RAM Connection CONNECT Edition

RAM Connection is Bentley’s tool for steel connection design. It can be used as stand-alone or fully integrated with STAAD Pro, RAM Structural System, and RAM Elements. It has powerful connection check or design option in just a matter of seconds.

It is the first fully integrated steel connection design and optimization tool in the industry. It has the most widely covered connection database globally that supports most common global design codes such as the AISC (ASD and LRFD), Eurocode, British Standards and Indian Standards. A user can easily design, check, and optimize shear, moment, gusset, splice, bracket, and base plate connections.

IdeaStatica

IdeaStatica is another latest popular software for steel connection design where User can define the configurations, sections and more; totally in FEM environment.

Steel AutoDrafter

Steel AutoDrafter is a tool that extracts drawings and material take off from a structural steel model prepared in STAAD Pro. It produces plans at any level, and sections in any of the orthogonal directions. Once the members have been grouped and the frame completed, the model should be analyzed. Steel Autodrafter requires that the model be successfully run before it can import and be used as drafting model.

Note: This is Part-II, continuation of Part-I that deasl with the complete Analysis Design  of the same project so better please go through Part-I.
