RISA Connection supports a vast array of connection types, including: Choose your bolt grades, weld types, and plate dimensions

The 3D view isn't just for show; it serves as a critical "sanity check." It helps engineers spot clearance issues—like a bolt being too close to a flange—before the design ever reaches the fabrication shop. Getting Started: The Workflow Select your beam and column sizes.

Manual connection design for a complex project can take days. With RISA Connection’s ability to group similar connections and design them in batches, what used to take hours now takes minutes. Enhanced Visualization

As you adjust parameters—like bolt spacing or plate thickness—RISA Connection updates the design results in real-time. It provides a detailed breakdown of every limit state check (e.g., bolt shear, block shear, plate yielding), allowing you to pinpoint exactly why a connection might be failing. 4. Seismic Design
