This document presents an example of analysis design of slab using ETABS. This example examines a simple single story building, which is regular in plan and elevation. It is examining and compares the calculated ultimate moment from CSI ETABS & SAFE with hand calculation. Moment coefficients were used to calculate the ultimate moment. However it is good practice that such hand analysis methods are used to verify the output of more sophisticated methods.
Also, this document contains simple procedure (step-by-step) of how to design solid slab according to Eurocode 2.The process of designing elements will not be revolutionised as a result of using Eurocode 2. Due to time constraints and knowledge, I may not be able to address the whole issues.
Book for Beginners, RCC Design by ETABSYousuf Dinar
Advancement of softwares is main cause behind comparatively quick and simple
design while avoiding complexity and time consuming manual procedure. However
mistake or mislead could be happened during designing the structures because of not
knowing the proper procedure depending on the situation. Design book based on
manual or hand design is sometimes time consuming and could not be good aids with
softwares as several steps are shorten during finite element modeling. This book may
work as a general learning hand book which bridges the software and the manual
design properly. The writers of this book used linear static analysis under BNBC and
ACI code to generate a six story residential building which could withstand wind load
of 210 kmph and seismic event of that region. The building is assumed to be designed
in Dhaka, Bangladesh under RAJUK rules to get legality of that concern organization.
For easy and explained understanding the book chapters are oriented in 2 parts. Part A
is concern about modeling and analysis which completed in only one chapter. Part B
is organized with 8 chapters. From chapter 1 to 7 the writers designed the model
building and explained with references how to consider during design so that
creativity of readers could not be threated. Chapter 8 is dedicated for estimation. As a
whole the book will help the readers to experience a building construction related all
facts and how to progress in design. Although the volume I is limited to linear static
analysis, upcoming volume will eventually consider dynamic facts to perform
dynamic analysis. Implemented equations are organized in the appendix section for
easy memorizing.
BNBC and other codes are improving and expending day by day, by covering new
and improved information as civil engineering is a vast field to continue the research.
Before designing something or taking decision judge the contemporary codes and
choose data, equations, factors and coefficient from the updated one.
Book for Beginners series is basic learning book of YDAS outlines. Here only
rectangular grid system modeling and a particular model is shown. Round shape grid
is avoided to keep the study simple. No advanced analysis is described and it is kept
simple for beginners. Only two way slab is elaborated with direct design method,
avoiding other procedures. In case of beam, only flexural and shear designs are made.
T- Beam, L- Beam or other shapes are not shown as rectangular beam was enough for
this study. Bi-axial column and foundation design is not shown. During column and
foundation design only pure axial load is considered. Use of interaction diagram is not
shown in manual design. Load centered isolated and combined footing designs are
shown, avoiding eccentric loading conditions. Pile and pile cap design, Mat
foundation design, strap footing design and sand pile concept are not included in this

4. What is a KC?
The role of Knowledge Management (KM) …
“a city that aims at a knowledge based
development, by continuously encouraging
the Knowledge Management(KM) processes”.
This can be achieved through the continuous
interaction between its knowledge agents
themselves and at the same time between
them and other cities' knowledge agents“.
(Ergazakis et al., 2006, pp. 65).

5. What are the Knowledge Agents?
The role of Knowledge Management (KM) …
A ‘knowledge agent’ is any entity (human,
organization, company, university,
technology-park, etc.) that can manage
knowledge.
• Universities
• Government (Municipalities)
• The Private Sector
• The Community

10. Statement of the Problem
Collaboration between Knowledge Agents
• Active engagement of all involved agents is
lacking.
• It is difficult to create a “knowledge tank” or
“knowledge storage” contributed to and
accessible by all K-agents.
• In addition, while “explicit knowledge” is easy
to transfer across time and space; “tacit
knowledge” is much more difficult to transfer.

11. Statement of the Problem
Collaboration between Knowledge Agents
• The City of Jeddah is no exception when it
comes to the culture of knowledge exchange
and knowledge agent interactions.
• Most collaboration exists within a one or
two-way environments.
• Multi-directional collaborations might take
place in the limited context of a one day
workshop.
12. Statement of the Problem
Collaboration between Knowledge Agents
• Within the educational context, collaboration
is limited in most cases to the traditional
summer training or internship model.
• Professionally, the typical paradigm takes
place where faculty members offer
consultation to government agencies and the
private sector on an individual case by case
basis.

16. Role of K-Agents
1- Knowledge Creation Institutions
• The ranking of universities is influenced by
the knowledge creation process; including:
o Quantity and quality of journal articles
published
o Awards and patents
o Student graduation rate
o Research expenditure, and
o Number of start-up companies
generated by the research and
development activities .
17. Role of K-Agents
1- Knowledge Creation Institutions
• The role of knowledge creation institutions in
initiating and developing successful KCs is
becoming very evident., e.g. Barcelona,
Stockholm and Manchester.
• These institutions are the ‘engines of
innovation, change and economic growth’.

1- Knowledge Creation Institutions
• In Jeddah, King Abdul Aziz University (KAU),
King Abdullah University of Science and
Technology (KAUST), the Hajj research centre
and many private knowledge creation
institutions all exist.
• They lack the coordination amongst
themselves to benefit the society at a
maximum capacity.

