    would any one help we why this idiot program asks for omega factor ?????

    system over-strength , omega in ETABS-2013

    Dear all, Etabs2013 asks for system over-strength factor when assigning seismic forces using ASCE-7-05,the program mentioned that this value is used solely in design. Referring to (ASCE 7-05 Section 12.3.3.3) Required strength of columns supporting discontinuous vertical elements the design of...

    Importance factor for wind loads Asce-7-10 Etabs2013

    i found the answer, referring to ASCE-7-10 Table 1.5-2 Importance Factors by Risk Category of Buildings and Other Structures for Snow, Ice, and Earthquake Loads Iw FOR WIND = 1 FOR ALL RISK CATEGORIES

    Importance factor for wind loads Asce-7-10 Etabs2013

    Dear all please help me to find an answer to my question , maybe i miss-understand something.

    Importance factor for wind loads Asce-7-10 Etabs2013

    Dear all, [highlight #FCE94F]The wind speed in ASCE-7-10 is given at the strength level value. This differs from previous editions of the ASCE Standard where service level values were used. ASCE 7-05 design wind speeds are multiplied by (1.6)0.5 to convert to ASCE 7-10 design wind speeds. ASCE...

    base shear

    also the answer to yasir1989 about how the program calculate base shear case of response spectrum analysis can be found in this link: http://www.mediafire.com/download/iokmw53hajal7ba/answer.rar

    base shear

    dear inggelu, please note the followings: if you go to define > static load case > dead load self multiplier = 0 (in this case the mass that was calculated based on (from self and specified mass and loads) will not be doubled at all as you assumed,it will be doubled if the previous multiplier...

    accidental eccentricity

    Dear yasir1989, in my previous post i showed you how the program calculate total base shear i used SRSS method to show you the procedure in simple way , if you want to use cqc follow the same steps and apply the equation of cqc in my previous excel sheet (which is more complicated) my...

    base shear

    this link will show mr/yasier1989 problem http://www.mediafire.com/download/6u48pysmbbl79g5/3d-new-modified.rar summation of section cut forces for all frames as shown on the model under response spectrum analysis doesn't equal to total base shear given by etabs.. i tried hard to find a...

    Here it is ... http://www.mediafire.com/download/6u48pysmbbl79g5/3d-new-modified.rar don't forget if you find an answer to tell it to me Best regards..

    accidental eccentricity

    Dear yasir1989 it seems that you are right (your case happened when using response spectrum analysis , but if you did a static one no such problem will occur,anyway i modified section cuts in your model to get values at each frame , also i apply a static seismic force in x-direction to show my...

    accidental eccentricity

    Dear yasir1989: it seems that you use a response spectrum file under the name c/program files(x86)/computer and structures /sap2000 v15/spectra/yasir4.text which is not uploaded with the Etabs model, anyway i hope you got my idea in my latest post , if not, please upload the response spectrum...

    accidental eccentricity

    Dear yasir1989 its better to compress your Etabs file (using winrar) before uploading it because i can't download, any way i guess that i understand your problem so please do the followings: when selecting one frame to get its amount of base shear due to seismic force, select all frame members...

    upload the Etabs file

    accidental eccentricity

    Dear yasir1989, use section cut method to calculate base shear it is the only method that gives the same values as base shear steps as follows: After running the model from the menu select > by story level > story 1 from the menu assign > group names > add new group from the menu define >...
