When designing concrete shear walls for lateral loading, RISA-3D includes design checks for both in-plane and out-of-plane shear. In the condition where a concrete wall is under both axial tension and out-of-plane shear, the out-of-plane shear limit state for a specific region within the concrete...
With many of us working from home, our support team wanted to be able to connect with our customers where they are: in front of their computers. With that in mind, we are excited to introduce RISA Live. These live sessions, will take place every Thursday at 2pm EST (11am PST) and will focus on...
In RISA-3D when drawing members you must start with initial sizes. After loading and load combinations are completed the model is solved and then member design must be done, making sure that members pass for both strength and serviceability considerations. For both strength and serviceability...
RISA-3D allows users to import dxf files directly from software like AutoCAD, Microstation and ArchiCAD. Upon import, the files can be used either as a dxf underlay, giving the user the ability to trace complex geometry in RISA-3D or as a direct import in order to convert members and plates into...
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.
Over the last few weeks, we have been working hard to add the features and functionality that our customers have requested as well fix some of the issues that have been reported. With that in mind, we have prepared a new update of RISA-3D (v18.0.3) that includes the following features as well as...
RISA-3D provides users a variety of solution options, allowing results to be catered to specific project needs. In many situations it is beneficial to be able to view both the envelope and batch results for a model without having to run two separate solutions. An example of this would be when you...
