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...
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 ...

Remove 0 stress limit from displayed wall stresses in Frame
When viewing wall stresses in RAM Frame, I would like the ability to set the lower bound above 0. This allows me to set a pass/fail stress test. For example, if I’m interested in 0.163 ksi (which I am), I want to set the upper AND lower bound to 0...
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...
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.
