ADAPT,
New Release,
New
ADAPT-Builder
Version
22.0.2
is
now
available
and
includes
the
following
enhancements:
Added
wall
design
per
ACI
318-19
code.
Improved
the
Wall
Design
Manager
to
only
consider
strength
combinations.
Added
option
to
automatically
update
wall
section
reinforcement
when
designing
walls.
Implemented
a
new
Feedback
button
that
allows
the
user
to
request
improvements
to
the
software.
Improved
ADAPT
Wall
Design
Manager
In
ADAPT-Builder
v22.0.2
the
integrated
wall
design
capabilities
of
the
ADAPT
Wall
Designer
have
been
improved
to
include
the
implementation
of
the
ACI-318-19
design
code.
The
design
of
concrete
shear
walls
can
be
done
with
or
without
special
boundary
elements
for
seismic
lateral
resisting
systems.
The
user
has
the
option
to
perform
a
Code
Check
or
a
Design
of
shear
walls
within
an
ADAPT-Builder
model.
A
code
check
allows
the
user
to
define
the
reinforcement
within
the
wall
and
the
program
will
check
whether
the
assigned
reinforcement
satisfies
code
provisions
for
minimum
reinforcement,
bending,
and
shear
capacity.
If
a
user
chooses
to
Design
the
walls,
the
program
will
iteratively
design
the
reinforcement
for
the
walls
within
the
user-defined
design
constraints
to
satisfy
code
provisions.
Codes:
The
ADAPT
Wall
Designer
has
been
implemented
for
ACI-318-19
and
ACI-318-11
design
codes.
