Welcome to today's Interactive LEARN Session. This is an opportunity for engineers to interact and get their technical questions answered. Bentley's structural software provides engineers with a 'workhorse' for getting through the maze of building code and material specification requirements. This requires us to have a familiarity with those codes, and today's interaction gives you an opportunity for us to share with you what we know, and at the same time help you to understand what the programs are doing. Do you have any questions about diaphragms: rigid, semirigid, flexible, what the codes require and how to model them? Or wind and seismic drift requirements?
We are also excited to announce that the latest version of the RAM Structural System, version 14.07, is scheduled to be released on Thursday, February 26. I have posted the Release Notes for that version here:

If you want to know more about that version, or if you have any questions about the RAM Structural System, post your questions I will give you some answers!
