you can find all the literature about the etabs and other stuff,,,

well for the solid slabs to model on etabs........generally mesh size is smaller of span/10 or 1000mm......for very very accurate results....but it will take a long time to solve.....structures with 3000 mm meshing also show good results with less time and showing equivalent results as compared with 1000m meshing...

for more information do read ATKINS ETABS MANUAL in my web site....
