Considerable time and expense have gone into the development and
documentation of ETABS. The program has been thoroughly tested and
used. In using this program, however, the user accepts and understand
that no warranty is expressed or implied by the developers or distributors
on accuracy or the reliability of the program.
The user must understand the assumptions of the program and must
independently verify the results.
In other words, it becomes the structural engineers responsibility to check
the ETABS results via simple assumptions and hand calculations.

ETABS allows the user to:
Create and modify computer models.
Create structural elements (columns, slabs, shear-walls, beams).
Analyze multiple scenarios and conditions, such as,
Earthquake and wind loads,
Sequential loading of construction,
When the analysis is run, it goes from an object based to an element
based model,
The analysis consist of frames, joints, linked with shell elements.
Design and optimize multistory buildings (steel/composite, concrete frame and
shear-walls.)
All these steps through a single graphic user interface (GUI).

Initial steps to model a building.
1. Define the buildings geometry (its footprint, including the adjacent
structures, establish the gridlines, etc).
2. Consider the implications of the geographic location of the building.
3. Establish the codes, analysis procedures and design criteria to be applied
(for example, ASCE 7, UBC, IBC2000, Florida Building Code, ACI 318).
4. Define the loads (dead, live, reduction factors, wind and seismic).
5. Choose the structural elements, such as columns, shear-walls, etc.
6. Define the working units (for example, lb-in, kips-ft, etc.).
7. Define the various concrete strengths (eg, 4000 psi, 8000 psi, etc.).
8. Define the modulus of elasticity for concrete.
9. Define and create columns sizes and strengths for all different levels.
10. Define wall strengths and thickness.
11. Define steel strength and modulus of elasticity.
12. Place columns and shear-walls upon the gridlines.
