@ Aslam.
Thank you for your explanation.
I'm still not understand how SAFE will check the punching shear stress if we only input the spring constant (we never input the pile size). When I learn about punching shear, I need to know the punching shear area (which is for this case is perimeter of the pile multiply by the effective depth of the raft).
Sorry if my question is too basic for you. Sometime I'm just feel curious about this.
For normal slab (flat slab, two way slab), we already input the column size or drop thickness so should be no problem.
