RISA-3D has two ways of automatically generating seismic-related Basic Load Categories (BLCs) which can be later referenced in the Load Combinations (LCs):
Connection design according to the new AISC 360-16 (15th Ed.) Steel Manual has now been implemented in RISAConnection. To select this code for your design, simply choose either LRFD or ASD from the Solution tab within the Global Project Settings. The addition of the new 15th Edition code, includes...
The most recent release of AISC 360-16 (15th Edition) includes changes to connection design for rectangular HSS shapes with applied concentrated forces. These changes are now included in RISAConnection v10.
The release of RISAConnection v10 incorporates updates according to AISC 360-16 (15th Edition) including changes to HSS provisions as well as improved design for column webs subject to out-of-plane loading, in addition to other enhancements.
The AISC 360-16 (15th edition) has added a new section (see page 9-14 through 9-17) that gives direction on how to check the out-of-plane loading on the webs of wide flange columns which are subject to axial and/or bending loads. This applies to shear tabs, double angles and gusset plates attached...
RISAFloor is the RISA Building System’s floor design software which allows users to design with composite decks, elevated concrete slabs and more. When paired with RISA-3D, the two create a complete solution for the analysis and design of multi-story structures, including two buildings on the same...
RISA-3D is one of the few pieces of software on the market offering wood shear wall analysis and design accompanied by multiple design methods to best suit your detailing needs.
