CSI SAFE 22.4.0

Computers and Structures, Inc. (CSI) is pleased to announce the availability of SAFE 22.4.0. This update includes design improvements to Eurocode composite beams. There are improvements in the API functions for exporting and importing of the model and an updated version of the CSI Analysis Reference Manual.

SAFE 22.4.0 Enhancements - Date: 23-Dec-2024

Design
SAFE can now design composite beams with large web openings per the provisions of SCI Publication 355 and of Eurocode 3 - Design of Steel Structures - Part 1-13. This includes beams with a regular I-section and discrete openings as well as castellated and cellular beams.
Documentation
The CSI Analysis Reference Manual has been updated to include content for minor existing features that were previously only described in the Help, as well as for style and improved ability to search within the PDF file.
Application Programming Interface (API)
New API functions have been added to allow export and import of the model text file (.f2k) or the database tables to Excel, Access, Text, or XML file.


SAFE is a software tailored for the engineering of elevated floor and foundation slab systems. Slab modeling, analysis, and design procedures feature a suite of sophisticated tools and applications, couple with post-tensioning, punching-shear, and beam detailing, and integrate the influence of soils, ramps, columns, braces, walls (rectilinear or curvilinear), and other interfacial elements. Interoperability with SAP2000 and ETABS allows users to import models, loading, and displacement fields into SAFE for more advanced local assessment of slab systems within larger structures. A 3D-object-based model may originate in SAFE or import from SAP2000, ETABS, or CAD. Templates quickly initiate a model. Grid, snap, chamfer/fillet, trim/extend, circular- and spline-curve controls allow direct drawing of any slab shape. Replication tools streamline modeling for a series of unique slab systems, as was done with Studio Gang’s Aqua in Chicago, Illinois (Reid, Robert L. Chicago Tower’s ‘Wavelike’ Design Features Different Shapes For Every Floor. Civil Engineering Apr. 2007: 22). Up to four simultaneous display windows present the model. Interactive database editing presents definition tables in SAFE and Excel.