19. Role of K-Agents
2- Government Agencies
• Ergazakis, et al. (2006) argued that there
should be:
o a sense of social urgency for change,
o “societal will” translated into “political
will”, and
o unlimited support from the upper tiers
of government.
• In most successful KCs initiatives, the local
government agencies takes the responsibility
of the initiatives, and coordinates urban and
economic development activities in
conjunction with all K-agents.

2- Government Agencies
• Examples of the success of government
agencies are the initiatives in:
1. Dublin, Ireland; “Delft, The
Knowledge City”,
2. Denmark’s “Mind Lab” initiative,
and
3. The initiatives of the Dutch
Government. Dr. Khaled Ali Youssef

21. Role of K-Agents
2- Government Agencies
• In Jeddah, the ‘societal will’ has not yet
developed and need to developed parallel to
the ‘KC initiative’.
• The encouraging signs are there to be seen in
the JSP (2009) as listed below:
o Attain a high quality of life for all,
o Achieve and maintain sustainable
development,
o Become a dynamic international,
commercial and tourism centre, and
o Become a cultural centre for the
Muslim world.
22. Role of K-Agents
3- The Role of the Private Sector
• Carrillo (2006) argues the private sector to be
one of the most productive assets that
contribute to the KC economy.
• The role of the private sector comes after the
development of a strategic framework for the
KC in its initiative.
• Barcelona, Dublin, Shanghai and Singapore
can be considered an example.

23. Role of K-Agents
3- The Role of the Private Sector
• Jeddah Development and Urban
Regeneration Company (JDURC) which was
established in 2006, is a major agent in
facilitating the transformation of the City of
Jeddah.
• JDURIC’s objective is to improve the quality
of experience for Jeddah’s residents and
visitors, and improve the local economy by
providing a platform for Public-Private
Partnerships (PPPs).
24. Role of K-Agents
4- The Role of the Community
• A KC should enable and foster the flow of
knowledge moments
• A “knowledge moment” is a spontaneous or
planned human experience in which
knowledge can be created, exchanged and
transformed into a new form.
• A knowledge moment happens at the
intersection of people, places, processes and
purposes. Dr. Khaled Ali Youssef

Slide 24/44
25. Role of K-Agents
4- The Role of the Community
• In a culture where dialogue is common,
‘knowledge moments’ can be easily enabled.
• Creative people and “high human capital” are
the “critical resource” for knowledge
moments.
• Most successful KCs are investing in their
human capital, promoting individuals to
become “knowledge citizens”.

26. Role of K-Agents
4- The Role of the Community
• In the City of Jeddah, there are many
constraints in creating 'knowledge citizens‘,
including:
o There is no KC initiative.
o No agencies to drive the efforts.
o The networks responsible for
knowledge exchange are weak.
o Thus, the creation of the 'knowledge
citizens' is a very challenging task.

31. A Collaboration Model for the Knowledge
Management in the City of Jeddah
Guidelines
1- A Strategic Vision to Guide the Collaboration
• The starting point is a strategic vision and
development plans to design and implement
a KC
“Without a sound strategy and a guiding vision,
attempts to transform urban regions into
creative urban regions and cities into knowledge
cities would likely result in failure”

Management in the City of Jeddah
Guidelines
2- Involvement of All Stakeholders
• Each agent has its own perspective on how
and what direction the city or the region
should follow in becoming a KC.
• This vision will identify the nature and level of
participation of each agent.
• The representatives of these stakeholders
would be the “associates” Dr. Khaled Ali Youssef

3- A Body to Promote the Collaboration
• Ergazakis et al. (2010) examined 12 successful
KCs coming to the conclusion that there
should be agencies/bodies to promote the
development of knowledge-based regions.
• Representatives from many authorities have
to be under one roof – ‘The Body’.
• This body would be responsible for creating
the environment, structures, and strategies
needed for collaboration

Design and Implementation
• A body has to be created. The goals of the
body should include:
o The Vision of “Jeddah’s KC Initiative”
o Identifying the Goals and Objectives
o Creation of Implementation Plans
o Creation of Administrative Structures
o Creation of Monitoring and
Performance Measuring Agencies
o Devise “Knowledge Storage Tanks” –
methods and forms
o Devise “Knowledge Exchange Programs”
(specifically for tacit knowledge)
o Promotion of the initiative locally,
nationally, regionally and internationally

Discussion and Conclusions
• The proposed model can is a mechanism for
Jeddah to reinvent itself as a KC.
• While many models suggest the political and
societal will to be the starting point, in the
case of Jeddah a body is needed to champion
the idea and bring different agents together.
• Without a “champion”, the spread of the
philosophy, its understanding and
implementation will surely delay the
development of the city towards this
direction.

Discussion and Conclusions
• In the review of the existing situation of
Jeddah, we have come to the realization that
some agents are more developed .
• The “Knowledge Creation” bodies appeared
to be more developed. They are thus
suggested to lead ‘the body’ that will direct
the KC initiative.
• The model represents a starting point for
further discussion, analysis and testing. It is
the first step in creating an initiative rather
than the first step in becoming a KC.
