Assignment#01: Design of Truss Roof

Given data:

Galvanized Iron corrugated sheet as a roofing material

N0 = -750

R = N - N 0 = 56 – (-750) (where N is the registration number)

Truss spacing = s = 2.5 + (R-700) / 50 (m)

Span of truss = L = 10 + (R-700) / 5 (m)

Solution:

R = N - N 0 = 56 – (-750) = 806

Truss spacing = s = 2.5 + (R-700) / 50 (m) = 2.5 + (806-700) / 50 = 4.62 m

Span of truss = L = 10 + (R-700) / 5 (m) = 10 + (806-700) / 5 = 31.2 m

Panel Length = p = L / 8 = 31.2 / 8 = 3.9 m

Angle of top chord = Ө = tan-1 (1.3 / 15.6) = 4.764○

Dead load of roofing (GI corrugated sheet) = 15 kg / m2

Dead load of insulation boards = 5 kg / m2

Self-weight of purlins = 10 kg / m2

Self-weight of bracing elements = 5 kg / m2

Miscellaneous = 5 kg / m2

Total dead load excluding truss self-weight = 15 + 5 + 10 + 5 + 5 = 40 kg / m2

 Steel Structures Lab

Live load from design aids (for Ө = 4.764 ○) = 100 kg / m2

Total gravity load = w = 40 + 100 = 140 kg / m2

Now, using Thayer’s Formula:

𝑤 𝐿 140 31.2
Self-weight of truss = √ 𝑠 (8.5 + 0.5) = √4.62 ( 8.5 + 0.5) = 22.96kg / m2

Total dead load = 40 + 22.96 = 62.96 kg / m2

Leeward wind pressure = Pl = 1250 Cq = 1250 (-0.7) = -875 N / m2

Windward wind pressure = Pw = 1250 Cq = 1250 (-0.7) = -875 N / m2

(for Ө = 0○ to 9.5○, Cq =-0.7)

Panel dead load = PD = w * p * s = 62.96 * 3.9 * 4.62 * 9.81 / 1000 = 11.13 KN

Panel live load = PL = w * p * s = 100 * 3.9 * 4.62 * 9.81 / 1000 = 17.68 KN

Panel wind load on Leeward side = P lw = Pl * (p / cosӨ) * (s / 1000)

= (-875) * (3.9 / cos 4.764○) * (4.62 / 1000)

Plw = -15.82 KN

Panel wind load on Leeward side = P ww = Pw * (p / cos Ө) * (s / 1000)

= (-875) * (3.9 / cos 4.764○) * (4.62 / 1000)

Pww = -15.82 KN

So, the values required for the table of forces are as follows:

Panel dead load = PD = 11.13 KN

Panel live load = PL = 17.68 KN

Panel wind load on Leeward side = P lw = -15.82 KN

Panel wind load on Leeward side = Pww = -15.82 KN

Assignment#02: Design of purlin

Given data:

Galvanized Iron corrugated sheet as a roofing material

N0 = -750

R = N - N 0 = 56 – (-750) (where N is the registration number)

Truss spacing = s = 2.5 + (R-700) / 50 (m)

Span of truss = L = 10 + (R-700) / 5 (m)

8
 Steel Structures Lab

Solution:

R = N - N 0 = 56 – (-750) = 806

Truss spacing = s = 2.5 + (R-700) / 50 (m) = 2.5 + (806-700) / 50 = 4.62 m

Span of truss = L = 10 + (R-700) / 5 (m) = 10 + (806-700) / 5 = 31.2 m

Panel Length = p = L / 8 = 31.2 / 8 = 3.9 m

Angle of top chord = Ө = tan-1 (1.3 / 15.6) = 4.764○

Dead load of roofing (GI corrugated sheet) = 25 kg / m2

Dead load of insulation boards = 6 kg / m2

Miscellaneous = 9 kg / m2

Live load from design aids (for Ө = 4.764 ○) = 100 kg / m2

Total Gravity Load = 25 + 6 + 9 + 100 = 140 kg / m2

Assumed self-weight of purlin = 0.15 * Total Gravity Load = 0.15 * 140 = 21 kg / m2

No. of truss panels = 8

9
 Steel Structures Lab

Dead Load = (25 * 6 * 9) * 3.9 * 9.81 + (21 * 3.9 * 9.81) = (1530.36 + 803.44) N/m

Live Load = (100 * 3.9 * 9.81) = 3825.9 N/m

Total Gravity Load = ((1530.36 + 3825.9) + 803.44)= (5356.26 + 803.44)N/m

Now

Mx = wcosӨ (S2 /8)

= 6159.7cos4.764 (4.622 /8)

Mx = 16377.61 N/m

My = wsinӨ (S2 /8) + wsinӨ (S2 /8)

= 5356.26sin4.764 (4.622 /8) + 803.44sin4.764 (4.622 /8)

