The new ACI 318-19 code has been implemented into RISA-3D v19, RISAFloor v15, and RISAFoundation v13. One of the biggest changes between the ACI 318-14 code and the ACI 318-19 code is the shear contribution provided by the concrete, Vc.
Recent tests and analytical results for concrete columns have indicated that considering shear along each centroidal axis independently can be unconservative. Therefore current versions of RISA-3D, RISAFloor and RISAFoundation have included the consideration for the interaction of shear forces...
Watch the recording of our webinar to learn how new versions of RISA-3D, RISAFloor, RISAFoundation and RISAConnection provide users with expanded design capabilities, improved product integration and new features including:
In this video, we’ll take a look at the modeling and analysis of a mat slab in RISAFoundation. We’ll specify design parameters and soil properties to be able to obtain reinforcement design and view soil pressure contour diagrams.
Did you know that your can now attend the RISA Steel Building Workshop and earn 4 PDH's without leaving your house?! All five sessions from the live event are now available to view (for FREE) and can be found at the website listed below. For engineers who wish to obtain the PDH (Professional...
Last week, RISA held its final Steel Building Workshop at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, CA. The Steel Building Workshop series, spanned 7 cities over the past year and gave engineers a first hand look at how the RISA Building System can be used to design a real world project from start...
RISAFoundation v12 includes mat slab, concrete beam and pedestal design according to Eurocode 2. For more information, check out the video below.
RISAFoundation has the ability to create a single layer of reinforcement anywhere in a slab. This improvement allows for a more straightforward design of thin, lightly loaded slab-on-grade where two layers of reinforcement (top/bottom) would be unnecessary. In order to add a single layer of...
RISAFoundation includes the ability to utilize “nested” load combinations. Currently, the Load Combinations spreadsheet in RISAFoundation is limited to ten columns of Basic Load Cases (BLCs) and Factor combinations. However, there are times where you may need to include additional entries to your...
