RAM Structural System Version 11.0 provides the following additional enhancements:.
* Multiple Diaphragms - This feature allows structural engineers to model, analyse, and design structures that have any number of independent complete slab edges on a single story.
* Load Generators - Automatic wind and seismic load generators have been enhanced for multiple diaphragm models.
* Wind Exposure Report - New report displays the exposed area used by the program when automatically generating the wind forces.
* CAN/CISC S16-01 - Latest Canadian steel design code has been added, including "Supplement #1 (S16S1-05)".
"New steel grades and load combinations".
* Self-Mass - New option provides automatic calculation of mass from beams, columns, and slab/decks if requested.
Wall mass has been enhanced to give option to either split mass of walls between levels (half up and half down) or to apply all of the wall mass to the story above.
Wall mass has also been enhanced to consider the slope of the walls (by using the average height rather than merely using the story height).
* Steel Table Editor - New interactive program can be used to edit or create steel master, beam, or column tables.
