5. Assigning Support Condition :

Set Base floor Plan view in left window  Set Column points (with mouse).
From Main menu AssignJoint/ point  Restraints (supports) Select FixedOk.

6. Defining Loads :

Gravity loads (Dead & Live load)

Note:
For Self weight multiplier will be 1 for slabs, beams and columns of dead load. For
other loads, it will be zero. Dead Load of Beams, Columns and slabs are
automatically calculated by ETABS as per Section Properties and Material properties
that we have assigned already for dead load calculation.
Defining Load Patterns:
Main menu Define Load Patterns.

By Default the screen will show only Dead and Live Load. If you want to add any
other loads like Wind or earthquake loads, give a name under load and choose type
and click add New Load button.
Defining Load cases:
Main menu Define load Cases.

Defining Load Combinations:

Main menu Define  Load Combinations.

Click Add New Combination button. Give Name and Factor load as 1.50 for
DL x 1.5 + LL x 1.5  Click Ok.
Loads on Slab:
Keep Plan view in Storey 5. Choose one Storey in bottom right.
Main menu  AssignShell Loads Uniform .

Roof load : Terrace Water proofing load =2.50 KN/m2

Live Load for Roof=1.50KN/m2
Choose Dead in Load Pattern, give 2.50 KN/m2 as Load. Choose Gravity as
Direction, choose Add to Existing Loads.

Select all slabs just by clicking on each slab as belowClick Apply Ok.

Now again select all slabs. Choose Live load as 1.50 KN/m2 ApplyOk.
Floor Loads:
Floor finish = 1.0 KN/m2
Live Load =4.0 KN/m2
Keep the Plan view as Storey 1. Choose Similar Stories button in bottom right.
Main menu  AssignShell Loads Uniform.

Select all slabs just by clicking on each slab and give the Load value as 1.0 KN/m2
ApplyOk.

Similarly give Live load as 4.0 KN/m2 for all other floor slab.
Wall loads on Beam:
Parapet wall =5 KN/m2

Keep Plan view in Storey 5. Choose One Storey button in bottom right. Select Outer
beams just by clicking on each beams.
Main menu  AssignFrame Loads Distributed.

Choose load as Dead, Give Uniform load as 5 KN/m . Choose Add to existing Loads.
Direction: Gravity ApplyOk.
Wall on Floor beams:
External wall Load 230 mm thick =14.50 KN/m
Internal Wall Load 1150mm thick =6.60 KN/m
Keep Plan view in Storey 2. Choose Similar Storey button in bottom right (For
storey 3, Storey 4). Select Outer beams just by clicking on each beams.
Main menu  AssignFrame Loads Distributed.
Choose Load pattern as Dead, Uniform Load=14.50KN/m, select Add to Existing
Loads ApplyOk. Similarly select inner beams just by clicking on each Beams.
Apply Uniform Load =6.60 KN/m ApplyOk.
Wall Load on Plinth Beams:
External Wall load =20.5 KN/m Internal Wall Load = 10.20 KN/m
Keep Plan view as storey 1 with One storey option in bottom right. Select outer
beams and assign Dead load for Plinth beam as 20.5 KN/m and select inner beam
and assign Dead Load for plinth beam as 10.20 KN/m similar to roof beam on
Parapet wall.
Concentrated or Point load Due to Secondary beams:
Keep Storey 1 in Plan view, choose Similar stories button in bottom right (For
Storey 2, storey 3, Storey 4). Select all the Transverse Beam of 8.40m length just
by clicking on the beams.
Main menu AssignFrame Loads  Point.

Choose Load as Dead Load as Forces, Choose Add to existing loads, give Load
distance as 2.2m, Load as 35.14 KN. Choose Absolute Distance from end 1
ApplyOk.
In the similar way give Live load as 12.28 KN as concentrated Load on all floor
beams of transverse beams.
