Anyone using RAM, RM Bridge and RISA?
(OP)
I have been looking to adopt one of the following Structural Analysis & Design software but can't seem to find their pricing. The company I work for deals with Buildings, Bridges and Highway structures.
RAM Structural System
RM Bridge
RISA/RISA3D
I understand Bentley has a Professional Passport subscription for Structural Engineers that includes RAM, but I can't get them to reply to inquiries.
Does anyone know the purchase or subscription prices for above applications? Extra comments on your experience using them will be appreciated.

RE: Anyone using RAM, RM Bridge and RISA?
I suggest you pay for the training when Bentley offers it. The user manuals are not great - they are translations of the original German documents. However the customer support has been prompt and helpful. I did not get the training (not my choice), and it took some time and a lot of customer support to get up and running. The program incorporates a variety of design codes, but the AASHTO portions seem to have been added as an afterthought. I have not attempted to use it to perform code checks - I've just been using it to perform PT analysis. I can't really speak for all of its capabilities. I only figured out how to run the particular type of structure I was working on.
