RAM Elements CONNECT Edition v16.04.00.187 Release
Notes – Updated June 2021
Enhancements:
1. Update concrete design to ACI 318-19. The concrete design was updated to the latest ACI 318-19 design code for all concrete design modules in standalone and integrated mode.
Figure 1. New ACI 318-19 design code in Footing Design module.
2. iTwin Services - Synchronizer. Allows users to synchronize their work to their Sync Model. The Sync Model could be either a local ISM repository (*.ism.dgn) with all the same functionality or to a Federated Cloud-based repository (iModel). For more details please read iTwin Services for Engineering Analysis.

Resolved Issues:
- AISC 360-16 critical strength ratio differences when displaying results and for reports were fixed.
- For HDPI monitors, there was a glitch in the context menu that was causing the window to grow each time was opened. This is fixed now and the menu is show properly regardless of the monitor scaling settings.
- Tilt-Up Design module, Pu value for out of plane flexure checks is considered now at maximum deflection location for boundary cases not considered in ACI design code.
- Model with several (more than 1000 load conditions) where taking long time to visualize analysis results due to a glitch in the load conditions combo box. This was corrected and now results are shown without any lag.
- Area loads where corrected for very small pressure values that were not being properly distributed due to tolerances.
