CSI ETABS Course - 05 - Center of Mass and Center of Rigidity

In this tutorial, we dive into the concepts of Center of Mass and Center of Rigidity in the context of structural analysis using CSI ETABS. These two fundamental concepts are essential for understanding the dynamic behavior of buildings and their response to lateral forces such as wind and earthquakes. In this session, you'll learn: The difference between the Center of Mass (COM) and Center of Rigidity (COR) How to calculate and locate the COM and COR in ETABS The significance of these points in ensuring the stability and seismic performance of a structure Practical tips on interpreting the results and how they affect the design process Whether you are new to ETABS or looking to refine your skills, this course will provide you with the knowledge to enhance your structural analysis and design. 1- Center of Mass (CM) and Center of rigidity (CR) Excel Sheet Download: https://civilmdc.com/2020/03/09/cente...
