1. NTRODUCTION
This document reflects of design calculations of Warren truss of steel structure over the
container.
The structure is a majorly a steel Structure with beams, posts & columns. The design has
been carried out according to New Zealand standards.
STAAD Pro software are was used for analysis of warren truss and Idea Statica V9.0 Use
for Steel CONNECTION Design its Member forces, Member stresses, Shear Forces,
Bending Moments and Drift checks were performed.

1.1 Geometry

The structure consists of :

L = 30 m
B = 25 m
H = 10 m
All Beams (Primary) = UB200 X 29.8
Truss Columns, Secondary Roof Beams & Cross Bracing = C591 X 246 X 20 (PFC180)
Main Columns = UC250 X 89.5

1.2 List of Design Standards:

 New Zealand Code
