The document provides instructions for a student to model a 2-story reinforced concrete building in ETABS using their registration number to determine dimensions, with steps including defining materials, section properties, and drawing columns, beams, and slabs according to the specified dimensions and properties. The student is asked to model the building to the provided specifications, with concrete strengths of 5000 psi for beams and columns and 3500 psi for slabs.

ASSIGNMENT - 1

COMPUTER AIDED ANALYSIS AND DESIGN - LAB

PROBLEM STATEMENT
Draw a reinforced concrete multistory building model in ETABS

SUBMITTED TO : ENGR. USMAN RASHEED

REG NO: 19-CE-107
SEC: C

CIVIL ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT

UET TAXILA
ASSIGNMENT DETAILS:

Number of Storys:

Number of Story = 2+Rx0.1 (Round off number of story e.g. If R =129 then Number of story
=2 + 129x0.1 = 15)

Story Height:

Bottom Story Height = 10ft

Typical story height = 12ft

Grid Dimensions:

Number of Grids lines both in X and Y direction = 2+Rx0.1

X Direction Grid Size: 10+RX0.1 (Round off it.)

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)

Where R is your registration number.

Compressive strength of Concrete:

For Beams / Columns = 5000psi

For Slabs = 3500psi.

Suppose missing data if any.


CALCULATIONS:

Number of Story:

Number of Story = 2+ R x 0.1

= 2 + 107 x 0.1

= 12.7  13

Story Height:

Bottom Story Height = 10 ft

Typical Story Height = 12 ft

Grid Dimensions:

Number of Grids lines both in X and Y direction = 2+Rx0.1

= 2+107x0.1

= 12.7  13

X Direction Grid Size = 10+RX0.1

= 10+107x0.1

=20.7  21

Y Direction Grid Size = 01+6+Rx0.1 (For Sec-C)

=01+6+107x0.1

=17.7  18
PROCEDURE

1. Creating New Model


Open ETABS and click on New Model, a Model Initialization Window will open. In this
window, select Use Built in Settings Option and select OK.

2. Defining Story and Grid Dimensions


A window of New Model Quick Template will open. In this window, we will insert our
calculated data as Story Dimensions >
Number of stories = 16,
Typical Story Height = 12 ft, Bottom Story Height = 10 ft and
Grid dimensions >
Number of Grids lines in X Direction = 16, Number of Grids lines in Y Direction = 16,
Spacing of Grids in X Direction = 14, Spacing of Grids in X Direction = 21
3. Defining Materials
Now we have to define Materials. Go to Menu bar and click Define > Material
Properties. A Define Material window will open.
For 5000 psi Concrete

In Define Materials window, click Add New Material > Region : United states > Material
Type : Concrete > Standard : Customary > Grade: fc’ 5000 psi

Material Property Data window will open. Change Material name : 5000 psi > Click
Modify/Show Material Property Design Data.. option
Material Property Design Data window will open. Change Specified Concrete
Compressive Strength fc’ = 5000 psi and Grade = fc’ 5000 psi > OK.
For 3500 psi Concrete

Add copy of material > Material Name : 3500 psi > Modify/Show Material Property Design
Data > Material Name : 3500 psi > Grade : fc’ 3500 psi > Specified concrete Compressive
Strength : 3500 > OK
For Grade 40 Steel

Add New Material > Material Type : Rebar > Standard : ASTM A615 > Grade : 40 > OK

In Material Property Data window


4. Defining Section Properties
Define > Section Properties > Frame Sections
Frame Property Window
Add New Property

Frame Property Shape Type Window

Shape Type > Concrete Rectangular

Frame Section Property Data Window


For Column

Frame Section Property Data Window

Property Name : Col 24” x 24 “ > Material : 5000 psi > Section Dimensions : 24” both >
Modify/Show Rebars > Design Type: Concrete Column > Longitudinal bars: Grade 60 >
Confinement bars: Grade 40 > Longitudinal Bar Size: #6 > Corner Bar Size and Area: #6 >
Confinement Bar Size and Area: #4 > OK
For Beam

Frame Section Property Data Window

Property Name : Beam 24” x 24“ > Material : 5000 psi > Section Dimensions : 24” x 24” >
Modify/Show Rebars > Design Type: Beam > Longitudinal bars: Grade 60 > Confinement
bars: Grade 40 > OK
5. Defining Slab Sections
Define > Section Properties > Slab Sections
Slab Property Window
Add New Property > Property Name: Slab 6” > Slab Material: 3500 psi > Slab
thickness: 6” > OK
6. Drawing Columns
Draw > Draw Beams/Columns/Brace Objects > Quick Draw Column
Bottom Left Properties of Object Window
Select Property: Column 15” x 15”
Select all stories from the bottom right > Draw columns
7. Drawing Beams
Draw > Draw Beams/Columns/Brace Objects > Quick Draw Beams/Column
Bottom Left Properties of Object Window
Select Property: Beam 15” x 18” > Draw Beams
8. Drawing Slab
Draw > Draw Floor/Wall Objects > Quick Draw Floor/Wall
Bottom Left Properties of Object Window
Select Property: Slab 6” > Draw Slabs
Remove slabs from the base story
9. Model
