SUPER-ETABS: An enhanced version of the ETABS programs
Abstract
A modified version of the ETABS (2) computer program, which is used for the linear structural analysis of buildings subjected to static loads and dynamic earthquake loads, is documented. Efficient model formulation and problem solution is achieved by idealizing the building as a system of frame and shear wall substructures inter-connected by floor diaphragms which are rigid in their own plane. The extended capabilities of the enhanced program are explained.
