The column must support additional moment created by the column axial load acting on the deformed column, also known as second-order moments. There are two types of second-order moments related to the P-delta effects shown in the attached figure : 1 second-order moments due to translation of the column ends…

How to Do Errorless Modeling in E-tabs?
HOW TO DO ERRORLESS MODELING IN ETABS? Many structural engineers have faced errors in modeling. It is a common problem that comes while modeling very complex modeling like the model with a different floor plan. 1. WHY ERRORS IS OCCURS? ETABS is sensitive software. if the beams or columns…
Why do we use diaphragm in ETABS
The main purpose of using diaphragm is to transfer the lateral load to the system. This will only be used when you are having slabs but when your model doesn’t have slab then the lateral forces needs to be applied at the joint Slab possess very high resistance to lateral…
Jeddah Tower
Jeddah Tower was calculated in five different Structural Software Programs to be sure about results. The tallest building in the world is one thousand meters high and was specified in reinforced concrete with an 85 MPa strength. Which Structural Analysis Software does make you feel safer? How do you calibrate…
