Objectives

• This course aims to teach students how to use ETABS to model, analyze, design and detailed a Building Structure subjected to static gravity and lateral load and be able to handle the largest and most complex building models through the followings:• Modeling: How to work with the physical member based objects and thus require less time in creation of the model and interpretation of the results.• Concrete Frame Design & Detailing: Applicable to line objects and the program determines the appropriate design procedure when the analysis is run.• Steel Frame Design & Detailing: How to detail the process using various design code algorithms for steel member selection, stress checking and drift optimization.• Steel Connection Design: Design of steel connections is seamlessly integrated within the program.• Composite Beam: Auto select-section property can be defined to composite beams to determine their sizes for analysis.• Dynamic Analysis: Various options from response spectrum

Outcomes

By the end of THIS course ,trainers will be able to:• create models using objects and can understand the concepts when editing and creating complex models.• recognize story levels and be able to input building data in a logical and easy manner.• create a model of the floor systems and the vertical and lateral framing systems to be able to analyze and design the entire building due to the integrated system of ETABS.• keep your design data and design intellectual property in graphics, tabular form or send it to a printer • export files or save it as an ASCII file
