EtabsMeshToRamConcept.zip
This software will transfer Etabs floor directly to RAM Concept. First to export etabs file to e2k format. Then use the exporter to export to GFCC format which can be imported to RAM Concept by File << SYNC STAAD << NEW GFCC file command. Please share your opinion of report me any bugs.
Hi Seth
First of all you don't have to export anything to SAFE. My code can directly transfer from e2k file. Therefore if you have 100 floors you can transfer all of them in one click. Also If you have element ID name with space my program can treat them correctly. I'm also adding more features like apply uniform loadsets to shell elements, export back the mesh to etabs, API connectivity so that information transfer to RAM directly from ETABS. Also my program runs fast compare to yours.
Impressive. I don't happen to have any e2k files handy in order to test it, but will when I can find one. Does it also require ETABS to be installed?
No you don't need etabs to be installed in your system. Me and some of my colleagues used it and found very good export. Let me know your experience
Hi Seth, do you know how to upload files in the "FILES" page. I saw many users uploaded the software directly there.
Thanks.
The Files area is restricted to Bentley colleagues. I can re-post your tool there after a round of testing if you like.
I would be happy you do the upload after testing.
