Reinforcement Detailing of Beams from ETABS output

Aim and introduction:Reinforcement Detailing of Beams from ETABS output

Procedure:

Steps:

• Go to the given plan and open with the elevation view

• Check the load combinations
• Select the design combinations
• check the design combinations

• Provide the reinforcement diagram and beam details using autocad

For grid A

At top:

Maximum Ast @ support=2045 mm^2

Maximum Ast @ middle=511 mm^2

At bottom:

Maximum Ast @ support=1945 mm^2

Maximum Ast @ middle= 789 mm^2

Hence we provide #3 no.s of 28mm dia bars On both top and bottom sides

For grid 3

At top:

Maximum Ast @ support=1940 mm^2

Maximum Ast @ middle=485 mm^2

At bottom:

Maximum Ast @ support=1105 mm^2

Maximum Ast @ middle= 1501 mm^2

Hence we provide #3 no.s of 22mm dia bars on both top and bottom sides

• Right click on the beam
• Go to the details
• Beam elements details are available

Results:The beams are designed using the Etab output in the autocad software.
