I had tried to do the design of slabs and foundation in ETABS, it is very good and better than SAFE and easier. The drawback of designing the foundation in ETABS is that the full model work together and any change on the foundation sizes or thickness, it changes the stresses on the full system not only the foundation which force you to check the model more than one time to make sure your design is safe. Actually, this way leads to perfect design, but you will lose a lot of time in doing the alterations.
