INTEGRATED DESIGN OF SLABS, MATS AND FOOTINGS

LEARN ABOUT THE NEW FEATURES
IN THE LATEST RELEASE

overview

NOW YOU CAN UPGRADE TO THE NEW VERSION OF THE TOP PROGRAM

From framing layout to detail drawing production, SAFE integrates every aspect of the engineering design process in one easy and intuitive environment.



SAFE provides unmatched productivity to the engineer with its truly unique combination of power, comprehensive capabilities, and ease-of-use.



Slabs or foundations can be of any shape, and can include edges shaped with circular and spline curves.

Overview

Post-tensioning may be included in both slabs and beams to balance a percentage of the self-weight. Suspended slabs can include flat, two-way, waffle, and ribbed framing systems. Models can have columns, braces, walls, and ramps connected from the floors above and below. Walls can be modeled as either straight or curved.

BIM Compatible

Increase your efficiency with bi-directional links to the industry leading BIM products.

International Design Codes

Whether the project is local or overseas, design codes from around the globe are available for steel, concrete, aluminum and cold form design codes.

Elasto-Plastic Behavior

Option to model elasto-plastic behavior for point, line and area (soil) springs now available.

Area Springs

Precedence now given to area springs applied through area objects with null properties. This allows spring properties to be overwritten over portions of large slab areas by using areas with null properties.

Modulus of Rupture for Cracked Deflection

Modulus of rupture for cracked deflection calculations can now be overwriten separately for each concrete material property. Previously a single overwrite applied to all concrete materials.

Tendons

Tendon vertical profile form redesigned for easy input and editing as the data for all spans of the tendon are now visible and editable at the same time.
