A warehouse of length (L) and breadth (B) is used to store the wheat and rice bags. The roof is to
be provided with roof trusses and corrugated metal sheets. Select a suitable type of roof truss. The
roof truss is assumed to be fabricated from rolled steel equal angle sections or channel sections.
The roof trusses are supported on columns equally space along length L. The height of the column
is H. Assume the end conditions of column suitably. Design should be as per BS code
specifications.
Draw the neat sketch of the plan and details of the designed components.
Consider the required data suitably as follows.
Select a suitable type of roof truss for the dimension of the warehouse L=35m,B=9m,
H=5m.
Analyse the roof truss. Design the top chord of the roof truss and any one compression
member and any one tension member of the roof truss. Also the spacing of the columns
and number of columns may be suitably assumed.
Any missing data may be suitably assumed.
A warehouse of length ( L ) and breadth ( B ) is
