ADAPT Floor Pro 2018
โปรแกรมวิเคราะห์และออกแบบพื้นคอนกรีตอัดแรง (Post Tensioning) และคอนกรีตเสริมเหล็กแบบ 3 มิติ ซึ่งพัฒนาโปรแกรมโดย Prof. Dr. Bijan O. Aalami , USA. มากว่า 30 ปีจากประเทศสหรัฐอเมริกา ปัจจุบัน ADAPT Floor Pro เป็นโปรแกรมยอดนิยมใช้กันแพร่หลายทั่วโลก กว่า 100 ประเทศรวมจนถึงประเทศไทย สำหรับบริษัทพื้นคอนกรีตอัดแรง และวิศวกรออกแบบโครงสร้างอาคารสูง อาคารขนาดใหญ่โดยเฉพาะ
ADAPT Floor Pro เป็นโปรแกรมที่ใช้กันวิเคราะห์ด้วยวิธี Finite Element Method เป็นโปรแกรมทำงานได้เดี่ยวๆ ในการออกแบบพื้นอาคารทีละชั้น และยังสามารถทำงานร่วมกับโปรแกรม ADAPT Builder ในการโมเดลอาคาร 3 มิติทั้งหลัง เพื่อที่จะสามารถโมเดลอาคารสูงได้ง่าย และทำงานร่วมกับโปรแกรม ADAPT EDGE และ ADAPT MAT ในโปรแกรมตระกูล ADAPT และ ยังสามารถทำงานร่วมกับโปรแกรมที่รองรับระบบ BIM (Building Information Modeling) อื่นๆได้ เช่นโปรแกรม Revit ที่สถาปนิกขึ้นโมเดลอาคาร 3 มิติไว้แล้ว ทำให้วิศวกรโครงสร้างนำมาใช้งานต่อได้เลย โดยไม่ต้องเสียเวลามาขึ้นโมเดลอาคารใหม่อีกรอบ โปรแกรมยังสามารถทำงานร่วมกับโปรแกรมวิเคราะห์ออกแบบโครงสร้างทั่วไปได้ เช่น ETABS,TEKLA เป็นต้

Features
Structural Modeling
- Generates a true 3D solid physical model of an entire floor system or complete concrete building
- No simplification of geometry or manual creation of analytic model required
- Uses smart components to assemble an entire floor system: slab regions, walls, beams, columns, drop caps, drop panels, rebar, tendons and openings
- Models steps above and below the slab as well as any type of slab depression
- Define standard concrete sections or generic steel members - Streamline modeling process by importing DWG/DXF files and intelligently converting to structural components
- One-click switches between single- and multi-level modeling modes
- Define multiple stiffness profiles for your model, e.g., uncracked for gravity and cracked for global lateral analysis
- Coordinated multi-level modeling saves time and reduces errors
- All slab models for a project can be in one model file
- Flexible definition of component releases and boundary conditions
- Handles complex models with ease and accuracy
- Models can be supported on columns, walls, point supports, line supports, or any configuration of springs (point, line or area representing soil)
- View and examine 3D rendered solid model to verify the accuracy of the structure's representation
Loads- Apply loads of any configuration, anywhere on the slab
- Supports live load patterning and automatically reduced live loads, where applicable
- Define gradient or uniform temperature loading
- Subject model to shrinkage strain
- Can model internal lateral load reactions imported from ETABS
- When used with Edge, analyzes structure for any applied building lateral loads including wind and seismic forces
Tributary-Area Based Load Takedown Patented- algorithm automatically breaks down any concrete floor system into tributary regions (US Patent No.: 9,471,720)
- Automatically detects discontinuities in columns and walls and transfers loads down to foundation
- Calculated tributary-area based load takedown
- Use tributary loads to design columns, transfer slabs or beams
- Graphically compare tributary loads against FEM results - excellent method to check your models
Post-Tensioning and Prestressing- Uses integrated tendon modeling as opposed to "balanced loading". This overcomes many of the approximations and shortcomings inherent in the conventional modeling of post-tensioning.

Link with ADAPT-PT and ADAPT-RC
The structural model generated can be used with no modification to run either on ADAPT-PT, or ADAPT-RC, both of which are based on Equivalent Frame Method. Conversely, the User can first design the floor system using ADAPT-PT, determine the optimum force, profile and location of the post-tensioning. and then within the same model run the ADAPT-Builder-Floor Finite Element Analysis. The procedure is detailed in a PTI publication [Aalami, Kelly, "Design of Concrete Floors with Particular Reference to Post-Tensioning,
