  • Now we get the frame properties tab select add new property

  • Now select a shape as required

  • Now assign the beam size in section dimension
  • Now click on Modify/show modifiers

  • Now select M3 design only (beam)option
  • And select longitudinal as HYSD500 and HYSD415 as confinement bars and click ok

  • Follow same steps for column and give dimensions as 800x800
  • Now select P-M2-M3design (COLUMN)option
  • And select longitudinal as HYSD500 and HYSD415 as confinement bars and click ok

  • Now go to define and select section properties and select slab sections

  • Now click on add new property

  • Now add name as slab 150
  • Give thickness as 150 and modeling type membrane and click ok

  • Now select the quick draw column

  • Now select all stories as shown

  • In properties of object select c800x800

  • Now assign the column as shown

  • Similarly, select the beam

  • And assign the beams as shown

  • Now select draw rectangular floor or wall and assign the floor as shown

  • Now go to the base floor and select all the points
  • Now go to assign and joint and select restraints

  • Now we get joint assignment
  • Now select x,y,z translations as shown and click ok

  • Now go to define and select load patterns
  • Now we get the load patterns tab
  • Now add loads as shown below

  • Now select Eqx and click on modify the lateral load
  • Now we get a new tab select site type as III and keep x-dir on as shown
  • Similarly with Eqx+, Eqx-,Eqy,Eqy+,Eqy-

  • Now go to assign and select shell loads and select uniform loads

  • Select load pattern as live and load as 3 till 24 floor
  • Select load pattern as live and load as 1.5 for 25th floor

  • Now go to select and select and object type

  • Now select beams

  • Now go to assign and select frame loads and distributed

  • Give uniform load as 10 and load pattern as a brick wall

  • Now go to define and select mass source
  • Now we get mass source tab now select modify/show mass source

  • Now we add load patterns in the mass source data as shown

  • Now go to define and select load combination as shown

  • Now in load combination tab select Add default design combos

  • We select concrete framed design
  • Now we can see the load combinations as shown

  • Now go to select and select and object type

  • Now select floors

  • Now go to assign and shell and diaphragms

Now we get a shell assignment tab select D1 and ok

  • Now go to analyze and select check model

  • Now we get check model tab click on select all ok
  • Now we get the wanings tab as shown

Now run analysis

  • Now click f6 to get the deformed shapes tab
  • Now you will get deformed shapes tab and Now add live load and ok

  • Similarly, add dead load and Eqx and brick wall loads

  • Now go to display and select show tables
  • Now select modal participation mass ratios and click ok

  • Now we get modal participation mass ratios table

Result:

  • Modeling and analyzing a 25 storey building with the specified properties using ETABS has successfully completed
