3.2.2. Specifications of the Models

To evaluate and analyze all 12 framed tube structures against earthquake and wind load, ETABS software version 9.7.3 was used. This choice was not made because the above software is developed specifically for analysis and design of building structures, but it also has a high ability for static and dynamic analyses regardless of the number of nodes and stories. The models were checked to have the minimum requirements of CSA 2019 code [29]. Circumferential columns and beams dimensions were lessened due to economic targets after every tenth story as the structures increased in height.
