How To Design A Reinforced Concrete Building In Midas Gen

This construction tutorial is built with a view to providing detailed guidelines on the procedure of designing a reinforced concrete building based on floor loads, seismic loads and wind loads. This tutorial is brought to you by the french engineer Cyprien Rusu.

Requirements

To produce this useful tutorial the author has used Midas Gen 2015, an integrated structural analysis software.

The Methodology of this tutorial

Response spectrum analysis
P-Delta analysis

Usage of Seismic Design Data as follows:

Dual system (special reinforced concrete structural walls with special moment frame) in the crosswise direction.

Special moment frame in the longitudinal direction

Allocated to a high seismic zone
