Altair S-FOUNDATION is a comprehensive software solution designed for the analysis and design of both deep and shallow foundations. Its adaptable and intuitive foundation management system allows users to model virtually any foundation layout, including isolated, combined, continuous, and mat foundations, accommodating features like pedestals, walls, piles, steps, and varying thicknesses. The software automatically manages the underlying finite element mesh, providing flexibility for design and optimization. Users can perform linear and nonlinear analyses, ensuring geotechnical and structural design code compliance. Integration with Altair's S-FRAME and S-TIMBER facilitates seamless data transfer, streamlining the workflow between superstructure and substructure analysis.
