Design Features
Flexural design of reinforced concrete slabs and basemats and the flexural
and shear design of beams can be performed based on a variety of
international design codes. Slab reinforcement location and layout is
controlled using design strips. Design strip moments are obtained by integrating
the finite element stresses using an algorithm that always satisfies
equilibrium and accounts for the effects of twisting moments. Code
based punching shear checks are made around column supports and point
loads.
- ACI 318, CSA A23.3, Eurocode 2, BS 8110, Indian

- Automatic factored load combinations per code.
- SAFE defines perpendicular strips, integrates strip
moments and shears, and then designs the strips per selected code.
