Retaining wall analysis & design (ACI318/TMS/MSJC)
Tilt-up wall panel design (ACI318)
Enhanced in accordance with ACI318 2019.
Anchor bolt design (ACI318)
Column base plate design (AISC360)
Enhanced to include a new screw anchor type: A post-installed threaded, mechanical anchor inserted into hardened concrete that transfers loads to the concrete by engagement of the hardened threads of the screw with the grooves that the threads cut into the sidewall of a predrilled hole during anchor installation.
Column base plate design (AISC360)
Enhanced to include new provisions for shear lug design to ACI318. The design of attachments with shear lugs includes a bearing strength in shear check and a Concrete breakout strength check of the shear lug.
Other updates
Anchor bolt design (ACI318)
[TEDDS-950]1 - Corrected clause reference for "Anchors are located at least 1.5h_ef from the edges. Therefore the effective embedded depth has to be limited to 4.00" to 17.4.2.3 for 2014 and 17.6.2.1.2 for 2019.
2D analysis (and all design calculations which use this calculation)
[TEDDS-4100]1 - Increased the precision of the deflection results for US units to 3 decimal places.
[TEDDS-4866]1 - Amended material for default US Timber model so that density is not an editable material source property to ensure consistency with materials defined in the user interface.
Refactored all default geometry models to ensure source data never contains embedded newline characters.
2D analysis - Truss wizard (and all design calculations which use this calculation)
[TEDDS-4914]1 - Optimised model creation to ensure that sections which are not used in the specified truss configuration are not included in the analysis model.
[TEDDS-4913]1 - When choosing the material as US Wood or Glulam automatically calculate the density value rather than requiring the user to enter a value manually in the 2D analysis user interface.
[TEDDS-4913]1 - When choosing the material as US Wood use "E" rather than "E_{true}" for the Youngs modulus.
[TEDDS-4913]1 - When choosing the material as US Glulam use "E_{x}" rather than "E_{xtrue}" for NDS 2005, 2012 and 2015.
2D analysis - Frame wizard (and all design calculations which use this calculation)
[TEDDS-4913]1 - When choosing the material as US Wood or Glulam automatically calculate the density value rather than requiring the user to enter a value manually in the 2D analysis user interface.
[TEDDS-4913]1 - When choosing the material as US Wood use "E" rather than "E_{true}" for the Youngs modulus.
[TEDDS-4913]1 - When choosing the material as US Glulam use "E_{x}" rather than "E_{xtrue}" for NDS 2005, 2012 and 2015.
Footing analysis & design (ACI318)
[TEDDS-4360]1 - Fixed defect giving slightly un-conservative results for footings designed for bearing a specified net allowable bearing pressure.
[TEDDS-1123]1 - Fixed defect causing two-way shear design preview to show a failure when design was passing.
[TEDDS-450]1 - Fixed undefined variable '_InvalidBearingMessage' message.
Fixed bug that disabled option to define custom lightweight concrete modification factor.
RC column design (ACI318)
[TEDDS-4293]1 - Fixed discrepancy between max no. bars for circular columns in the Notes and the calculation
[TEDDS-4495]1 - Fixed divided by zero error when switching between uniaxial and biaxial bending in the UI.
[TEDDS-188]1 - Fixed incorrect bar spacing in output statement.
RC one way slab design (ACI318)
