SAFE v21.1.0 Enhancements - Date: 14-Aug-2023
Data Files
JGJ/T 483-2020 high-strength steel materials have been added to the Chinese material library

Drafting and Editing
An enhancement has been implemented to allow drawing of objects in the graphical user interface using a snap-only option. When enabled, objects may be drawn only if the cursor snaps to an item, which can be used in combination with various snap options to accurately control placement of objects.
Output and Display
An enhancement has been made to speed up display of strip forces, strip-force tables, and concrete slab design on models with many load combinations.


SAFEis 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.
