RISA-3D includes the ability to design steel structures for seismic provisions found in AISC 341 and AISC 358 including moment frames and braced frames. For more information, review the video below.
Connection design according to the new AISC 360-16 (15th Ed.) Steel Manual has now been implemented in RISAConnection. To select this code for your design, simply choose either LRFD or ASD from the Solution tab within the Global Project Settings. The addition of the new 15th Edition code, includes...
The most recent release of AISC 360-16 (15th Edition) includes changes to connection design for rectangular HSS shapes with applied concentrated forces. These changes are now included in RISAConnection v10.
The release of RISAConnection v10 incorporates updates according to AISC 360-16 (15th Edition) including changes to HSS provisions as well as improved design for column webs subject to out-of-plane loading, in addition to other enhancements.
Modeling tapered gusset plates in RISAConnection is now easier than ever. With the recent addition of the Custom Angle input, you may now enter an angle to quickly cut back a gusset edge.
Eurocode lateral torsional buckling capacity is calculated per equations in Annex F in the ENV 1993-1-1:1992. This calculation uses variables C1, C2 and C3. Since there is no generic formula in the Eurocode to calculate the moment gradient factor, C1, RISA will use the widely accepted López, Yong...
