Is it possible to implement the Turkish code DBYBHY-2007 to Robot?             Show More

This software is awesome. I want to highlight some features which are missing in this software. As I am form India, I frequently require to analyse the structure for equivalent lateral force method as per IS 1893:2002 whichis not present i this software. Other softwares such as Etabs and Staad have already this feature. 1. Also many softwares including robot have not readymade staircase modeling feature which is very important. I know that there are many ways to simulate the stairecase conditions but those are complex. Many stairecases such as slabless stepped staircase, circular staircase, etc are very difficult to model and hence I thing that it will be a unique feature of robot if developers provide this feature in it. I am asking this because staircase modeling in revit is very easy because it has that feature then why robot doesnt have. 2. The detailing of members is very much good but in my opinion there is a large scope to improve the software in this section. Because in the India the drawings are not represented in the way that robot represents. The drawings which are sent to the contractor are in different layout. In detailing, documentation and design sections S-Cube RCDC is much ahead in India and many structural firms are using this software. This is the major reason for diversion of engineers in India to staad and etabs because the analysis files can be imported in RCDC. RCDC gives much quality represenation of drawings and documentation consolidately and hence this is my request to the Autodesk that please bring some simplicity in these sections or bring separate module for design, detailing and documentaion. Thank you and sorry for bad english. Show More

Bonjour,             il est plus que temps que la fonction de reduction des charges d'exploitation soit inclus dans le module de DDC de RSA, comme c'est le cas pour Revit, cela éviterait à l'utilisateur de Robot qui n'a pas Revit par exemple de n'avoir pas à faire à chque fois un chiffrier de calcul de DDC en parallele qui lui inclut la fonction de reduction des charges vives.   De plus si le module present dans Revit structure, fonctionne pour IBS/ASCE et l'eurocode 1, lla fonction de reduction des charges vives ppur la norme Candadienne CNBC 2005 ou à present CNBC 2010 n'est pas presente. Cette solution est presente d'ailleurs chez la concurence à travers des logiciels comme ETABS 2013 pour les differents codes, et je crois chez Graitec egalement pour l'eurocode 2 et le BAEL.   À moins de rendre les modules developpés pour Revit Structure fonctionnels pour RSA, il faudra penser à Rendre Robot autonome avec ces fonctions en dehors de Revit   Merci   Show More

I`d wish that Robots modeling interface would be much more like Revit. To  create the geometry you want in Robot is not as easy as in Revit. Show More

Hi It will be nice if a warning is displayed once the load display is ON and the user types in new range of loads/combinations in the box. The warning could warn the user that it "might take a long time to display all the loads together graphically."   Maybe I am the only one, but i have managed to crash my system more than a few times by not realising that i have the loads display set to ON and then typed in a range of 500 combinations in the load/combination sleection box. :-).   As a side note, making the "escape" key  more reliable to abort any/all activities being carried by robot could also be a solution for situations when things are typed without realising the consequences. Thanks   Regards       Show More

In RC buildings design ,   1- it will be great if there are options for RC columns ( column with head or with out head) as in flat slabs . 2- Options for selection slab types ,( waffle slabs , ribbed slabs , etc ) Show More

It would be great if we could apply partial elastic surface support to a panel by using a contour.  There are many cases when dealing with concrete slab on grade design to have the ability to either vary the subgrade modulus over an area.  When doing P.T. slab on grade design, one needs to only have a portion of the slab supported, thus the current surface support will not work.  As far as implementation, being able to draw this in as a surface load on a contour would be great.  For a variable modulus, one could use the 3 point contour.

It would be very convinient if a Autodesk could create a AutoCAD 3D plug in that would allow users to actively create/change geometry in ROBOT !!   That would eliminate alot of meshing and other errors and create a whole new range of possibilities that could make the process more streamlined!   Please contact me if you want me to elaborate on this idea!   Thanks   Kyp Show More

General: 1) Improvement in general acceleration when creating/viewing a model/ when changing loads etc. 2) Solver improvement - multhithreaded solvers (all)   Geometry: 1) It would be great if we could identify in a 2D model type of linear support (added to panel edge).for e.g. whether it is a concrete wall or masonry wall. Right now it's not possible. 2) Would be excellent if you could put all the add-ins from forum into ARSA 3) More advanced "Phase mode" 4) Option like: Cut panel by/to other panel   Analysis: 1) Differential shortening of columns in tall buildings (at least steel one's) calculation   Design: 1) Composite structures design 2) Steelwork design - more types of connections for steel elements   Show More

I guess it must not matter to most people since I don't see it in the wish list already but...   It is a little unsettling to see nonstandard english language and terminology, like "Bar" for beam. In the western hemisphere at least, a steel "bar" is a deformed steel rod used in concrete reinforcement. Seeing "bar" makes me wonder how many other aspects of Robot maybe don't match up to US codes and literature. Just sayin...   Thanks Show More

I love all Autodesk products than CSI Berkeley's ....but if robot or revit has the ability to design (RC &steel & timber ....etc) according to user defined parameters (local country code) not only materials that will be extremely usefull and serve a wide range of engineers around the world Show More
