  You need to use a plugin to do this. I've used [the architect](https://github.com/Pennebaker/craftcms-thearchitect) for doing exactly this in the past. Just export the section and entry types you want to duplicate, rename the section in the json file, delete everything except for the section and entry type definitions, and import.
