New features are now available in the recent release of RISACore (RISA-3D v22.0, RISAFloor v18.0, and RISAFoundation v16.0) . We are working hard to add the features and functionality that our customers have requested as soon as they become available. With that in mind, we have prepared a new...
In RISAFoundation, the Allowable Soil Bearing value is controlled by the Soil Region. This value is always taken as a Gross allowable soil pressure by default.
Elevate your outputs using the recently enhanced Tendon and Rebar Display Managers in ADAPT-Builder (23.0.0). ADAPT-Builder (23.0.0) gives users more control over the appearance of tendons and reinforcement thus saving time when it comes to creating tendon and reinforcement plans for submittals.
The latest release of ADAPT-Builder (23.0.0) includes the ability to design one-way slabs and beams for the effects of torsion. Through the shear design options of the criteria window the user can choose to check the torsional threshold only or, where the threshold is exceeded, design for the...
RISAFloor ES allows users to analyze Long Term Deflection for Concrete Floor Slabs using "User Defined" as the design method. For more information on how to model Long Term Deflection in RISAFloor ES, follow our other article link below. In this article, you'll learn how to: Understand Deflection...
The latest release of ADAPT-Builder (22.0.1) includes an integrated concrete column code check feature that allows users to easily check concrete columns for code compliance. Utilizing the ACI 318-19 or ACI 318-14 design code, the code check feature will perform capacity checks for bending, axial,...
RISAFloor ES and RISAFoundation now include the ability to assign and design concrete elevated slab and foundation elements with welded wire reinforcement. To learn more, view the video below.
Consideration of Drop Caps and Drop Panels for Two-Way Punching Shear Design ADAPT-PTRC now checks two-way shear for columns at critical sections within the drop cap, drop panel, and slab. This feature is available for all codes.
The CSA A23.3-14 Concrete Design Code has been implemented into RISA-3D v20 and RISAFloor v16 for concrete wall panels. These walls can be designated and designed as either gravity only or lateral elements in RISAFloor when designing a complete building utilizing concrete walls. Prior to this...
