This document describes the simulation framework used in the Snowmass Energy Frontier studies for future Hadron Colliders. An overview of event generation with \sc Madgraph5 along with parton shower and hadronization with \sc Pythia6 is followed by a detailed description of pile-up and detector simulation with \sc Delphes3. Details of event generation are included in a companion paper cited within this paper. The input parametrization is chosen to reflect the best object performance expected from the future ATLAS and CMS experiments; this is referred to as the "Combined Snowmass Detector". We perform simulations of pp interactions at center-of-mass energies √(s)= 14, 33, and 100 TeV with 0, 50, and 140 additional pp pile-up interactions. The object performance with multi-TeV pp collisions are studied for the first time using large pile-up interactions.
