Any single or multilevel concrete structure

Simple or very complex geometries

Quick stability analysis of mid-rise buildings

Load takedown for transfer elements or mat foundations

Calculation of differential settlement for tall buildings

Determine impact of post-tensioning or prestressing on all members of a building

Accurate combination of lateral loads in slab and mat design

Analyze effect of complex slab systems on lateral stability of buildings

Vibration analysis of concrete buildings

Speed - very easy and fast modeling of concrete buildings

Post-Tensioning - models post-tensioning in building models

Ease of Use - no fuss, but accurate automated 3D finite element meshing and analysis

Integration - building stability analysis, detailed floor and foundation design in one integrated model

Accuracy - floor system's bending response accurately tied into overall building solution

BIM - industry leading integration with Revit Structure

Generates a true 3D solid physical model of an entire floor system or complete concrete building

• No simplification of geometry or manual creation of analytic model required

• Uses smart components to assemble an entire floor system: slab regions, walls, beams, columns, drop caps, drop panels, rebar, tendons and openings

• Models steps above and below the slab as well as any type of slab depression

Streamline modeling process by importing DWG/DXF files and intelligently converting to structural components

One-click switches between single- and multi-level modeling modes

Coordinated multi-level modeling saves time and reduces errors

Ability to copy levels up or down to speed up modeling

Flexible definition of component releases and boundary conditions

Handles complex models with ease and accuracy

Models can be supported on columns, walls, point supports, line supports, or any configuration of springs (point, line or area representing soil)

View and examine 3D rendered solid model to verify the accuracy of the structure's representation

The program supports the following units:

• SI

• MKS

• American Customary

Apply gravity or lateral loads of any configuration, anywhere on the model

Wind load wizard

• A practical utility that allows users to quickly calculate and apply wind loads to the structure. Uses code specified formulas or user defined wind pressure profile. Wizard automatically calculates structure's exposure surface and applies loads at windward and leeward faces of structure.

• ASCE 7-05

• ASCE 7-10

• IS 875 (Part III)

Seismic load wizard

• This tool gives option of automatically generating code specified seismic loads or applying user defined loads to the structure. Seismic loads are applied to the center of mass of each level.

• ASCE 7-10

• User defined base shear can be automatically distributed and applied to structure based on distribution coefficient and mass contribution of each level

• Story forces entered in a table are automatically applied to center of mass of each corresponding level

Building level internal reactions are available for single-level re-analysis

Uses integrated tendon modeling as opposed to "balanced loading". This overcomes many of the approximations and shortcomings inherent in the conventional modeling of post-tensioning. Ask ADAPT to email you a technical note on its modeling approach [Aalami, Bijan, O "Structural Modeling of Post-Tensioned Members." American Society of Civil Engineers, Structural Journal, February 2000, pp. 157-162]

Model bonded or unbonded tendons

Design using effective force or specify stressing ends and friction loss parameters

Calculates prestressing force in members as well as secondary restraining effects (hyperstatic moments) due to prestressing

Tendon generation wizards for banded and distributed tendons

Automatically or manually model and dynamically edit tendons in plan or elevation view online video ...

Tendon curvature check against a minimum radius of curvature

Automated tendon clash detection

Program calculates and graphically shows force along tendon

Patented algorithm automatically breaks down any concrete floor system into tributary regions (US Patent No.: 9,471,720)

Automatically detects discontinuities in columns and walls and transfers loads down to foundation

Calculated tributary-area based load takedown

Use tributary loads to design columns, transfer slabs or beams

Graphically compare tributary loads against FEM results - excellent method to check your models

Industry leading automated 3D finite element meshing algorithm

Option to mesh and analyze complete model or any individual level

Performs a detailed finite element analysis of the entire floor systems and its supporting structure using shell and frame elements

Unlike other general analysis programs in the market that analyze all horizontal components at the same node level, Edge properly maintains the different offsets of steps in slabs and/or beams with respect to the slab they are framed into - this results in more realistic analysis and deflection results

Smart components automatically establish required FEM connectivity, eliminating need for manual fine-tuning of analysis model

Carries out integrated modal vibration analysis on complete model or any user-defined sub-region

Member design forces for columns and walls reported graphically and concise tabular reports

Automatic drift check

Define arbitrary manual design sections across horizontal components - software calculates actions, required rebar and moment capacity

When used with Floor Pro or MAT, automatically combines gravity analysis results carried out at slab level with lateral load solution obtained at building level 

Detailed quantity takeoff report

Generates both professional and ready-to-submit graphical and tabular reports
