For years, engineers have been skeptical of design software. We call it the "Black Box" problem: you input geometry, hit a button, and the software spits out a result. But how did it get there? If you can't verify the math manually, can you trust the software? : While v17
Version 17.8.5 was a quiet revolution. It wasn't a flashy rewrite; it was an adapter . Its core innovation was a : For years, engineers have been skeptical of design software
: The software is built around the ACI 318-19 (and earlier versions), automatically applying the necessary strength reduction factors ( ) and minimum reinforcement ratios.
