RISA-3D has the capability to automatically generate seismic loads and wind loads per ASCE 7 as well as a variety of international codes.

Wind loads can be automatically are generated in RISA-3D for building models. RISA calculates the ASCE 7 Main Wind-Force Resisting System loads and calculations are based on the Analytical Procedure for Enclosed Rigid Building for All Heights.

RISAFloor has the ability to apply tapered snow loads on your building’s roof to simulate drift snow loads.

RISAFloor uses the Area Load Definitions spreadsheet to define area loads available for use on a floor.

One of the most overlooked design criteria for commercial buildings is the tendency of the floor system to bounce or vibrate due to human footfalls. Fortunately, RISAFloor has the ability to check the floor system’s performance.
