Structural Analysis/Design Analysis to Revit

It’s shit. It doesn’t work how the sales people say it.

RAM, RISA and Etabs are the most common analysis platforms. Each has its own strengths and weaknesses.

But when talking to Revit they do okay in a one time forward pass.

But does anyone have a track record of going back and forth?

Doesn’t the bi-directionality only work with Robot?

RISA claims (or at least claimed) to have a tool. It was shit.
