Modelling of 25 storey building with the specified properties using ETABS
AIM:
Model a 25-storey building on ETABS with structural properties and to know modeling of a high rise building in ETABS software and to verify the seismic code requirements from ETABS analysis
INTRODUCTION:
By using ETABS software, analyse the building of 25-storey and see how a building behaves under various loads.
PROCEDURE:
STEP1) Install and Launch ETABS 2020
- Install the ETAB software from CSI Website
- After complete the installation, Launch ETABS 2020 software from windows
- ETABS home interface will be open as shown below

STEP2) Create New Model
- Click on New Modal from ETABS home interface
- Select Unit Built in Setting from Modal Initialization dialog box
- Change display unit as METRIC SI
- Region for default material as INDIA
- Steel selection database INDIAN
- Steel design code IS-800:2007
- Concrete design code IS-456:2000 enter OK

STEP3) Create Grids
- A new dialog box opened as New Modal Quick Templates
- Select Custom Grid Spacing and click on the Edit Grid Data
- Modify the X & Y Grid Data from the Grid System Data dialog box and click OK


STEP4) Add Building Storey
- Select Custom Story Data and click on Edit Story Data
- A new dialog box open as Story Data
- Rename the levels of the story 1,2 3,4 as plinth and story 1,2,3 respectively
- Only plinth level height is 5 and all other story height is 3
- Story 1 as master story so, select yes, towards the story 1
- Change story 2 & 3 similar to story 1
- To add more story above the story 3, right click on story 3 and click add story>keep existing story heights
- Provide number of added stories 22 from the dialog box, click OK
- All 25 story are created then change Similar To option as Story 1





STEP5) Define Material
- The grid arrangement of the new modal will open
- Go to Define and click Material Property
- Define Material dialog box will open, click on Add New Material
- Add New Material dialog box will open, select Material Type Concrete and ensure Grade M30 click OK
- Material Properly Data dialog box will open, click OK
- Again, click on Add New Material
- Add New Material dialog box will open, select Material Type Rebar and select Grade HYSD 415 click OK
- Material Properly Data dialog box will open, click OK








STEP6) Add Column, Beam
- Go to Define tab, and select Frame Section from Section Property
- Click on Add New Property from Frame Properties dialog box
- Click on Rectangular Section for Beam from Frame Property Shape Type
- Change the Property Name as B300X400 and Material M30 and section dimension Depth as 400 & width as 300 from Frame Section Property Data, click on Modify/Show Rebar under Reinforcement
- Change Design Type and Rebar Material, click OK
- Again, Add New Property for Column and select Rectangular Section
- Change the Property Name, Material and Dimension and Modify/Show Rebar similarly








STEP7) Add Slab
- Go to Define, Select Slab Section from Section Property
- Click on Add New Property for Slab
- Change the Property Name, Slab Material, Modeling Type and Thikness of Slab




STEP8) Load Pattern
- Go to Define and select Load Patterns
- Add Wall Load as Super Dead type
- Simalry add EQX & EQY Load as Seismic type and select IS-1893:2016
- Modify the lateral load and uncheck the other direction except X for EQX and Y for EQY
- Change the zone as per code 16




STEP9) Define Mass Source
- In Define tab Select Mass Source
- Click on Modify/Show Mass Source
- Check mark only Specified Load Pattern
- Add wall, live and dead load




STEP10) Check Load Case
- Go to Define and select Load Cases
- Check load cases and click OK


STEP11) Load Combinations
- Go to Define select Load Combinations
- Add Default Design Combination
- Check on Concrete Frame Design and Convert To User Combination




STEP12) Draw Column
- Select Quick Draw Column
- And change the
- Select All Stories
- Click on Left Most Y Direction Grid to place the column
- Select all the column and make Replicate








STEP13) Draw Beam
- Select Quick Draw Beam and change the Property
- Click Between Two Columns and place the beam X & Y Direction
- And make Replicate





STEP14) Draw Slab
- Change set plan as Stroy 1 and Similar Stories
- Select Quick Draw Floor icon and change the Property
- Click on the Boundries Of The Grid
- Slab will be created for all floor





STEP15) Assign Load
- Select all Beam
- Assign Frame Load as a Distributed
- Load Pattern Name Wall and Uniform Load 10kn/m
- Similarly select slab
- Assign shell load as uniform
- Load Pattern Name live and Uniform Load 3 kn/m










STEP 16) Add Diaphragms
- Select Slab
- Assign Shell as Diaphragms




STEP 17) Save the Model
- Choose appropriate folder and name to save the model

STEP 18) Run Analyse the Model
- Click on Run Analysis Button
- This will Analyse the structure and provide the result


STEP 19) Check the Model Information
- Click on Tables in Model Explorer tab
- Goto Tables>Analysis Result>Structure Output>Model Information
- Click one by one to all table and check the results



STEP 20) Plots the Story Response
- Goto open Story Response Plot from Display
- Change the Display Type and Case/combo for EQX and EQY
- Verify the Maximum Story Drifts for both EQX and EQY
