    The document outlines the step-by-step procedure for modeling, analyzing, designing a structure using ETABS. It involves modeling the structure, defining materials, sections, loads, running analysis, designing for gravity and seismic loads as per codes.

    The main steps involved are 1) Defining grid lines and story data 2) Defining materials and sections 3) Generating the model by drawing beams, columns, slabs 4) Defining various loads 5) Assigning support conditions 6) Applying diaphragm action 7) Running analysis

    The various loads like dead, live, earthquake loads are defined using options in ETABS. Dead load is calculated automatically based on member properties. Other loads are assigned to specific members. Point and uniform loads can also be defined and assigned.

    B. E. Civil, M. E. Structures, Ph.D. in Structural Engineering (Pursuing)
    Chartered Engineer, A.M.I.E., A.M. ASCE
    Step by step procedure to learn ETABS
    1) Modelling using ETABS.
    2) Comparison of total DL and LL.
    3) Time period and Mode participation factor of building in X and Y
    direction.
    4) Seismic force calculation as per IS: 1893(Part 1) - 2002.
    a) Static method
    b) Dynamic method
    5) Design under gravity and seismic load
    Step 1: Modeling using ETABS
    1) Open the ETABS Program
    2) Check the units of the model in the drop-down box in the lower
    right-hand corner of the ETABS window, click the drop-down box to set
    units to kN-m
    3) Click the File menu > New model command

    Note: we select No because this first model you will built


    4) The next form of Building Plan Grid System and Story Data Definition will
    be displayed after you select NO button.
    • Set the grid line and spacing between two grid lines. Set the story
    height data using Edit Story Data command
    5) Define the design code using Options > Preferences > Concrete
    Frame Design command
    • This will Display the Concrete Frame Design Preference form as
    shown in the figure.
    6) Click the Define menu > Material Properties
    • Add New Material or Modify/Show Material used to define material
    properties
    7) Define section columns and beams using Define > Frame section
    • Define beam sizes and click Reinforcement command to provided
    concrete cover
    • Define column sizes and click Reinforcement command to provided
    concrete cover and used two options Reinforcement checked or
    designed
    8) Define wall/slab/deck
    • To define a slab as membrane element and one way slab define using
    special one way load distribution
    9) Generate the model
    • Draw beam using Create Line Command and draw column using
    Create Column command
    • Slab is created using 3 options in which 1st draw any shape area, 2nd
    draw rectangular area and 3rd create area in between grid line
    • Above creating option used to generate the model as shown in below
    figure
    10) Define various loads (Dead load, live load, Earthquake load)
    • Dead Load: self weight multiplier is used 1 to calculate dead load as
    default.
    • Live load or any other define load
    • 1st select the member where assign this load than click the assign
    button.
    • Assign point load and uniform distributed load
    • Select assigning point or member element than click the assign
    button
    11) Assign support condition
    • Drop-down box in the lower right-hand corner of the ETABS window,
    Select only bottom single storey level to assign fixed support using
    assign > Joint/Point > Restrain (Support) command
    12) In building, slab is considered as a single rigid member during
    earthquake analysis. For that, all slabs are selected first and apply
    diaphragm action for rigid or semi rigid condition.
    13) Mass source is defined from Define > mass source command. As
    per IS: 1893-2002, 25% live load (of 3 kN/m2) is considered on all floor
    of building except at roof level.
    14) Run analysis from Analysis > Run Analysis command
    Step 2: Comparison of total DL and LL
    • Dead Load
    Weight of slab = 5×12×20×0.12×24 = 345 kN
    Weight of beam = 5×0.3×0.45×(12×5+20×4) ×24 = 2268 kN
    Weight of column = 5×0.3×0.45×20x(3.2-0.45) ×24 = 891 kN
    Total weight = 6615 kN
    • Live Load
    Live load = 4×12×20×3+1×12×20×1.5 = 3240 kN
    • Floor Finish Load
    FF = 5×12×20×1 = 1200 kN
    In ETABS, dead load and other loads are shown from table as shown in
    figure.
    Step 3: Time period and Mode participation factor of building in X and Y direction.
    • Static time period base on the IS 1893 is: 0.075xH0.75 = 0.6 sec
    • Dynamic time period as per ETABS analysis is 0.885 sec in X direction and 0.698 sec in Y
    direction
    • Time period is shown in ETABS from Display > Show Mode Shape
    • Mass participation factor is shown from Display > Show Table > Model
    Information > Building Model Information > Model Participating Ratio.
    • Bending moment and shear force diagram is shown from Display >
    Show Member Forces > Frame/Pier/Spandrel Forces command
    Bending Moment Diagram for Dead Load Shear Force Diagram for Dead Load
    • Select any beam or column member and press right click to shown
    below figure
    DYNAMIC ANALYSIS
    Step 4: Seismic force calculation as per IS: 1893 (Part 1) - 2002.
    (a) Static Method
    • Define static load from Define > Static load command
    • Press modify lateral load to shown below figure and assign various
    value as per IS 1893.
    (b) Dynamic Analysis Method
    • The design response spectra of IS 1893-2002 given as input in the Define menu >
    Response Spectrum Functions.
    • Response spectra load cases are define in Response Spectrum cases
    • The damping value is specified which is used to generate the
    response spectrum curve. 5% damping factor and 9.81 (g) scale factor
    is assigned as shown in Figure
    • Run the analysis and various curves is shown from Display > Show
    Story Response Plot
    DESIGNING
    Step 7: Design under Gravity and Seismic Load
    • Design is carried out using different combination. ETABS have facility
    to generate combination as per IS 456-2000.
    • Select assigning combination for Design from Design > Concrete
    Frame Design > Select Design Combination
    • Design is carried out from Design > Concrete Frame Design > Start
    Concrete Design
    • Various results in form of percentage of steel, area of steel in column
    beam is shown from Design > Concrete Frame Design > Display
    Design Information
    • Select any beam member and left click to shown below figure
    • Flexure detailing of beam element is shown in Figure
    • Shear detailing of beam element is shown in Figure
