Reinforcement Detailing of Beams from ETABS output

Aim: To create a ETABS file for a G+4 buidling which is provided in the question and do run analysis and design the RCC moment resisting frame.

Introduction: To create a ETABS file for a G+4 buidling which is provided in the question and do run analysis and design the RCC moment resisting frame.

Procedure:

  • First open the Etabs software and open the drawing which is given in the attachment.
  • Then open the drawing.

  • Now click on the run analysis option to get the loads attached in the beams and columns.

  • Here we can see the loads assigned to the beams and columns.

  • Now click on the concrete frame design option.

  • Here we can see the analysis process is going on.

  • Here units and all the loads are assigned on the beams and columns.

  • Now click on the display design information which is available in the tab icon.

  • Select the type of option to which we want the design option.

  • Here shear reinforcing loads are assigned to the beams and columns.

  • Here there is a failure attained in the column as in the drawing.
  • Click on the column and right click the column.

  • Here we can see the options for the column details.

  • Click on the details and click ok option.

  • Now we can see the details of the column.

  • And also there is a shear properties in the table.

Now going to the another topic here we have

Sway shear force to right

  • Mas = 174kNm
  • Mbh = 293kNm
  • Lab = 4.725kNm
  • Vd+1 = 92kN

Vu,a = 46kN

Vu,b = 230kN

Sway shear force to Left

  • Mah = 234kNm
  • Mbs = 155kNm
  • Lab = 4.725m
  • Vd+1 = 70kN

Vu,a = 185kN

Vu,b = 45kN

Now go to define tab and click on load combinations option.

  • Here we can see the details of the columns.

  • Give right click on the column and we get the load details.

Then go to the load combination tab

  • Now select the option for the load combination.
  • Then click ok.

  • Now we can see the load combinations assigned to it.

Fy = 415 N/mm^2

Asv = 151mm^2

d = 450mm

Sv = 100mm

Vus = 245kN

Finally hence Shear rebar in drawing is okay as per IS-13920 code guideline.
