Structural Modelling using Etabs 2018
CHALLENGE 09
Aim:
To model and analyze the G+7 storey building using ETABS with application of proper load cases and load combinations for the given typical floor plan drawing.
PROCEDURE:
- Initially open the given architectural plan in Auto cad and study the plan & locate the postions of beams, column and shear walls.



- After done the postioning then the strctural plan should implemented in the Etabs software.
Step 1:
Open the ETABS Software.
- so, now open the etabs software and click on the new model option.

- It will appears a model initialization window, then select the Use Built-in settings with option and fill the units and codes as per the detailes we used.

- Then again it will appear another window-New model quick template. By using this tempate select the grids and storeys and respectivelty it dimensions also.
Set the Grid and storey details using editing options.Provide 4 grids at x-Direction and 6 grid at y-Direction with the proper spacing.

Step 2:
Now define each story and story height.


Step 3:
Click Define tab and select the materials.Choose the material type such as concrete for M25.

Step 4:
Similarly for Rebar material, Click define select add new material option and choose the type as Rebar.
Select Grade as HYSD grade 500.

Step 5:
Click define tab.Select frame section property
Provide the beam dimensions as 350 x 550.Then modify the rebar details.

Step 6:
Click define tab.Select frame section property
Provide the Column dimensions as 400 X 600.Then modify the rebar details.


Step 7:
Click define.Select Section properties.Click on slab sections.
Provide the thickness of the frame as 150mm.


Step 8:
Click define.Select Section properties.Click on Wall sections.
Set the thickness of the wall as 250mm.


Step 9:
By using the Quick draw column/beam option place the columns in the floor plan at each grid intersection.
Select all storey option.

Step 10:
Similarly draw the beams as per the floor plan.

Draw the shear walls in required places.


Step 11:
Click on the plan and select base.Select one story.
Slect all the column base.
Click on assign .Select joint.Select the joints as fixed.

Step 12:
By using the Quick draw floor/draw rectangular floor plan option place the floors.
Select all storey option in bottom tool bar.

Step 13:
Click on the load patterns and define dead,brick wall and live load.

Step 14:
Apply the brick wall load in all the beam component.

Step 15:
Apply live load as per IS 875.
Live load = 2kn/sq.m ( As per table 1 from IS 875 Part 2)
Live load = 3kn/sq.m for balconies ,lift area and walk -way ( As per table 1 from IS 875 Part 2)


At the roof we take only 50% of live load.

Step 16:
Similarly the reduction factor has been taken from clause 3.2.1 in IS 875 part 2


Step 17:
Click on the load patterns and define the sesimic loads.

Calculate the time period T value from IS 13920 clause no 7.6.2

Step 17:
Define mass source.


Step 18:
Select on all story option.Goto select -Objective type-Floors.Select all the floors.
Goto assign ,click on shell ,click on diaphragms.Assign the dia-phragms to all the floors.

Step 19:
Go to Define .Click on the pier labels and the pier labels.

Select the shear walls one by one and assign the pier labels.

Step 20:
Click on the load cases and define the no.of modes.

Step 21:
Click on the analyze, then click on the load cases to run.Tick mark the calculate Diaphragms centres of Rigidity.
Step 22:
Click on define ,select function and select on Response spectrum.


Define the response spectrum in both X and Y direction.


Step 23:
Select load combinations ,click on the default design combinations.


Step 24:
Select analyze and Click on check the model.After the Model checking Click on the Run the analysis.


MODAL PARTICIPATION RATIO CHECK
- After the completion of analaysis.Then Go to the display-show tables- analysis results-strctural ouitput-modal information - modal mass participating ratio.

- hence stasisfied the modal participation of translational mode- first two fundamental modes should be greater than the transional mode(third one).
- mode1-0.6914
- mode2-0.6396
- mode3-0.6303
BASE SHEAR CHECK AND SCALING.
- Now, go to the base reactions.Go to the display-show tables-analysis result-strcture output-base reactions.

- `EQ_x= 1159.66kn & RS_x=1163.24`hence the scale factor is`1159.66/1163.24=0.996`
- `EQ_y=1265.75kn & RS_y=1128.56kn`hence the scale factor is `1265.27/1128.56=1.12`
CHECK FOR INTER-STORY DRIFT
- IN x direction:

As per the codal provision os IS 1893: 2016 it doesnot exceed the 0.004
we obtained 0.0022. so henece safe. - In y direction:

as per the codal provision os IS 1893: 2016 it doesnot exceed the 0.004
we obtained 0.0023. so henece safe.
RESULT:
The structural model must completed with provisions of IS 1893 and IS 13920.
Run a modal response spectrum analysis and checked the analysis results of the etabs model for
- inter-storey drift requirements
- vertical & planar irregularities
- minimum shear wall requirements
- maximum axial load ratio for column and shear walls
- effective moment of inertia for beams and columns etc.
