ETABS provides an unequaled suite of tools for structural engineers designing buildings, whether they are working on one-story industrial structures or the tallest commercial high-rises. Comprehensive and customizable reports are available for all analysis and design output, and schematic construction drawings of framing plans, schedules, details, and cross-sections may be generated for concrete and steel structures. Models may be realistically rendered, and all results can be shown directly on the structure. Design of steel and concrete frames (with automated optimization), composite beams, composite columns, steel joists, and concrete and masonry shear walls is included, as is the capacity check for steel connections and base plates. The state-of-the-art SAPFire 64-bit solver allows extremely large and complex models to be rapidly analyzed, and supports nonlinear modeling techniques such as construction sequencing and time effects (e.g., creep and shrinkage). CAD drawings can be converted directly into ETABS models or used as templates onto which ETABS objects may be overlaid. Creation of models has never been easier – intuitive drawing commands allow for the rapid generation of floor and elevation framing. From the start of design conception through the production of schematic drawings, ETABS integrates every aspect of the engineering design process. Incorporating 40 years of continuous research and development, this latest 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.
#Sap2000 v17 kickass software#
The innovative and revolutionary new ETABS is the ultimate integrated software package for the structural analysis and design of buildings. ETABS v17 is available as a 64-bit version only in order to provide better performance. Changes from 17.0.0 (Released ) – The version number has been changed to v17.0.1 for a new minor release. ETABS 17.0.1 Enhancements: – Chinese steel frame design now supports the 2018 requirements for GB50017-2017, GB50011-2010 and JGJ99-2015. True to our tradition, we are again advancing the state-of-the-art in structural engineering technology with innovative developments and enhancements. (CSI), is pleased to announce the availability of ETABS 2017 version 17.0.1.
