RAM Elements 2026 (26.00.01) Release Notes – June 2026
This release addresses critical and high-priority issues identified in RAM Elements 2026.

Resolved Issues:

1. Improved iTwin Analytical Synchronizer Startup Performance and Stability. Some users experienced longer application startup and model loading times due to changes introduced in the initialization process of the iTwin Services. Under certain environments, the new implementation could increase the time required to initialize synchronization components and, in some cases, contribute to application instability or unexpected crashes during startup. The initialization workflow has been revised to restore the previous implementation, improving startup and model loading performance while enhancing application stability for iTwin Services workflows.

2. Area Load Generation Error in iTwin Analytical Synchronizer Models. Some models synchronized using the iTwin Analytical Synchronizer could display the error “List index out of bounds” when creating or modifying area loads. This issue was related to the distributed load storage enhancements introduced in RAM Elements 2026, where load identifiers could become inconsistent under specific synchronization scenarios. The distributed load synchronization process has been updated to correctly validate and manage load identifiers, allowing area loads to be generated and modified without errors in affected models.

3. Distributed Loads Missing from Load Data Reports. In some cases, distributed member loads were not displayed in the Load Data Report due to issues related to the new distributed load storage scheme introduced in RAM Elements 2026. The reporting process has been updated to correctly display distributed member loads in the generated reports. (2079034)

4. Unit Conversion Consistency in Design Modules. In some cases, Footing Design, Concrete Wall Design, and Masonry Design modules could display incorrect input values when the global unit system and visualization unit system were not synchronized. Values entered using one unit system could be incorrectly converted and displayed, resulting in unexpected values in the input fields. The unit conversion process has been updated to correctly handle unit transformations regardless of the selected global or visualization unit systems, ensuring that input values are displayed and processed as expected.
