Assignment # 01 (Due Date = 27th March 2022)
Draw a reinforced concrete multistory building model in ETABS with Following
Details:
Number of Story = 2+Rx0.1= 2+ 75 x 0.1= 9.5 = 10
Bottom Story Height = 10ft
Typical story height = 12ft
Grid Dimensions:
Number of Grids lines both in X and Y direction = 2+Rx0.1= 2+ 75 x 0.1= 9.5 = 10
X Direction Grid Size: 10+RX0.1 = 10+ 75x0.1=17.5=18
Y Direction Grid Size:
01+2+Rx0.1 (For Sec-A)
01+4+Rx0.1 (For Sec-B)
01+6+Rx0.1 (For Sec-C)
01+8+Rx0.1 (For Sec-D)=01+8+75x0.1=16.5=17
Where R is your registration number.
Compressive strength of Concrete:
For Beams / Columns = 5000psi
For Slabs = 3500psi.

Suppose missing data if any.

Also write down step wise procedure for this model and attach with ETABS file
format.

1st Step: After launching ETABS and clicking on “New Model”, Following window
will appear.

Input data according to registration number as shown above. Click on “OK”.

2nd Step: After clicking OK following window will appear. Basic model has been
created.

3rd Step: Go to Define and choose material properties.

Step 4: Go to “Add new material”

Step 4 (b): Adding “rebar” of “grad 40” for “ties”

Step 4 (c): Add “5000 psi concrete” for both concrete columns and beams.

Step 4(d) : Add “3500 psi concrete” for Slab

Step 5: Go to “Define” and from “Section Properties”, choose “Frame Section”

Step 6: From frame section. Choose “Rectangular section” and Define “Beam and
Columns” according to strength defined in previous step.

Step 10: From side bar using the quick draw, “Quick Draw the Slab” as shown :

Step 11: From top menu bar, View in 3D so that it be ensure everything is defined
and drawn at each story.
