ADAPT-Builder Platform
Introduction
Developed from the ground up with ADAPT Component Technology, the ADAPT-Builder Platform is a collection of fully integrated design and analysis tools for all of your concrete floor system, foundation and beam structures, with or without post-tensioning.
The solution's intuitive and easy-to-use 3D component modeling capabilities allow you to quickly model any structure. In addition, the Builder Platform is the industry's only solution that gives you the flexibility to analyse 3D structural models using either the Finite Element Method (FEM) or the Equivalent Frame Method (EFM). With specialised design tools for concrete beam frames, one-way or column-supported flat slabs, parking structures, mat foundations, ground-supported slabs, and built-in building codes (e.g., Australian-AS3600 (2001)), ADAPT's Builder Platform will immediately streamline and improve your concrete design practice.
ADAPT-Builder comes with its primary module ADAPT-Modeler in one package, but links with the programs ADAPT-Floor Pro, ADAPT-PT and ADAPT-RC.
Components
ADAPT-Modeler: An entirely graphical program that acts as the core module of the ADAPT-Builder Platform. ADAPT-Modeler is designed to generate a structural model of a complete floor system using Component Technology. Once the model is created, ADAPT-Modeler will generate all the ADAPT input files for ADAPT-RC or ADAPT-PT. ADAPT-RC and/or ADAPT-PT will then perform the analysis and design steps of the operation.
ADAPT-Floor Pro: Three-dimensional (3D) Finite Element Software for Analysis and Design of Concrete and Post-Tensioned Floor and Foundation Systems. Built on ADAPT's unique TrueStructure modeling and analysis technology, this software provides a powerful, yet easy to use tool for the analysis of all types of slab systems.
ADAPT-PT: Advanced Post-Tensioning Software for Beam Frames, Slabs and Floor Systems in Buildings and Parking Structures.
ADAPT-RC: Software for the Design, Analysis, and Investigation of Reinforced (Nonprestressed) Concrete Beams, Slabs and Floor Systems.
ADAPT-MAT: The most comprehensive three-dimensional (3D) Finite Element (FEM) Analysis and Design tool for Conventionally Reinforced or Post-Tensioned Mat Foundations, with or without Grade Beams.
ADAPT-SOG: (Slab-On-Grade "SOG") is a complete three-dimensional (3D) Finite Element (FEM) Analysis and Design tool for the analysis and design of post-tensioned foundations slabs, with or without ribs, on either expansive or compressible soils.
