INTEGRATED DESIGN OF SLABS, MATS AND FOOTINGS

SAFE is the ultimate tool for designing concrete floor and foundation systems. From framing layout all the way through to detail drawing production, SAFE integrates every aspect of the engineering design process in one easy and intuitive environment. SAFE provides unmatched benefits to the engineer with its truly unique combination of power, comprehensive capabilities, and ease-of-use. SAFE couples powerful object-based modelling tools with an intuitive graphical interface, allowing the quick and efficient modelling of slabs of regular or arbitrary geometry with openings, drop panels, post-tensioning, ribs, edge beams, and slip joints, supported by columns, walls, or soil. Design is seamlessly integrated with the modelling and analysis and provides comprehensive reporting of the required reinforcement calculated based on a chosen design code. Detailed drawings may be produced effortlessly for slabs and beams designed using SAFE. SAFE may be used as a stand-alone application, or may be used in conjunction with ETABS or SAP2000 to complete analysis, design, and detailing of concrete floor plates created in ETABS or SAP2000.
