DESIGN OF PURLINS

Purlin spacing (𝑠) = 0.70 m

Truss Spacing (𝐿) = 1.30 m
Truss span = 13 m
Weight of Roofing (acting horizontal to the roof):
Corrugated G. I. Sheets = 150 Pa
Roof Live Load (acting horizontal to the roof) = 1000 Pa*
By using Mahogany (80% stress grade):
Fb = 16.50 MPa E = 4.66 GPa
Fv = 2.71 MPa γ = 4.61 kN⁄ 3

Allowable Deflection, (δa ) = ⁄360

1. Load Calculations:
a.) Wind Load Calculation using Directional Procedure

Occupancy Category (from Table 103-1) Category IV

Basic Wind Speed (from Fig. 207A.5-1A) 250 kph = 69.44 m/s
Directionality Factor, Kd (from Table 207A.6-1) MWRFS, Kd = 0.85
Exposure Category (from Sec. 207A.7) Category B
Topographic Factor, Kzt 1.0
Gust Effect Factor, G (from Sec. 207A.9.1) 0.85
Enclosure Classification Enclosed
Internal Pressure Coefficient, GCpi +0.18/-0.18

b.) Other Loads

DL = 0.65 m (150 N⁄m2 ) = 97.50 N⁄m
DLN = 97.50 cos 21.80 = 90.53 N⁄m
DLT = 97.50 sin 21.80 = 36.21 N⁄m

LL = 0.65 m (1000 N⁄m2 ) = 650 N⁄m

LLN = 650 cos 21.80 = 603.52 N⁄m
LLT = 650 sin 21.80 = 241.39 N⁄m

c.) Factored Loads (1.2DL + 1.6LL + 0.5W − Sec. 203.3.1)

W = 0.70 m (388.52 N⁄ 2 ) = 271.96 N⁄m

Total Normal Loads = 1.2(90.53) + 1.6(603.52) + 0.5(271.96)
Total Normal Loads = 1210.25 N⁄m

Total Tangential Loads = 1.2(36.21) + 1.6(241.39)

Total Tangential Loads = 429.68 N⁄m
