The release of the RISA-Tekla Link v13 introduces compatibility with Tekla Structures v2023. This update of the link also provides additional information and notification when unsupported members are integrated.
Do you need to include effective length, le, per NDS Table 3.3.3 for your wood design? Yes? While RISA-3D does not automatically follow this le procedure per NDS Table 3.3.3, you as the engineer can input these values once you have them calculated. Inputting the effective length value in RISA-3D...
Why is the Buckling-Restrained Brace(BRB) not showing in your database dropdown selection? Is your model in RISA-3D only? Did you detach your RISAFloor model from RISA-3D? Yes? Once your model is detached or independent from RISAFloor, your model is no longer a building only model. Thus your...
When using the Distance tool in RISA-3D, the program outputs Rxz, Rzy, Ryz. These angles represent the angle the Distance Tool line makes with respect to the each respective plane. Rxy represents the angle the distance line makes with respect to the XY plane.
RISA-3D, RISAFloor and RISAFoundation now include support for IBC 2021!
With the addition of Filter Elements by Property option in RISA-3D v21, the printed reports have been improved. In previous versions, you had to filter each report section. Now you’ll find the Report spreadsheets can be filter in one location for the printed report. The Filter Elements by Property...
