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.
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:
If you have utilized Hold-Down's in RISA-3D, you have mostly likely noticed that a value of CD is reported for each selection in the database. However, it may not be clear how it is being used?
RISAFloor supports the use of flexible diaphragms on both flat and sloped roofs. Before reviewing the workflow for utilizing a flexible diaphragm on a sloped roof, it makes sense to review and understand the basic behavior of flexible diaphragms within RISAFloor. To do this, please first review the...
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...
RISAFloor v14 includes Steel Joist Vibration Analysis per SJI Technical Digest #5. For more information, check out the video below.
Strength Design (LRFD) according to the AWC-NDS 2015/2018 code has been implemented into RISAFloor v14.0. To select this code for your design, simply choose this code from the Codes tab within Global Model Settings.
RISAFloor v14 now includes floor vibration calculations per the 2nd Edition of AISC Design Guide #11. To select this code for your design, simply choose AISC DG 11 2nd Edition in the Beam Vibrations drop-down from the Codes tab within Global Model Settings.
RISAFloor is the RISA Building System’s floor design software which allows users to design with composite decks, elevated concrete slabs and more. When paired with RISA-3D, the two create a complete solution for the analysis and design of multi-story structures, including two buildings on the same...
