Etabs 2013 v13.1.3 - Integrated Analysis, Design and Drafting of Building Systems

ETABS 2013 v13.1.3 Enhancements

Significant enhancements include:

• Concrete frame design and shear wall design have been added for the Hong Kong CP 2013 code.
• Steel frame design using the AISC 360-10 code now provides an option to allow Notional Load cases to be included in design combinations with wind, seismic and response spectrum cases.
• Automated wind loading has been added according to the Australian and New Zealand code AS/NZS 1170.2-2011.
• Automated wind loading using the diaphragm-extents option for the ASCE 7-02, ASCE 7- 05 and ASCE 7-10 codes that now allows automatic determination of the wind pressure coefficients (windward and leeward) based on the building size.
• Frame section properties have been enhanced to separate steel shapes from concrete shapes for more detailed handling of rebar.
• The mass source now allows separate control for the self-mass from elements and added masses, in addition to the use of load patterns. Previously self-mass and added mass were considered together.
• New database tables have been added that provide pier and spandrel section property information.
• Customization of the keyboard shortcuts for the various menu items is now available.
• Multiple enhancements have been made for the import and export of IFC files.
• Other minor enhancements.
• Concrete frame design and shear wall design using the AS 3600-09/NZS 3101-06 codes have been updated for Amendment No. 3 in 2011 affecting the seismic load combinations.
• Multiple enhancements have been made to shear wall design using the Eurocode 2-2004 code for the uniform-reinforcing and section-designer section options.
• The output table Modal Direction Factors, primarily used for Chinese design, has been enhanced to include the contribution of all mass in the structure, not just the mass in rigid diaphragm constraints.
• Database tables can now be exported to an XML file that can be opened by Microsoft Access, allowing the export to Access on machines that do not have it installed.
• The loads from staged-construction load cases can now be exported to SAFE.
• Multiple enhancements have been made to the import of .DXF files for floor plans, 3D models, and grid systems.
• Multiple enhancements have been made to the import and export of IFC 4 files.
• Multiple enhancements have been made to the import of SDNF files.
• Multiple enhancements have been made to the import of CIS/2 files.
• Many additional Open API functions have been implemented.
