Does anyone else think that when a company says they have incorporated a new design code into their software, they should probably update their code references at that time? Seem reasonable to anyone else? Instead, Bentley still references the 2005 seismic specs when either 2010 or 2016 specs are selected. And baselate anchorage calcs have yet to offer ACI 318-14 as an option even. It is almost 2019....
I see this was logged by another user. Reference Enhancement 858118: Add ACI 318-14 code option for base plates (and code references)
Any action on this?
Don't hold your breath... This is the same company that still has to have a workaround for checking roof live load and snow load on the same building in RSS, still can't handle wind uplift in RSS, and still only has an option for 2005 NDS for wood design in Elements. ACI 318-19 is already out, so they're an entire development cycle behind now, but my state updates every other code cycle, so we're just now moving up to IBC 2018 and will still need to use ACI 318-14 until we adopt the 2024 code in 2025 probably. So it would be nice if the references were at least up-to-date for when we do have to submit calcs on projects.
