About Developer
Developer : Computers and Structures, Inc. (CSI)
Providing software solutions for structural and earthquake
engineering.
Founded in 1976 by company President Ashraf Habibullah, CSI is
recognized worldwide as an innovative leader in the development
of software tools for the analysis and design of civil
structures. CSI products are licensed to thousands of structural
engineering firms throughout the USA and in over 60 foreign
countries.
The development of CSI software spans three decades, starting
with the research of Dr. Edward L. Wilson at the University of
California at Berkeley. The revolutionary SAP program was first
released in 1970, and Dr. Wilson has subsequently been
recognized by national and international engineering societies
as one of the preeminent researchers in the field of computer
aided structural analysis.
Each of CSI's programs is tailored to specific classes of
structures, allowing the engineering community to work at more
productive and efficient levels than is possible with "general
purpose" type programs. SAP2000 is intended for use on civil
structures such as bridges, dams, stadiums, industrial
structures and buildings. ETABS has been developed specifically
for multi-story building structures, such as office buildings,
apartments and hospitals. The SAFE System provides an efficient
and powerful program for the analysis and design of concrete
slabs and foundations.
Not only is CSI known for analytically sophisticated software,
but for unsurpassed product support as well. User support
activities include advice on structural systems, interpretation
of structural behavior, clarification on various aspects of
building codes, opinions on special modeling problems, and other
aspects associated with the subject of computerized structural
analysis and design.
