In this video, we address slab and beam cracking in ETABS and its impact on long-term deflection. We follow a practical workflow to demonstrate how to define Rebar Objects and compare different reinforcement scenarios to control vertical deformation.
We also clarify the critical workflow for "Cracked Analysis," specifically how to switch between using Reinforcement Overwrites versus the reinforcement calculated by the Concrete Frame Design.
