    ETABS Tutorial 1: EGN-5439 The Design of Tall Buildings

    Uploaded by

    Muhammad Saqib Abrar
    This document provides instructions for creating a model of a tall building in ETABS and performing preliminary design checks. It outlines steps to define the model properties including material properties, frame sections, wall sections, load cases, and load combinations. It then guides the user through drawing columns, beams, shear walls, and slabs, applying loads, running analyses, and viewing member forces to check for any errors before proceeding to model additional stories. The goal is to properly model the first story and run checks before replicating to higher floors.
