We are pleased to announce the release of RCDC (STAAD Advanced Concrete Design / SACD) version 2023 (23.00.03.63).
This release mainly consists of implementation of minor enhancement and priority bugs. The following are some of the minor enhancements added to RCDC V23.00.03,
1. Calculation of Curvature ductility factor used for the Ductile Columns of Euro codes.
RCDC is now providing following two options to consider the curvature ductility factor.
• Compute curvature ductility factor based on the various inputs available in the program.
• User defined curvature ductility factor.
2. Projection (offset) of pile cap from edge of pile - The maximum permissible offset value has been now increased so that user can provide the higher values.
3. Pile capacity values (compression, Tension and shear) are allowed to provide up to two decimals in RCDC so that user can provide more accurate pile capacities for the pile cap design.
To find out more about these features and other enhancements, please refer to the attached release notes.
