This video demonstrates how to use the Mat Foundation tool in S-FOUNDATION to create and modify mat foundations. Mat foundations can have any shape. S-FOUNDATION automation guides the user by modeling the foundation pad, the foundation pedestals, walls, piles, pile caps, and rebar layouts. Use pre-defined or saved elements, or create an element on the fly. S-FOUNDATION creates the underlying FE mesh with the option for users to modify.
