Etabs to RAM Connection

[Saedhalteh]

hello all!
Can we export data(forces and analysis results) directly from Etabs to RAM Connection as we can from STAAD to RAM connection ?

Yes, there is an Etabs to Ram link available for download on CSI website. I remember having to export Etabs floor to Safe which generates a CSI .f2k file, then this file is converted to Bently .gcff file, which is just XML file that can be imported into Ram Concept.

I find Bentley have always been very restrictive with text file imports and API's which I find to be annoying.

Let me know how you go if it is still available for download on CSI website, otherwise I'll send you thru a copy when back at work. I think it's open source and allowed to be distributed.
