However, the design has been updated to catch and warm ‘engineers who might inadvertently attempt to design members that have significant end moments and thus this classic=faction and design method is not appropriate.

In this release, the key module that underlies the digital twin creation offered by Bentley, iTwin Services has been updated to v2.2. This includes a more consistent settings layout. Suggestions in the iModel field as a name is entered. An improved testing of data to provide feedback on the validity of the data before attempting to create an invalid model. The most significant update though is that if story data is defined in a physical model, that is, passed to the ISM repository which means that the model can be used with RAM Concept for the design of floors. hitps:communities. bentley. comiproducsiram-staadlb/analysis_and._design_blogipostsinew-eloase-—staac-pro-connact-edilon-v22-update-t2 214412114122, 10:41PM —_ New Release - STAAD.Pro CONNECT Eilon V22 Update 12 -RAM | STAAD | ADINA Blog - RAM | STAAD | ADINA- Bentley Beam/Plate Connectivity Check Performance Improvement When large models are created through various interop services, it may make sense to validate that the analytical objects have suitable connectivity to the rest of the model. This led to the provision of a number of small tools in the Utiliies>Geometry Tools> Model Tools. However, for large models of tens of thousands of plates and beams, the time taken to test each plate and beam could take a significant amount of time. By refactoring the underlying functions, a significant performance boost has been achieved which can dramatically reduce the time taken to perform these tests. Update Steel Connection Design Models designed with steel members, their profiles checked in STAAD.Pro, the validation of providing a suitable connection to the rest of the model also needs to be performed. RAM Connection does an excellent job of providing this as a standalone solution, However, this capability can be utilised STAD. Pro by using the Steel Connection Design Workflow. In this release, the RAM Connection module that is contained in STAAD.Pro has been upgraded to version v13.8 which adds additional capabilities including:- ‘Support for all brace/branch shapes for EN1993 connections for bracing and truss connections. + Anew directly bolted coped web brace to gusset plate New directly welded gusset connections Extended range of conditions for vertical brace connections. hitps:communities. bentley. comiproducsiram-staadlb/analysis_and._design_blogipostsinew-eloase-—staac-pro-connact-edilon-v22-update-t2 aia12114122, 1041 PM —_ New Release - STAAD.Pro CONNECT Eilon V22 Update 12 - RAM | STAD |ADINA Blog - RAM | STAAD | ADINA- Bentley For more details on the provisions added in RAM Connection v13.8 see RAM Connection CONNECT Edition V13 Update 8 (v13.8.0) Release Notes - RAM | STAAD | ADINA Wiki - RAM | STAAD | ADINA - Bentley Communities Refactored Cloud analysis (Technical Preview) There is a growing movement to make better use of web-based servers that offer options to offioad analysis tasks and allow the desktop to be used for other work. This service has been provided by Bentley using a Scenario Services facility. Engineers who chose to make use of the CONNECT Project, association, could use this service with a web interface to upload models, initiate analyses and then compare results. With STAAD.Pro, , engineers were offered an opportunity to associate models directly in the interface with the tools to upload their model and run the analysis directly. This service however is being deprecated, but the ability to perform the cloud analysis has not. In fact it has been simplified, Models no longer have to be associated with CONNECT Projects. ‘Any model can be used to perform an analysis and using any one of a range of previously released analysis engines. That means it is possible to use this to take any current model and confirm the behaviour that would have been reported in an earlier release. At this time however the service is being offered as Technical Preview only and Bentley does reserve the right to terminate the offering at any time. hitps:communities. bentley. comiproducsiram-staadlb/analysis_and._design_blogipostsinew-eloase-—staac-pro-connact-edilon-v22-update-t2 4
