Introduction:
Etabs is a 3(three) dimensional building structural and earthquake-resistant designing software that uses FEM(Finite Element Method). Etabs was developed by Computer and Structure Inc(CSI). Hence the name CSI ETABS. ETABS stands for Extended Three Dimensional Analysis of Building System. CSI has a lot of products and among them, ETABS is one of them.
It is a very sophisticated modern software solution for Civil Engineers which helps Engineers to solve simple as well as modern complex structures with ease due to its user-friendly interface and easy learning curve. There are a few structural designing software in the market but Etabs has gain momentum due to its efficiency in designing low as well as high rise buildings. The Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world which is situated in Dubai has been designed with this software proving its efficiency, ability and accuracy. Designing structure with this software gives us an economical and reliable design.
