EXTON, PA, May 1, 2008 – Bentley Systems, Incorporated today announced that Harley Ellis Devereaux, a leading architectural, engineering, and planning firm with more than 500 employees in five offices, has selected Bentley’s RAM Concept application to help design the concrete structural elements of its 13-story Eastgate Village senior residence project in Chicago. RAM Concept is finite-element-based analysis and design software for reinforced and post-tensioned concrete slabs and mats that allows users to more accurately and efficiently design complex floors. The Harley Ellis Devereaux project team is already using Bentley’s RAM Structural System on this project to create the 3D model, perform gravity and lateral stress analysis, and to design the beams, shear walls, and columns. Because RAM Concept is fully integrated with RAM Structural System, the team will be able to cost-effectively complete the design of the flat slab while meeting the project’s challenging delivery schedule.

In addition to RAM Concept and RAM Structural System, Harley Ellis Devereaux uses RAM Connection for its structural Building Information Modeling (BIM) needs. RAM Connection is an integrated steel connection design and optimization tool for shear, moment, and brace connections.

“Our firm has relied on the Bentley RAM product family for more than 10 years to enhance our productivity within our structural discipline and facilitate collaboration among our multidiscipline project teams,” said Don Giroux, Harley Ellis Devereaux chief operating officer. “Without question, these benefits have contributed significantly to improving the quality of our projects and reducing problems during the construction phase of a project.”

Said Jim Corsiglia, a senior structural engineer and principal with Harley Ellis Devereaux, “By adding Bentley’s integrated concrete solution to our tool set, we are able to more efficiently complete the design of an entire building all the way down to the foundation. In the past, we would have had to manually transfer loads from one application to another, creating the potential for errors and consequent tedious, time-consuming changes. However, because Bentley’s concrete tools interoperate with all of our other RAM applications, we now spend less time correcting errors and more time being innovative and productive in our design work.”
