RISAFloor column results are available in the results spreadsheets, but you may not be aware that you can also graphically review the input and results of columns. To do this you need to customize your toolbar, which is an option available in the Tools menu:
There are many different types deflection values calculated by RISA-3D. Let’s take a deeper dive into each.
RISA-3D v16.0.4 introduces an enhancement that will allow for more control over the beam deflection ratio through Deflection Ratio Options. As part of the member properties, you can now designate the ends of single and multi-span beams as a cantilever or supported. This will determine whether the...
RISAFloor does not record the applied deck in a spreadsheet. To simplify modeling, it instead assumes a default deck is drawn within the entire diaphragm edge. If you have an area that will be a different deck or a different span direction, then you are free to draw in over the default. Whatever is...
RISA-3D now includes improved behavior of the automesh feature as well as the newly added global model setting for Plate Local Axis. The new plate local axis options include both Nodal and Global. These options allow for more control over plates which can lead to clearer results in plate contour...
Concrete pile design is now incorporated in the pile cap results in RISAFoundation. With the addition of axial pile design in RISAFoundation v10.0, the program can model concrete pile shapes and design the reinforcement, or the user can also apply their own custom rebar layout. Now you can get a...
RISA is pleased to announce the release of the latest RISA-Revit Link which is compatible with Revit 2020. The RISA-Revit Link v19.0 allows seamless integration between RISAFloor, RISA-3D, and Autodesk Revit. The latest version now includes the ability to import beam reinforcement details from...
RISA-3D v16 now includes the added ability to view foundations designed in RISAFoundation. This feature proves useful as it gives a way for engineers to see if foundations have been sized appropriately for the loading from RISA-3D. For more information about how foundations can be shown in RISA-3D,...
Update: July 2022 The issues with Windows 10 (Version 1803) have been solved. However, for customers still using older versions of RISA products, the workaround using compatibility mode described below may still be useful.
