analysis of multi-story buildings(10 to 60 story high)
(OP)
Hello,
Is it possible to analyze and design a multi-story bldg(say 10 to 60 story high) without non-linear analysis. Or should I say, designing a skyscraper(up to 100 story high) using only "ETABS Plus" as the main analysis engine(because ETABS Plus has no non-linear capabilities). Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Regards,

Typically, a height much larger (>>) to the plan dimensions leads to the above.
Analysis and Design of arbitrary cross sections
Reinforcement design to all major codes

sorry if I ask, but when both of you say "non linear analysis" you mean "geometrical non linearity" (P-Delta) right?
Becasue as I know the Non-linear analysis is what it's commonly called Pushover.
Even for a skyscraper you can use just linear analysis with a RSA.
