  • ETABS Watch and Learn video tutorials cover a wide range of topics, from basic product overviews to advanced subjects such as performance-based design.

Subsequently an example of seismic analysis of regular frame structure and irregular frame structure are solved manually and through ETABS. Example A plan.

Creating and modifying a model, executing the analysis, design, and optimizing the design are all done through this single interface.  A319 aircraft structural repair manual. Graphical displays of the results, including real-time display of time-history displacements, are easily produced. Printed output, to a printer or to a file, for selected elements or for all elements, is also easily produced. This program provides a quantum leap forward in the way models are created, modified, analyzed and designed. The analytical capabilities of ETABS are just as powerful, representing the latest research in numerical techniques and solution algorithms.

The ETABS program is comprised of the following modules all integrated into and controlled by a single Windows-based graphical user interface:. Drafting module for model generation.

Seismic and wind load generation module. Gravity load distribution module for the distribution of vertical loads to columns and beams when plate bending floor elements are not provided as a part of the floor system. Finite element based linear static and dynamic analysis module. Finite element based nonlinear static and dynamic analysis module (available in ETABS Nonlinear version only). Output display and report generation module. Steel frame design module (column, beam and brace). Concrete frame design module (column and beam).

Composite beam design module. Shear wall design module.

Peer review suggested that we mesh our model manually. What should we do? Answer: Automatic and manual will produce comparable results. Manual meshing is much more time consuming. Further, the sophisticated automatic-meshing procedures of Software may even produce a more efficient and reliable mesh.

Controls are available to manually refine an automatic mesh. Mesh refinement may improve the modeling and analysis of regions with stress concentrations, extreme force gradients, member connections, etc. Perhaps you could create two simple models, mesh one automatically and one manually, then demonstrate to the reviewers that the two methods produce comparable results.

This should indicate that it is not necessary to mesh the entire design manually.
