A Complete Foundation Solution
RISAFoundation 2.03 gives you the ability to solve and optimize all types of foundation systems, including mat foundations, grade beams and isolated spread footings.

The program fully and completely integrates with RISA-3D and RISAFloor, providing a complete structural design solution.
Whether running standalone or from within RISA-3D/RISAFloor, RISAFoundation provides unparalleled ease, flexibility and power for the drawing, design and optimization of foundation systems.

Automatic mesh generation, thick plate modeling and comprehensive rebar calculations and detailing are some of the many reasons why RISAFoundation stands apart.

Design Features
•Calculation of rebar requirements using design strips
•Design strips may easily be drawn anywhere on the slab
•Design cuts can also be drawn anywhere on the slab
•Design for bending and shear at all design cuts
•Calculation of punching shear
•Grade beams are automatically designed and detailed
•Automatic enveloping and rebar calculation
•Design codes: ACI 1999/2002/2005
•Automatic code based (ASCE, UBC, IBC, BOCA, SBC, ACI, International) load combination generation as well as user specified combinations
•Exact integration of concrete stress using either parabolic or rectangular stress blocks

What’s New
The new features of Version 2.0 make foundation design easier than ever. Some of these are:
•Add pedestals to mat slabs
•Full punching shear calculation on mat slabs
•Single layer reinforcement for slabs
