Step by Step Analysis and Design of High Rise Building Using ETABS: A complete Guide

Structural engineers are facing the challenge of striving for the most efficient and economical design solution while ensuring that the final design of a building must be serviceable for its intended function, habitable for its occupants and safe over its design life-time. As the our country is the fastest growing country across the globe and need of shelter with higher land cost in major cities like Mumbai, Pune, Delhi, Kolkata, Hyderabad, Surat etc. where further horizontal expansion is not much possible due to space shortage, we are left with the solution of vertical expansion. Engineers, designers and builders are trying to use different materials to their best advantage keeping in view the unique properties of each material Structurally robust and aesthetically pleasing building are being constructed by combining the best properties at individual material & at the same time meeting specific requirements of large span, building load, soil condition, time, flexibility & economy high rise buildings are best suited solution. Also Wind & Earthquake (EQ) engineering should be extended to the design of wind & earthquake sensitive tall buildings.
