Dear SE Pakistan Members, I am trying to model pits in Raft in CSi SAFE. PIT Bottom slab is depressed 2m below the Top of RAFT. I have following concerns which I would be glad if anyone can address. 1- What is the criteria/condition to analyze raft slab at one level (continuous) and pit/ raft on different level. 2- What is the appropriate method to utilize in SAFE to model RAFT with Pits. I came across option of Vertical offset in SAFE and the other is to model wall at periphery and model slab at bottom. Generally, we model same raft thickness below PIT depressed at 45 degree angle . For this reason, I always modeled PIT on same level as that of RAFT. (See Attached Pic for RAFT Plan & Section of PITS).

Dear Esteemed Fellows users of Safe program: Most international codes (including ACI, BS, ...) consider the impact of moments when calculating the punching shear stress in the Flat-Slabs. Referring to the attached picture, Is there any mistake in the sign of the considered moments in the punching result sheet and the correspondent moments signs appeared in the output results of the considered column. Remember that the main axes of the considered column are the default ones of Safe; axis 2 is parallel to the X axis and the axis 3 is parallel to the axis Y. The attached picture is a snapshot of the example BS 8110-97 RC-PN-001.FDB came with Safe-Verification-Design Examples. Your participation and feedback are deeply appreciated, thank you very much indeed.
