ETABS atau (Extended Three Dimensional Analysis of Building Systems) adalah software rekayasa struktural dan gempa untuk menganalisis dan desain bangunan bertingkat. Dengan tampilan grafis, tools pemodelan berbasis obyek serta proses komputasi struktur non-linear dan dinamis, ETABS dapat menyederhanakan desain struktur bangunan. Dengan ETABS, proses mendesain bangunan yang dahulu dilakukan secara manual dan waktu yang relatif lama, kini dapat dilakukan dengan cepat dan hasil yang akurat.
