AEC|BOLT ETABS App is specially developed via ETABS API to transfer the model generated in AEC|BOLT Building Design Suite to the commonly used FEA software ETABS.
Transferred model information is constituted of:
Nodes
Frames
Shells
Material properties and assignments
Section properties and assignments
Pier and spandrel definitions
Load definitions, load assignments and load combinations
Incorporating ETABS to your design procedure requires downloading the corresponding .dll (dynamic local library) file to your local machine.
Downloading & Installation AEC|BOLT ETABS App:
See AEC|BOLT Building Design Suite App For CSI ETABS v17
Making sure that you have the .dll file on your computer, then you are ready to pass to the ETABS environment.
