It's now 2024, many if not all of the requests in this forum have been open requests for YEARS and in some cases over a DECADE. Why is this program not being updated other than for new code requirements? Wind uplift still has not been implemented ...
RAM SS- Axial Design Check for Braced Frame/Collector Beams
Adding an axial design check for beams or collectors to a braced frame lateral frame system. In particularly for rigid diaphragms these forces are not applied to horizontal members and require separate hand checks or analysis in another program. T...
Import DWG drawings to be used as a reference layout in RSS, similar to what you do in Ram Concept.
When you are defining a floor in RSS, it would be very useful to be able to import drawings in DWG formats to be used as a template or reference file to define the floor data. You can do this in Ram Concept.; why not in RSS?
Generation of Wind Load for non-regular building shapes (e.g., C, L, and U shaped floor plates)
We don't see many rectangular structures these days. Would be great if RAM Frame could generate wind loads for non-regular building shapes (e.g., "C", "L", & "U" shaped floor plates). This would be a time-saver having not to hand calculate and...

The idea is to have the option to include lateral loads on walls at RAM Structural system.
There are a lot of projects with underground floors (garage) that have concrete walls to retain the earth around it
