Number of Purlins= 20 pcs

DEAD LOAD:

ROOFING MATERIAL
from NSCP 2015 Table 204-2 Minimum Design Dead Load

Roof Covering (Galvanized Iron) 0.19 kN/m 2


Reflective Insulation (Polystyrene Foam) 0.004 kN/m2
Total: 0.194 kN/m 2

Load: (0.194 kN/m2) (3.95 m) = 0.77 kN/m

PURLINS
from NSCP 2015 Table 204-1 Minimum Densities for Design Loads from Materials

Weight of cast iron purlin 70.7 kN/m3 = 0.0766 kN

(Weight of Single Purin )( No. of Purlin) (0.0766)(20)


Load = = =0.03 kN /m2
(Rafter Length)(Bay Distance) (11.876 )(3.95)
Load = (0.03 kN/m2) (3.95 m) = 0.12 kN/m
TRUSS SELFWEIGHT
Thayer Formula (From STEEL STRUCTURES 3RD EDITION)

W=
√ (
w L
S 8.5
+0.5 )
where:

W = Weight of truss (kg/m2)

w = total load per horizontal plan acting on the truss (kg/m2)

S = Bay distance (m)

L = span of the truss (m)

Live Load 0.75 kN/m2 = 76.48 kg/m2


Roofing Load 0.194 kN/m2 = 19.78 kg/m2
Purlin Load 0.03 kN/m2 = 3.06 kg/m2
Total 99.32 kg/m 2

W=

+0.5 = 9 kg/m2 = 0.09 kN/m2

Load (0.09 kN/m2) (3.95 m) = 0.36 kN/m

DEAD LOAD: 0.77 + 0.12 + 0.36 = 1.25 kN/m

Tributary Area
TA = (Length of Rafter)(Bay distance)
TA = (11.876) (3.95)
TA = 46.91 m2

Uniform Load = 0.75 kN/m2

Live Load = (0.75)(3.95)= 2.96 kN/m