My = (1186.87+ 178.03) N/m

Now For Channel Section:

Mx (assumed)= Mx + 15My

= 16377.61 + 15(1186.87 + 178.03)

10
 Steel Structures Lab

= 36851.11 Nm

Sx (Required) = Mx (assumed) / 0.66 Fy

= (36851.11 * 1000) / (0.66 * 250) = 223340 mm3 = 223.3 * 103 mm3

dmin. = S / 27.5 = 4.62 / 27.5 = 0.168 m = 168 mm

Trial Section No. 1:

C250 * 30

dmin. Check:
d = 254 mm >dmin. OK.
Applied Stress Check:
Sx = 259 * 103 mm3
Sy = 21.6 * 103 mm3
fb = Mx / Sx + My / (Sy /2) + My / Sy
= (16377.61 * 1000) / (259 * 103 ) + (1186.87 * 1000) / ((21.6/2) * 103 ) +
(178.03 * 1000) / (21.6 * 103 )
fb = 181.37MPa>Fb NOT OK.

Trial Section No. 2:

C250 * 37

dmin. Check:
d = 254 mm >dmin. OK.
Applied Stress Check:
Sx = 298 * 103 mm3
Sy = 24.3 * 103 mm3
fb = Mx / Sx + My / (Sy /2) + My / Sy
= (16377.61 * 1000) / (298 * 103 ) + (1186.87 * 1000) / ((24.3/2) * 103 ) +
(178.03 * 1000) / (24.3 * 103 )
fb = 159.97 MPa<Fb OK.

11
 Steel Structures Lab

Compactness Check:
bf / tf = 73 / 11.1 = 6.6 < 10.7 OK.
Check for self-weight of purlin:
Actual Self-Weight of purlin = 37 * 10 / 31.2 = 11.86 Kg / m2 < 1.2 * 21 OK.

So the final section is

C250 * 37

Now For W Section:

Mx (assumed)= Mx + 15My

= 16377.61 + 15(1186.87 + 178.03)

= 36851.11 Nm

Sx (Required) = Mx (assumed) / 0.66 Fy

= (36851.11 * 1000) / (0.66 * 250) = 223340 mm3 = 223.3 * 103 mm3

dmin. = S / 27.5 = 4.62 / 27.5 = 0.168 m = 168 mm

Trial Section No. 1:

W310 * 21

dmin. Check:
d = 302 mm >dmin. OK.
Applied Stress Check:
Sx = 244 * 103 mm3
Sy = 19.5 * 103 mm3
fb = Mx / Sx + My / (Sy /2) + My / Sy
= (16377.61 * 1000) / (244 * 103 ) + (1186.87 * 1000) / ((19.5/2) * 103 ) +
(178.03 * 1000) / (19.5 * 103 )
fb = 197.98 MPa>Fb NOT OK.

12
 Steel Structures Lab

Trial Section No. 2:

W250 * 28.4

dmin. Check:
d = 259 mm >dmin. OK.
Applied Stress Check:
Sx = 308 * 103 mm3
Sy = 35.1 * 103 mm3
fb = Mx / Sx + My / (Sy /2) + My / Sy
= (16377.61 * 1000) / (308 * 103 ) + (1186.87 * 1000) / ((35.1/2) * 103 ) +
(178.03 * 1000) / (35.1 * 103 )
fb = 125.87MPa<Fb OK.
Compactness Check:
bf / tf = 102 / 10 = 10.2< 10.7 OK.
Check for self-weight of purlin:
Actual Self-Weight of purlin = 28.4 * 10 / 31.2 = 9.10 Kg / m2 < 1.2 * 21 OK.

So the final section is

W250 * 28.4

As angle Ө = 4.764 ○; so there is no need to design the “sag rod”.

Assignment # 03: Design of corrugated sheet

Given data:

Design of 75 * 20 Galvanized Iron corrugated sheet

Number of sheets required = ?

N0 = -750

R = N - N 0 = 56 – (-750) (where N is the registration number)

Truss spacing = s = 2.5 + (R-700) / 50 (m)

Span of truss = L = 10 + (R-700) / 5 (m)

Solution:

R = N - N 0 = 56 – (-750) = 806

Truss spacing = s = 2.5 + (R-700) / 50 (m) = 2.5 + (806-700) / 50 = 4.62 m

Span of truss = L = 10 + (R-700) / 5 (m) = 10 + (806-700) / 5 = 31.2 m

Panel Length = p = L / 8 = 31.2 / 8 = 3.9 m

Angle of top chord = Ө = tan-1 (1.3 / 15.6) = 4.764○

Assumed dead load of roofing = 20 kg / m2

Insulation not attached to the sheet

Miscellaneous load = 6 kg / m2

Live load from design aids (for Ө = 4.764 ○) = 100 kg / m2

14
 Steel Structures Lab

Live load from design aids (for Ө = 4.764 ○) = 100 kg / m (For 1 m wide strip)

