Resolved Issues:
Issue Found in License Service Library: We’ve identified a problem in license service library in 2025 version that may cause licensing issues during use as RAM Elements may stop communicating correctly with the licensing system, potentially leading to unexpected behavior failing to recognize your license or becoming unresponsive. This issue has been resolved in this update.
Fail When Importing Models with SSI Results: RAM Elements was failing to import models results from PLAXIS for the Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI) due to a memory mismatch interface. The issue was resolved by updating the API for proper memory handling. (1672023)
User Database Files Not Imported During Upgrade: When updating to RAM Elements 2025 or RAM Connection 2025, user-defined databases were not automatically migrated to the new program directory, and the manual import tool was referencing an outdated version. The fix enables the software to detect existing installations and prompt users to import data from earlier versions during installation. (1677550)
Tilt-Up Module Crashes Intermittently with FEM Analysis: The Tilt-Up Wall design module crashed intermittently when switching from Simplified to FEM analysis and executing commands such as Check, Optimize, or Report, due to unsafe memory operation. This update solved the memory issue avoiding memory access violations. (1678177)
Masonry Wall Module Net Shear Area in Shear Wall Design: In shear wall design checks, the net shear area was conservatively considering the depth instead of the wall length due to outdated logic based on pre-TMS 402-16 provisions. The fix updated the calculation to correctly reflect current code requirements using the wall length, ensuring accurate shear design. (1681012)
Design Status Freezing When Selecting Connections: The application became unresponsive when selecting members and connections in "Show Design Status" mode due to unnecessary invalidation of the full design state when adjusting load case filters. The issue was fixed by limiting the invalidation logic to only the affected load conditions, restoring responsiveness. (1683706)
