ROOF TRUSS DESIGN

3.1 Material Specification

The material on the main bar of the roof and the connection plate has specifications
as follows,
Yield strength (Fy) : 210 Mpa
Ultimate tensile strength (Fu) : 340 Mpa
Modulus of Elasticity : 200000 Mpa
Weight per unit volume : 7850 Kg / m3

Joint Connecting using A307 bolts with specifications;

Bolt quality : 413,685 Mpa
Bolt diameter : 9.525 mm
Length : 50 mm

Material modelling using the SAP2000 program is as

following,

40.40.3.3 angled steel cross-section modelling using SAP2000 auxiliary program

is as follows,

3.2 Design Load Analysis

Static roof loading with a joint load of 500 kg
placed at the end of the roof. Load modelling is done with
using the SAP2000 auxiliary program, a joint load of 500kg is placed
at joint 7.

The results of structural analysis using the SAP2000 program are in the form of values
axial force on each stem and axial force diagram and deflection of 0.427
mm. The axial force diagram is shown in the figure,
More complete results regarding the axial force and strength of each bar at once
the number of bolts needed is displayed in the table,

3.3 Structural Failure Analysis

Based on the results of the SAP2000 program run, the bar experienced the first failure is the bar
with labels number 6 and 9 with axial compress force the bar at 28876.32N through the loading
of 2750 kg at the joint with label number 7. this is because of the nominal value of the
compressive bars resistance 28567N is smaller than the axial compress force
