ETABS Cloud Viewer

ETABS® Cloud Viewer is a companion app to the desktop version of the building analysis and design program, ETABS. The app allows users to view their ETABS models and analysis results directly from a smartphone or tablet. It enables engineers and managers on the go to make quick, collaborative, and informed decisions about a building project from anywhere in the world. Users can assess the geometry and behavior of ETABS models by viewing plan, elevation, and extruded views, as well as mode shapes, structural deformations, and force diagrams produced by any number of loading conditions, including wind and earthquake. A CSI Cloud account is required to use the ETABS® Cloud Viewer.

Application / Usage:

• View mode shapes, structural deformations and force diagrams produced by various loading conditions, including wind and earthquake

Target Users:

• Project managers for making quick, collaborative decisions on building structures

• Structural engineers who want to study the behavior of a building model, such as viewing the period of a building
