SAFI 結構設計軟體介紹（About SAFI）
SAFI是加拿大SAFI Quality Software Inc.開發的一款結構分析軟體▩◕，廣泛應用於各類結構計算分析▩◕，例如鋼結構分析◕◕、混凝土結構分析◕◕、鋁製框架結構分析◕◕、橋樑結構分析◕◕、木質框架結構分析◕◕、塔架結構分析及石油鑽採結構分析等▩◕，可以自動完成載入◕◕、計算◕◕、校核等工作；完全能夠滿足風◕◕、流◕◕、雪◕◕、地震等各種載荷的載入和計算✘◕│•。SAFI採用圖形使用者互動方式建立模型▩◕，然後載入運算▩◕，所有工作均在同一介面內完成▩◕，最終自動生成計算報告✘◕│•。目前SAFI已廣泛應於用建築◕◕、橋樑◕◕、塔架及石油行業✘◕│•。

Analysis Type ·✘•：
• Linear first order analysis
• Linear second order (P-Delta) analysis
• Geometric non linear analysis
• Buckling analysis
• Modal analysis (frequency domain analysis) with consistent or lumped mass matrix.
• Linear spectral and time history seismic analysis
• Time history dynamic analysis
Loading for joints, members including concentrated, uniform, trapezoidal and thermal loads.
• Pressure or concentrated floor loads with two-way, one-way and truss distribution using triangular or quadrilateral surfaces.
• Pressure or concentrated loads on finite element plates.
• Gravity loads in any global direction calculated by the program.
• Imposed displacements at any joint.
• Moving loads are implemented in the SAFI Bridge program.
• User defined load combinations.
• Load combination wizard which generates load combinations according to NBCC, UBC,ASCE 7, BOCA, Eurocode and ECC.
• Load combination wizard also allows to create load patterns.
Reports:
• Results can be visualized either graphically or numerically
• Input data and results may be printed for the whole structure or partial structures using a graphical selection or a range of elements
• Customized list of input data and results to be printed
• Reports are available in several formats including SAFI reports, Microsoft Excel worksheets, Microsoft Access databases and ASCII text files
• All graphics can be printed or copied to the clipboard for use in external programs
