should show a distinct, sharp spike in mass due to thicker slabs or transfer girders.

In ETABS, the is a fundamental output table used to verify the "Seismic Weight" ( etabs mass summary by story

Ensure "Self-Weight" and "Specified Load Patterns" are correctly toggled.

Always double-check your current unit system in the bottom right corner of the ETABS window. Mass is reported in mass units (e.g., Toncap T o n ), not force units ( The physical weight of structural elements and permanent

for specialized structural elements.

Failure to audit the mass summary is a common source of hidden errors in performance-based design. Toncap T o n )

Seismic lateral forces are directly proportional to mass (
