Vasavi_External Exam_ETABS

AIM: To Model and analyze a 10 storey building on ETABS with structural properties.

1-Ground floor or plinth floor level can be taken at a height of 1.5 metres from the foundation level

2-Each of the successive 10 storeys has a storey height of 4 metres.

3-The Structural element sizes (Beam, Column, Slab) on your own for Modelling purposes.

4-Along with ensuring All frame elements are passing in Design.

TOOLS REQUIRED:

1-File menu

2-New model

3-Define tab

4-material properties

5-frame properties

6-slab properties

7-Assign tab

8-Slab sections

9-diaphrams

10-design tab

11-analyse

12-display-deform

13-Run analysis

PROCEDURE:

1-Open ETABS-2019 from desktop.

2-Go to FILE menu,There select NEW MODEL.

3-Then a dialog box appears, regarding model initialization.

4-Then click on use built in settings and there change the display units,steel section database,steel and concrete design code.

5-Then a dialog box regarding grid spacing i.e New model quick templates appears .There change number of grids to

X GRID with equispace of 4 m=5

Y GRID with equispace of 4 m=4

6-Change story data in story dimensions that is in required dimensions.

7-Go to DEFINE there select material properties .Ther choose add new material.

8- Then a dialog box appears there choose indian concrete type as mentioned

  • Grade of Concrete: M30
  • Grade of Steel Reinforcement Bars: Fe 415

9-Then again select Define tab there this time select Section properties.

10-There choose frame properties ,then a dialog box appears regarding it

11-Similarly go to define tab ther choose slab properties and give accordingly values.

12-then select quick draw columns-And place columns at the grid point for all stories.

13-Then place beams and slabs too similarly.

14-Through base connections change joints,restraints and there select pinned connection.

15-THEN ASSIGN GRIDS.

16-Add mass source

17-After that assign load frames from define tabs.

18-Assign LOAD COMBINATIONS required.

19-We have to apply and perform analysis diapharagms.

20-Then after this perform checking.

21-Analyse the model

22-go to display and then choose deformed

23-Deformed shape will be displayed for any particular loads.

24-If required go to display and click on show tables and choose modal participating ratio.

25-The modal participating mass ratio table will avaliable and then run the analysis of model sucessfully.
