Find The Limits
What is SACS Collapse?
SACS Collapse is offshore collapse analysis software that helps you determine the structural operating limits of your offshore structures. It makes it easy to identify failure mechanisms such as pushover and ship impact to dropped object, and blast analysis. With easy-to-use, non-linear finite element analysis capabilities you can reduce the risk of structural failure caused by extreme loads from environmental conditions or accidental incidents.
Automate Workflows
Automated workflows simplify the management of large and complex models, which encourage the team to explore more collapse scenarios. Customizable templates within a common structural model make it easier to manage multiple analyses.
Accelerate Accurate Predictions
Produce faster/better documents ready to communicate your design intent. Documents are industry compliant so you can stamp designs with ease and confidence.
Display Results Graphically
Visualize the outcome of full plastic analysis, including effects from impulse and time-based loading. Show failure progression, gradual plastification, and collapse mechanisms graphically.

One-time purchase with support
Perpetual License with SELECT
A perpetual license of Bentley software is a one-time purchase, with a yearly maintenance subscription, called SELECT. This includes 24/7/365 technical support, learning resources, and the ability to exchange licenses for other software once a year. With SELECT, you will benefit from:
- License pooling, so you can access your software from multiple computers.
- Access additional Bentley software with Term Licenses, which allow you to pay for what you use without the upfront cost of purchasing a perpetual license.
Annual renewal quotes are delivered directly to your inbox, and our experienced Renewal Representatives are available to answer your questions and guide you through any changes you’d like to make.
