Add directly-welded moment connections for beam-to-girder configurations.

We often use directly-welded moment connections, with beam flanges that are full-pen welded to the supporting member. RAM Connection can do that for beam-to-column connections, but it would be great if you could add that connection for beam-to-gir...

Expose design strips through the RAM Concept API

The missing component in a largely automated workflow is the ability to draw design strips/span segments, specify settings and read results through the RAM API. It would be a massive help if this functionality was incorporated. We've seen other co...

Concrete Column Slenderness Check to ACI 318

When the bottom of the Column is a foundation and user elects to use Col forces from RAM Concept whereby no Concept forces/moments and therefore RSS will use RAM Conc Analysis(for Col bottom forces and those moments are always negative), for a lac...

I checked with Bentley support team for design of Concrete column in RAM Elelments. As i can see the design can be performed in two different ways.

Output - Output - Design – Reinforced concrete – Members Concrete column module. But the Bentley team suggested checking the column design under the concrete column module. In this way, only the program gives detailed design reports. But it looks ...

Have the ability to create "typical" base plate configurations that can be applied to many nodes.

This will save time when checking typical base plate locations and identify when model/load changes affect the base plate acceptability.
