    SAFE is a special purpose program that automates the analysis and design of simple to     complex concrete flat plates and foundation systems using powerful object based modeling.     The program can analyze and design slabs or mats of arbitrary shapes and varying thickness,     drop panels, openings, edge beams and discontinuities. Foundations can be combinations of     Mats, Strip Footings or Isolated Spread Footings.

    The analysis is based upon the Finite Element method in a theoretically consistent fashion that     properly accounts for the effects of twisting moments. Meshing is Automated based upon User     Specified Parameters. Foundations are modeled as thick plates on Elastic Foundations, where     the Compression Only Soil Springs are automatically discretized based upon a modulus of sub     grade reaction that is specified for each Foundation Object.

    The Software produces reinforcing layouts and evaluates the effects of punching shear around     column supports. Options are available for including cracked properties in the finite element     model based upon the slab reinforcing that is provided.

    Also a comprehensive export option from ETABS is available that will automatically create     complete. SAFE models of any ETABS floor or foundation for immediate design by SAFE.
