I would very much apreciate the help of a CSi SAFE user, as I am learning this software to model a waffle slab (see attached picture), which will be post-tensioned in one direction.
I normally use Robot but I can't use post-tensioning with it, that's why I'm learning SAFE.
I've already seen the Watch and Learn videos series and played around with the program, but I've encountered problems even in this inicial stage.
1 - It doesn't have a database of european materials (unlike Robot). Is there a way to activate it or do I have to create a spreadsheet with all the concrete/steel/tendon properties and then add it to the program?
2 - I can't find an option to model a single post-tensioned beam with SAFE, without modelling a slab. Is there a way to do this or do you recommend another program?
3 - In the example of the picture I've attached, I can't model the exact geometry of the slab, because there are 2 types of thickness areas.
The overall thickness is 45cm, but in the areas that have the waffle moulds the thickness is 5cm.
When I assign the Slab1(45cm) and Slab2(5cm) properties to the areas, the program overlaps them both in the moulds areas. I mean, the program assigns the Slab1 properties to ALL of the slab area and then, when I try to assign Slab2 properties to ONLY the areas with moulds, the program keeps both of them in those areas instead of deleting Slab1. How can I model this geometry?
Note: in the picture, the blue shapes are the moulds, the black shapes are the walls and slab limits and the crosses are openings.
I was wondering if someone has some examples of raft foundation reinforcement. I'm trying to figure out a way to do this for an underground parking lot, and the soil conditions are severe. Also i would be very thankful for some analysis examples.

Material Property Characterization of Ultra-High Performance Concrete
Advances in the knowledge and understanding of the behaviors of concrete on the microstructural level have led to the development of the next generation of concrete, namely ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC). This report characterizes the material behaviors of one UHPC in terms of accepted concrete testing methodologies. The Federal Highway
Administration (FHWA) has been investigating the optimal use of UHPC in highway bridges, and this report presents results from the first phase of this research program. Of primary importance, the results contained herein provide a starting point for bridge owners interested in advancing the state of bridge engineering through the use of extremely high strength and high durability concretes. This report presents both what can be achieved today through the use of a commercially available concrete as well as the types of advancements that can be achieved by reevaluating the traditional components and proportions normally present in cementitious structural materials.

TAAD.Pro V8i SELECTseries 1 introduces several new enhancements in the analysis and design engine and enhancements to the RAM Connection and Piping Modes. This includes a nuclear design engine to the AISC N690:1984 code, additional UK and French National Annexes for the Eurocode 3 steel design module an updated Russian concrete design module and steel section databases and a Chinese Seismic Forces engine. The RAM Connection Mode has been redesigned to better operate with RAM Connection and use the RAM Connection v5.5 engine. The Piping mode has been enhanced with a new connection wizard to connect AutoPIPE models and thus rapidly transfer forces and complete designs.

i wanted to share my design calculations for bridge false work design.
i still have doubts on my calculations especially on the design for steel sheet piles (SSP) to be used as steel deck flooring.
can the SSP Type-II really support the loads acting above on it?
are my design calculations correct?
i want to have your opinions on this matter.
please do help me.
thanx in advance.
P.S. i dont know how to post using 'postgen'.
I wanted to post it as a screenshot and attached it on this thread. that is why i have it posted this way.my apologies.

Product Description:
This book is devoted to bridges that are built by incremental launching methods, using prestressed composite materials. It integrates the static, aesthetic, and economic aspects of construction techniques for building these state-of-the-art structures. Bridge launching is a comprehensive handbook, offering explanations of both the theoretical and technological aspects of the construction process. Both beam bridges and arch bridges are thoroughly analysed,and special theories aimed at optimising static aspects, as well as local phenomena, are developed. Construction assembly and pre-stressing methods for bridge segments and launching techniques are described together with assessment of load conditions, design assumptions by means of field monitoring and data recording. Presented within this essential handbook are sections on prestressed concrete bridges include cast-in-situ and segmental precast structures, composite bridges include I-girder open sections and box girders, and prestressed composite bridges includes stiffened and corrugated-plate webs. Design and technological requirements of launch equipment are discussed for the individual bridge types to provide more detail for the reader. This invaluable book is a must-buy for all those involved in bridge construction and innovative building techniques,such as bridge owners, design offices, bridge consultants, and construction equipment suppliers.
