LIVE LOAD
Live Load on Roof = 75 kg/sqm if slope is less than 10 degrees. If Slope is more than 10 degrees, LL = 75 – 2x(slope-10), subject to minimum of 40 kg/sqm
Live load on Roof = 75 KG/M2
Additional Live Loads to be considered = KG/M2
(For Design of Wall Girt (Cladding Runner), additional Live loads to be considered can be entered as -ve of LL on roof)
Terrain Category 2
Maximum Horizontal Dimension of Building 30 m
Hence, Building Class is B
Height of Top 10 m
Based on the h/w and l/w, the values of Cpe is obtained from tables as noted below:
Maximum Downward Cpe (including sign) -0.4

Design Calculations: Primary Load Cases – Conversion of forces to Normal And Tangential Components
WL is normal to roof
Hence, WL1 normal component = WL1 x Spacing = -1.972 kN/m
And, WL1 Tangential component = kN/m
WL is normal to roof
Hence, WL2 normal component = WL2 x Spacing = 0.145 kN/m
And, WL2 Tangential component = kN/m
Z Purlin Design_Report
For Strength Design, 0.75 factor is applicable for combinations with Wind Load since 33.33% extra stress is allowed
Hence, the components of load in the various load combinations for Strength design are
DL+LL 0.75(DL+WL1) 0.75(DL+LL+WL2)
Normal Load 2.115 -0.623 1.695 kN/m
Tangential Load 0.106 0.043 0.079 kN/m
Design Calculations: Checking Basic Section Properties based on Section 9 of BS:5950 Part 5 – 1998
Hence OK

Hence OK
Check No. 5 – Zxx of Purlin >= WL/1400 for Simply Supported Purlin and >=WL/1800 for Continuous Purlin
Z Purlin Design_Report
Zxx = 54.36 cm3
WL/denominator 54.335
Hence OK
Design Calculations: Checking Basic Section Properties based on IS 801 for Lip of Purlin
Minimum Depth of Lip shall be 2.8 x t x ((w/t)^2-281200/Fy)^(1/6) and not less than 4.8t
t= 2.4 mm
w= 59.2 mm
Fy= 3450 kg/sqcm
w/t= 24.667
2.8 x t x ((w/t)^2-281200/Fy)^(1/6) 19.098 mm
4.8t= 11.52 mm
Lip l= 20 mm
Hence OK
Hence OK
Compression stress based on full width = Max (Mxx/Zxx+Myy/Zyy) for all three unfactored combinations
f = 196.263 N/sqmm
= 1962.629 kg/sqcm
1435/sqrt(f) = 32.392
w/t = 24.667
Maximum Compressive Stress based on Lateral Buckling of Flange, as per Clause 6.3 of IS 801
Calculate X=L2Sxc/(dIyc)
and Y = Pi2ECb/Fy
Fb, the Allowable Compressive Stress based on Lateral Buckling of Flange is calculated as
X<0.18Y implies, Fb = 0.6 Fy - CASE (i)
X>0.18Y but X<0.9Y implies, Fb= 0.667 Fy – Fy . X / (2.7 Y) - CASE (ii)
X>0.9Y implies Fb = 0.3 Fy . Y / X - CASE (iii)
Pi = 3.1415926536
E = Modulus of Elasticity, as per IS 801 is taken as 2074000 kgf/sqcm
Cb as per IS 801 can be taken conservatively assuming M1=0 (en 1.75
Fy = 3450 kg/sqcm
Hence, Fb = 0.667Fy-Fy.X/(2.7Y)
= 1937.8135513 kg/sqcm
= 193.781 N/sqmm
As per clause 6.4.1 of IS 801,allowed maximum average shear stress Fv in kgf/sqcm is calculated as
4590/sqrt(Fy) = 78.145
Hence, Case is : 2
Hence, Fv = 5850000/(h/t)^2
= 884.339 kgf/sqcm
Hence OK
As per clause 6.4.2of IS 801 for the design check of allowable stress in combined shear and bending
Fbw = 36560000/(h/t)^2
Here, h/t already calculated above 81.333
Already calculated fbw = Mxx/Zxx since Zyy at web is very high (x=t/2, Z=I/x)
DL+LL DL+WL1 DL+LL+WL2
Mxx/Zxx 179.921 70.692 192.258 N/sqmm
Fbw 207 275.31 275.31
As per clause 6.4.3 of IS 801 for the design check of allowable stress in combined shear and bending
SQRT((fbw/Fbw)^2+(fv/Fv)^2) must be less than 1
In this clause, Fbw is not restricted by 0.6Fy and Fv is not restricted by 0.4Fy
Theoretical Deflection is calculated as (5/384) (wl^4/EI) for Simply Supported beam and (3/384) (wl^4/EI) for multiple spans
w is normal component of unfactored distributed load in kN/m, max. of all load combinations
= 2.260 kN/m
Hence OK
As per MBMA, allowed deflection from Live load component must be within Span/240
Span 6.800 m
or 6800 mm
Span/240 = 28.33 mm
Hence OK
