For those structural engineers who have post tension design experience, what is a quality software that should be considered for purchase? I have used ADAPT-PT version 8 but had some issues with it. Plus it only designs slabs and beams, with no cosideration of how the compressive forces affect the columns. Are there any other alternatives? Thanks in advance for your input.

I'd look into RAM Concept. May not do everything you need, but it quite a powerful tool for PT slabs and matt foundations.
