Structural Analysis and Design of Residential
Abstract : ETABS offers unmatched 3D object based modeling and visualization tools,
blazingly fast linear and nonlinear analytical power, sophisticated and comprehensive design
capabilities for a wide-range of materials, and insightful graphic displays, reports, and schematic
drawings that allow users to quickly and easily decipher and understand analysis and design
results. From the start of design conception through the production of schematic drawings,
ETABS integrates every aspect of the engineering design process. Creation of models has never
been easier - intuitive drawing commands allow for the rapid generation of floor and elevation
framing. In the present work a G+5 Residential building is analyzed in Etabs considering both
gravity loads as well as lateral loads as it is a high rise building. The various IS codes considered
are IS 875 Part 1 for Dead loads, IS 875 Part 2 for Live loads
