Introduction0:44
Gain familiarity with the ETABS software through this free, beginner-friendly course that covers the basics for no experience and prepares you for more advanced courses.
How to Speed up to Slow down the Lecture speed?0:18

How to Download the Software0:14
Introduction To User Interface2:10
Opening A New Model2:53
Defining The Grids5:46
Define grids in ETABS by configuring x, y, and g planes and editing the grid system. Place grids for a 6 m span beam with a midspan 20 kN load.
Modelling of Beam Method -15:10
Modelling of Beam Method -20:49
Assigning The Support0:40
Application of Load1:26
Analyzing The Beam2:06
Analyze a beam in etabs using load patterns and zero self weight, generate shear force and moment diagrams, run the analysis, and review the deformed and animated response.
Generate SFD and BMD.3:44
Analyze The Given Frame

Understanding The Structure2:05
Defining The Grids2:39
Define and modify grid systems in ETABS by editing story data, setting base and story elevations, and adding grids at zero and six meters to form the plan.
Defining The Materials1:45
Defining The Sections5:55
Modelling The Structure5:17
Defining Load Patterns3:41
Define load patterns by setting dead load, live load, partition load, floor finish, and roof load; ETABS auto-calculates self-weight and applies them across all stories after selecting a design code.
Assigning The Loads7:52
Assigning The Joints0:34
Defining The Mass Source2:24
Assigning The Mesh2:06
Mesh the slabs into smaller elements, typically 10 by 10, to ensure load transfer to beams and columns; select slabs, assign mesh, and define floor diaphragm.
Defining Load Combinations2:19
Analyze The Model1:40
Designing The Structure1:22
Checking The Structure For Failure2:14
Redesigning The Failed Members3:04

Requirements

Basic Knowledge of Computer.
