Provide a better, cleaner translation when importing a RAM SS model into RAM Elements. The Centerline layout in RAM SS is difficult to work with in RAM Elements.

Add torsional design to concrete columns to meet ACI requirements for seismic design.

Section 2204.3 of the 2022 California Building Code requires anchor-bolt bending to be considered for shear transfer with a base-plate with oversized holes. Please add this check / design to Ram Connection.

I believe it would be beneficial to incorporate stiffeners into skewed angled shear connections to enhance their strength and stability. Implementing this adjustment could improve performance and overall structural integrity.

RAM connection is not having an option to design the thru bolt connection - baseplate is connected to the concrete with thru bolt. Instead of post anchor and preinstalled anchors, sometimes it is needed to use thru bolt connection. Please find the...

Currently, the program seems to only design per NDS provisions for solid-sawn lumber and glulam. It would be beneficial to add the ability to analyze and design LVL, PSL, and other structural composite lumber types. The provisions are very similar...

I don't need multiple design warnings for the same condition. For example, I have an out-of-plane shear strength warning for one of my segments. I have 26 warnings (associated with 26 combinations) for the same condition. The "worst" one listed in...

I am currently designing a horizontal column-beam-brace connection where one beam is a W12 section and the other is a W8 section. I would like to design the gusset plate using a bolted flange connection. However, I have noticed that the software c...

In the current project I am working on, I need to design steel supports for the pipework. In some cases there are torsional moments and their effects on base plate have to be addressed. At the moment, Base Plate design in RAM Connection does not i...

The ability to cancel last point when drawing an area load, deck assignment or mat foundation like you can in RAM Concept. It's especially frustrating when drawing a mat foundation and you accidentally click the wrong point and have to start over ...
