear wall reactions

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.

Updating Cracked Factors in Ram Modeler should not delete wall design groups/section cuts/rebar assignments in RAM Concrete Wall

Currently, if the user sets up wall designs in Ram Concrete Wall, updating the cracked factor in RAM Modeler deletes all Concrete Wall groups/section cuts/rebar assignments/etc stating that "the geometry of the wall was updated." This gets extreme...
