Do not clear steel beam sizes when changing noncomposite to composite.
Do not clear steel beam sizes when changing non-composite to composite. I'm not sure if this is deliberate or a bug, but members with assigned sizes can be changed from composite to non-composite in the modeler without losing their assignment. How...
AISC Single plate enhancement for BCW plate stiffener thickness checks
For a BCW connection the stiffeners can be provided at top and bottom flange location of beam. But in design no calculation is shown for the same. So the need to to introduce AISC Single plate enhancement for BCW plate stiffener thickness checks. ...
See PRODUCT BACKLOG ITEM 1677993 In RAM Concrete Beam and Column, we report 0.75*Tn, which is actually 0.75*Tth (see ACI 318-19 22.7.4.1). I recommend using that notation in Concrete Beam and Column Design reports when ACI 318-14 or ACI318-19 is u...
Currently, the concrete column design forces report only shows dead and live loads, but I would like to get combination loads that may include wind, seismic, etc.
Provide the ability to assign a parapet/roof screen/roof projection graphically in RAM Frame for the purposes of customizing the exposure at each top level of a building structure.
Custom Load Combinations in RAM Steel Beam/Steel Column
Please add the ability to generate load combinations and create custom load combinations in RAM Steel Beam and RAM Steel Column for the gravity loads. Updated codes and additional requirements (such as the need to incorporate FM Global datasheets)...
Export reactions from one model and apply to another as loads
When assessing a transfer floor, applying (and updating) transfer loads can be a time consuming process. A feature to export reactions from the floor(s) above and import to the transfer floor model as imposed loads would save time and errors. Pref...

Need column cap plate with moment - (4) bolts each side - (8) bolts total for a Wide Flange Beam and a HSS column
Need a column cap plate with moment - (4) bolts each side - (8) bolts total for a Wide Flange Beam and a HSS column. And ability to add stiffeners for cap plate to column
RCnx - Base plate design - user defined stiffener placement
Ram connection has functions for define stiffener plates or channels on base plate, but in many cases it is required to design base plate with User defined Stiffeners. Users want to control stiffener size and number of stiffeners, also they want t...
