+ A Pre-Engineered Building is a metal building that consists of light gauge
metal standing seam roof panels on steel purlins spanning between rigid
frames with light gauge metal wall cladding. It is a relatively flexible
structure vs. a conventional steel framed building. In other words, it has a
much greater vertical and horizontal deflection. The intent for this
publication is to recognize the nature and limitations of pre-engineered.
+ Pre-engineered building concept is lely used many of the
industrialized countries. It consists of a complete steel-framed building
system, with components pre-designed to fit together in a vast variety of
combinations to meet the unique requirements of specific end uses.Different members in the assembly of the pre-

Base Plate
[plate attached to the base of a column which rests on the foundation or other support, usually secured
by anchor bolts.
Butt Plate
The end plate ofa structural member usually used to rest against alike plate of another member in
forming a connection. Sometimes called a split plate or bolted end plate.
Bay
‘The space between frame centre lines or primary supporting members in the longitudinal direction of
the building.
Brace Rods
Rds or cables used in roof and walls to transfer loads such as wind loads, and seismic and crane thrusts
to the foundation. (Also often used to plumb buildings, but not designed to replace erection cables.)
Clear Height:
Thisis the distance between the Finished Floor Level to the bottom of knee joint.
Roof Slope (x/10):
This is the angle ofthe roof with respect to the horizontal. The most common roof slopes are 0.5/10 and
41/10. Any practical roof slope is possible.a ‘

The “Rigid Frame” assembly is the
most common frame used in pre-
engineered buildings.
Basically, the rigid frame consists of
a structural steel —_(hot-rolled)
moment-resisting column and beam
assembly that carries the cold-
formed roof purlins (usually “2”
shaped) and wall girts (usually “C”
shaped).
In addition, diagonal rod bracing is
required in the walls to resist
horizontal loading on the building
(i.e., wind loads and/or seismic). Rod
bracing is also provided within the
roof framing to resist "racking", or
twisting of the building.

Building Process
‘These are the stages which are involved
in the Pre-Engineered buildingADVANTAGES
1. Fast Project Construction:
- Buildings are fabricated and delivered within a short period due to standardisation.
- Fast erection because all members are field bolted
2. Functional Versatility: - Modular construction
+ Large clear Spans (up to 100m
~ Long Bay Spacing (upto 13m),
= Buildings are easily expandable on all sides (allowing for future expansion),
3. Architectural Flexibility:
Aesthetic features such as fascias, parapets and curved eaves greatly improve the appearance of the
building.
Readily avaiable interface details between steel and other materials (glazing, block wall, curtain wall,
ete),
4. Low Maintenance and Operating Costs:
- Virtually no maintenance required for al panels.
Roof requires only periodic cleaning,
Annual washing of Eave Gutters.
- Watertight roofs.Possible Disadvantages
1. Relatively short life-span
. Sometimes has an “industrial” or
“warehouse” look to it
. The foundation system is NOT designed by
the manufacturer
. On-site alteration in design can’t be done.Application of Pre-Engineered Buildings
