PROJECT : 41 kWp SOLAR PV PLANT AT CONDOR CASSIA, TRIVENDRUM, KERALA
DOC TITLE : DESIGN LOAD CALCULATIONS FOR MMS 2Px4
DEAD LOAD CALCULATIONS :
Panel Size L = 1976 mm
B = 990 mm
T = 35 mm
Each Panel Weight W = 22.50 Kgs
Total Number of Panels = 4 Nos.
Total Weight of Panels = 90.00 Kgs
No. of Supporting Purlins IN STAAD MODEL LENGHT = 2 Nos.
Load on each Purlin due to module weight IS 4.2 M = 45.00 kgs
Length of Each purlin = 4.06 M
UDL on each Purlin due to module weight = 0.11 kN/m
Add 10 % for connections = 0.12 kN/m UNI - GY (-)
WIND LOAD ON SOLAR FRAME STRUCTURE AS PER IS:875-2015 Part - 3
Basic Wind Speed As per Input Vb = 170 Kmph
Vb = 47.2 m/sec
Vz = Vb x k1 x k2 x k3 x k4 m/sec
Design Wind Speed where K1 = 1.07 As per Clause 6.3.1, Pg 7
K2 = 1.20 As per Clause 6.3.2, Pg 8
K3 = 1 As per Clause 6.3.3, Pg 8
K4 = 1.15 As per Clause 6.3.4, Pg 9
Vz = 69.728 M/sec

Wind Pressure Pz = 0.6 x Vz2 As per Clause 5.4

= 2917.22 N/M2
= 2.92 KN/M2
Kd = 1.00 Cl 7.2 IS875 P3- 2015
Ka = 1.00 Cl 7.2 IS875 P3- 2015
Kc = 0.90 Cl 7.2 IS875 P3- 2015
Design wind pressure Pd = 2.63 KN/M2

Slope tilt = 7.00

Solidity Ratio ø = 0.00
From table 7, IS 875 Part 3
Cp +ve = 0.44
Cp -ve = 0.78 LOAD SHALL BE APPLY IN
STAAD IN LOCAL
Upward wind pressure per Sq m = 2.06
DIRECTIN (UNIY)
Downward wind pressure per Sq m = 1.16

Upward wind load UDL on purlin = 2.01 KN/m

Downward wind load UDL on purlin = 1.13 KN/m

Wind Load on Vertical

b W t length l/bx l/bz Kx Kz
Assuming Column member size C 75 40 1.7 1434 19.12 35.85 0.69 0.84
Assuming Rafter member size C- 75 40 1.7 4095 54.60 102.38 0.93
Coefficient of Wind Pressure on member as per table 26 = 2.05
Wind force on member: = Pd x b x Cfn x Kz
Hence Wind load on Column as UDL GX = 0.149 KN/M UNI GX (+)
-0.149 KN/M UNI GX (-)
Hence Wind load on Column as UDL GZ = 0.339 KN/M UNI GZ (+)
-0.339 KN/M UNI GZ (-)
Hence Wind load on Rafter as UDL GZ = 0.375 KN/M UNI GZ (+)
-0.375 KN/M UNI GZ (-)
