When it comes to structural design, especially for floor systems, you don’t need a mere software but a tool that’s smart, reliable and built to understand how forces flow across complex floor geometries. CSI SAFE stands out as a preferred tool for engineering reinforced and post-tensioned concrete slabs and foundations. Whether you are an architect, structural engineer or a construction professional aiming to achieve precision in slab design. CSI SAFE delivers robust solutions with unparalleled ease.
Designed specifically for floor and foundation design, CSI SAFE uses finite element analysis to enhance structural accuracy. Developed by Computers and Structures, Inc., this software bridges the gap between architecture and engineering, allowing professionals to craft accurate, durable and cost-effective floor plans all in one seamless platform. No matter if you are working on mat foundations, slabs-on-grade or multi-level floor systems, SAFE ensures your base is always safe.
Unlike general structural software, CSI SAFE is exclusively designed for the analysis and design of floor software systems giving it a focused edge. From the thinnest residential slabs to massive commercial foundation mats, it can model everything with clarity and confidence.
SAFE includes intuitive drawing tools, object-based modelling and template-based workflows that simplify even the most complicated design requirements. It allows you to model columns, beams, walls, openings and drop panels with complete flexibility.
With powerful finite element analysis (FEM), SAFE evaluates load distribution, moments, deflection and support reactions in a highly visual and digestible format. Engineers can assess punching shear, creep and long-term deflections with precision.
Post-processing becomes hassle-free with automatic reinforcement design based on various international codes (like IS, ACI, Eurocode). SAFE even assists with post-tensioned slab design streamlining multi-stage construction workflows.
While ETABS and SAP2000 are more comprehensive in modelling full building structures and complex geometries, CSI SAFE specializes in a niche, ie, floor and foundation systems. It complements both by offering depth in slab detailing and makes exporting designs from ETABS into SAFE a breeze for detailed floor design.
This makes it a perfect add-on in the CSI suite of tools from CSI Engineering Software Pvt. Ltd., giving engineers the best of both precision and productivity.
When accuracy is non-negotiable and time is ticking, CSI SAFE rises to the challenge and becomes the unsung hero beneath every great structure. From real-time analysis to international code support and visually rich output reports, CSI SAFE makes structural challenges a lot simpler to crack. If you are designing a simple residential floor or a multi-story mat foundation, CSI SAFE brings safety, sophistication and simplicity to the table.
For engineers aiming for excellence in slab detailing and foundation modelling, CSI SAFE is a smart choice in the industry standard.
