    Hello Todd,

    Thank you for the suggestion.

    RAM Elements 2026 introduced automatic seismic load generation using the ASCE 7 Equivalent Lateral Force (ELF) procedure. RAM Elements also includes Wind Load Definitions and Notional Load generation.

    Since RAM Structural System is primarily a building-focused solution and RAM Elements is a general-purpose structural analysis and design application, could you provide more details on the specific RAM SS lateral load workflow you would like to see implemented in RAM Elements? This will help us better evaluate the request and understand the desired behavior.
