ETABS Software Usage Application Function

Constructing aesthetically pleasing buildings and being robust enough to stand up to tough weather is difficult. Technology has tremendously advanced in all areas. One need to stay updated with the newly emerging technologies and adopt modern practices to create better designs. This has led to many changes in the way engineers work and operate. Technological advancements have made their lives easier, and specific software development has enabled engineers to produce better results.

This article focuses on the ETABS application and its functions. It will explain what it is, why it should be used, its benefits, and its importance.

What Are the Advantages of ETABS Software?

Advantages of ETABS Software

The development of the ETABS software has inspired numerous engineers worldwide to develop more intricate structures.

 

  • Prompt Response: Any item can be created quickly, so there is no need to sit around and become frustrated because of assuming that your work is taking longer than it should.
  • Preciseness: Accuracy and dependability make structure creation unique, and that is why we search for software, isn't it? However, this situation has no actual reason for concern because models can be constructed with perfect accuracy in ETABS.
  • Detailed Editing: The ETABS software allows graphic user input and can easily make any design changes. You can create stunning buildings by utilising the new capabilities.
  • Vast Collection of Choices: It provides several 3D view choices for all side checks.
  • Simple navigation: Using the tools, you can move your object from any location while subjecting it to ongoing alterations. Real-time model editing is possible in ETABS.

 

Top Applications of ETABS Software

The process of establishing reinforcement details for structural components, including beams, columns, and slabs, is known as detailing. We must first model the structure using the data from the problem statement before determining the full reinforcement specifics in ETABS.

The building's modelling is done using the specifications listed below. 

  • Completing Modelling in CSI Detailing Application 

To  create a CSI detailing, open the CSI detailing programme and enter the reinforcement design values for the beams, columns, and slabs by the provided code requirements. Then, access the .EDB file that was previously saved in the ETABS programme by selecting the file option. After that, select the ‘new detailing’ option. The model which was first opened in the ETABS programme will be immediately imported into the CSI detailing programme. 

  • Assessing Slab Detailing Results 

All you must do is click on any of the floor specifics, which will provide results for the floor framing plan, the rebar plan, the top and bottom rebar plans, sections A and section B, reinforcement profile layer A and B, etc. The reinforcing information for the remaining slabs, including the ground floor slab and slab 1, can also be checked similarly. 

  • Establishing the Beam Detailing Results 

For generating details, you must select the beam detailing option on the left-hand side, which provides frame plans, schedules and tables, elevations and sections. View the comprehensive information in these options to examine the outcomes connected to the beam reinforcement.

For instance, If you want to check the findings for the beams on the second floor for a few specific altitudes and sections. For that, choose the beams on the second floor. 

Also, you may repeat the selection of the 4CB1 section in that beam, including the elevation, sections A and B, the reinforcing profile, the Bill of Materials, the number of rebars, and cage views. We must use the cage view option for real-time beam views for that specific beam in the second level that adheres to IS code criteria.

Job Opportunities for Civil Engineers after Learning ETABS 

  • Structural Engineer 

These people work with architects, surveyors, and contractors to plan and design structures. In addition, they are entrusted with the responsibilities of:

  • Developing structural models of projects using computer-aided design software
  • Analysing the load-bearing capacity of structures and materials
  • Calculating the strength of materials and determining the most appropriate designs
  • Conducting inspections and reviewing construction plans
  • Monitoring projects to ensure safety and compliance with regulations
  • Collaborating with other professionals to ensure a successful project

Average Salary: ₹4 LPA. 

  • Structural Design Engineers 

They are responsible for guiding the design of structural components of buildings, bridges, and other structures. Structural Design Engineers inspect existing structures to identify and recommend modifications, repairs and/or replacements. 

A Structural Design Engineer should have a Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering or a related field and a thorough understanding of structural analysis and design principles. They should have excellent problem-solving skills and be able to work effectively in a team environment.

Average Salary: ₹4.2 LPA

Conclusion

Learning ETABS is a great way to gain a deep understanding of structural engineering, and it can be very beneficial for any engineer or architect. It is an intuitive and powerful software tool for confidently analysing complex structures. 

ETABS help engineers and architects design safe and efficient structures that meet the requirements of their projects, making it a valuable tool for anyone in the construction industry. Learning ETABS through Skill-Lync can greatly improve your understanding of structural engineering and help you gain a competitive advantage in the job market.
