DESIGN OF PURLINS

Input Parameters; (Unfactored)Dead load =

Roofing Material -
Dead load = 153 N/m² Purlin Section = LC 150x50x18x3.0
Roof Live load = 300 N/m² Properties; Fy = 248 Mpa Others not specified -
Wind Pressure = 1960 N/m² Sx = 33.7 x 10³ mm³ Unfactored)Live load =
Roof angle, θ = 45.00 Sy = 6.9 x 10³ mm³
Purlin spacing = 0.6 m Self Weight, W = 60.3 N/m Tributary Area -
Sag rod = 2 m E= 200 Gpa
Truss spacing, L = 5.6 m Ix = 2525 x 10³ mm⁴

FORCE ANALYSIS;
Solve for Weight Normal and Tangential
Self wt 1.2DL+0.5LL Wind load
Wn = cosθ W = 42.66 141.53 1176.00 N/m
Wt = sinθ W = 42.66 141.53 N/m
Max moment due to load,
Self wt 1.2DL+0.5LL Wind load
Mx = Wn L²/9 = 148.65 493.17 4097.71 Nm
My = Wt L²/90 = 14.86 49.32 Nm
STRESS DUE TO LOADS;
* Since load tangential (DL & LL) acted on top, divide Sy by 2.
Self wt 1.2DL+0.5LL Wind load
ƒbx =
Mx/Sx = 4.41 14.63 121.59
ƒby =
My/Sy = 2.15 14.29
ƒbx =
Mx/Sx = 140.64 Mpa
ƒby =
My/Sy = 16.45 Mpa
ALLOWABLE BENDING STRESS; Considered Compact Section
Fbx = 0.66 Fy = 163.68 Mpa
Fby = 0.75 Fy = 186.00 Mpa
CHECK ADEQUACY ;
ƒbx ƒby
+ ≤ 1.0
Fbx Fby
0.95 < 1.0 Pass!
CHECK FOR DEFLECTION ;
δallow = L / 240 = 23.33 mm
δact = 5 Wn L⁴ / 384 EI
δact = 3.59 < 23.33 Pass!

Therefore use, LC 150x50x18x3.0mm thck C-Channel space @ 0.6m. Provide sag rod @ every one-third betwee truss.
