Description
I have put together this course with the aim of helping you to understand the concepts and technicals behind the structural design of buildings using the software Etabs. Throughout this course, we will be going through a unique office building project that is incepted based on actual real-life structures that I have worked on across Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Australia.
I will take you through modeling the building in etabs and expand on finite element analysis concepts throughout to help you develop a deeper understanding of the fundamentals behind the black screen. We will then define our gravity as well as lateral loads on the building, namely wind and earthquake, both code-static forces and dynamic response spectrum.
We will verify the analysis results via simple hand calculations and checks to common rule of thumbs for buildings design, and finally, design the columns and the walls in the building. I will be going through the design process for the first time on this project with you through the course, with unfiltered decision making and commentary on my thoughts and rationale behind the design decisions I am making, taking into account things like including industry expectations, common practices, and rationalization in design. Finally, we will present our report of the detailed design using etabs report function.
You will need to have access to etabs software on your computer to practice throughout the course. You can request for evaluation version from the CSI website
