Mat Foundations

• Import existing geometry and loads from a STAAD.Pro V8i model or create a new mat from scratch.
• Quadrilateral or polygonal meshing along with holes.
• Intelligent meshing techniques considering the connected beams and column lines (create multiple map boundaries as well).
• True fi nite element design using the moments at the grid points on the elements.
• Punching shear and Wood and Armor moments (MXY) considered.
• Import existing geometry and loads from a STAAD.Pro V8i model or create a new mat from scratch.
• Re-arrangement of reinforcement zones according to user’s choice.
• Design performed using automatically generated panel zones (strips) or along any user-defined line.
• Stress contours available for a number of stress types (including base pressure) and plotted on defl ected shape.
• Comprehensive report generation including step-by-step hand calculations verifying all intermediate values and code clauses.