Total Gravity Load w = 25 + (1/3)6 + 100 + 100 = 127 kg / m2

No. of truss panels = 8

Number of trusses = 9

Sheet projection beyond center of truss support = 300 mm

Total gravity load = w = 127 * 9.81 = 124 6 N/m2

w = 1246 N/m for 1 meter wide strip

Length of one sheet = L = (np / cos Ө ) + E

L1 = (1* 3.9 / cos 4.7640 ) + 0.2 = 4.11 m (Not possible because 1.5 m < L < 4 m)

L2 = (2 * 3.9 / cos 4.7640 ) + 0.2 = 8.03 m (Not possible because 1.5 m < L < 4 m)

L3 = (3 * 3.9 / cos 4.7640 ) + 0.2 = 11.94 m (Not possible because 1.5 m < L < 4 m)

As no length is satisfying so we increase the number of purlins. We introduce another purlim in

between the two purlins.

15
 Steel Structures Lab

Now;

Panel length = p = 3.9 / 2 = 1.95 m

So

L1 = (1* 1.95 / cos 4.7640 ) + 0.2 = 2.16 m

L2 = (2 * 1.95 / cos 4.7640 ) + 0.2 = 4.11 m (Not possible because 1.5 m < L < 4 m)

L3 = (3 * 1.95 / cos 4.7640 ) + 0.2 = 6.07 m (Not possible because 1.5 m < L < 4 m)

So length of one sheet = L = 2.25 m

Mmax = w * p2 / 8 = 1246 * 1.952 / 8 = 592.24 Nm

(Sx )Required = Mmax * 1000 / 0.6 Fy = 592.24 * 1000 / 0.6 * 250 = 3.95 * 103 mm3

Trial sheet gage 1 = 22; I = 4.23 * 104 mm4

Self weight of roofing check:

Actual self weight of roofing = 77.6 N/m2
Assumed self weight of roofing = 20 * 9.81 = 196.2 N/m2
Now
(1.35 * 77.6 = 104.76) < (1.2 * 196.2 = 235.44) OK.
Maximum deflection check:
Live load = wL = 100 Kg / m = 100 * 9.81 = 981 N/m = 0.981 N / mm
For simply supported sheet:
∆ max = 0.013 wL * p4 / EI
∆ max = 0.013 * 0.981 * 19504 / 200000 * 4.23 * 104 = 21.8 mm
For S.S Sheet with partial fixity at one end
∆ max = 0.01 wL * p4 / EI
∆ max = 0.01 * 0.981 * 19504 / 200000 * 4.23 * 104 = 16.8 mm
So
∆ max = 21.8 mm
Now

16
 Steel Structures Lab

∆ allowed = span / 90 = 1950 / 90 = 21.7 mm

So
∆ max = 21.8 mm > ∆allowed = 21.7 mm NOT OK.

Trial sheet gage 2 = 20; I = 5.04 * 104 mm4

Self weight of roofing check:

Actual self weight of roofing = 91.5 N/m2
Assumed self weight of roofing = 20 * 9.81 = 196.2 N/m2
Now
(1.35 * 91.5 = 123.5) < (1.2 * 196.2 = 235.44) OK.
Maximum deflection check:
Live load = wL = 100 Kg / m = 100 * 9.81 = 981 N/m = 0.981 N / mm
For simply supported sheet:
∆ max = 0.013 wL * p4 / EI
∆ max = 0.013 * 0.981 * 19504 / 200000 * 5.04 * 104 = 18.3 mm
For S.S Sheet with partial fixity at one end
∆ max = 0.01 wL * p4 / EI
∆ max = 0.01 * 0.981 * 19504 / 200000 * 5.04 * 104 = 14.1 mm
So
∆ max = 18.3 mm
Now
∆ allowed = span / 90 = 1950 / 90 = 21.7 mm
So
∆ max = 18.3 mm < ∆allowed = 21.7 mm OK.

Now

Number of sheet panels required for 100 m2 of roof area = N 100 = 108 / C (L-E)

N100 = 108 / 585 (2160 – 200) = 87.21 = 88

Now

The inclined roof area on one side = A = ((L / 2 + Sheet projection) * (N t – 1) * S) / cos Ө

A = (31.2 / 2 + 0.3) * (9 – 1) * 4.62 / cos 4.7640

A = 589.7 m2

Number of sheets on one side = N 1 = (A * N 100 ) / 100

= 589.7 * 88 / 100

= 519

Total number of sheets = 2 * N 1 = 2 * 519 = 1038

Final Results:

Gage of G.I Corrugated sheet = 20 gage

Standard Designation = 75 * 20
Sheet panel size = 0.7 * 2.25 m
Total number of sheets = 1038
