SEMESTER PROJECT

Project Title: Design of ware house

Final Report Due Date: To be notice
1. Assuming that wind load analysis showed that the roof is subjected to a wind pressure
based on the analysis carried out by you in the course Structural Design (in addition
wind load calculate the self-weight and imposed service load on to the roof), carryout
the modelling and analysis of the roof truss shown in Figure1. (Use CSI SAP2000)
2. Design the truss members for the induced internal actions and provide suitable
Rectangular Hollow Sections (RHS) for group one, Square Hollow sections (SHS) for
group two and Angles for group three.
3. Model the warehouse superstructure based on the plan layouts provided at the
ground, intermediate and roof level. Carryout the analysis by incorporating the roof
loads from the roof truss analysis results. (Use CSI SAP2000).
4. Design the frame elements (beam and column) and propose suitable UB and UC
sections for the beam and column respectively.
5. Assuming the connection among the roof truss members to be of welding type,
design the connections accordingly.
6. Assuming the connection among the frame structure members to be of bolt
type, design the connections accordingly.

No. Considerations
1 All dimensions for the truss drawing are in ‘mm’
2 All dimensions for the plan layout drawings are in ‘m’
3 Use ES-EN-1993-3-2015 as Design Code
4 Use For Group-1-S235 Group-2-S275 Group-3-S355 as
characterized on ES-EN 1993-1-1-2015

presentation shall be evaluated individually.
4. The written document shall be computer typed and drawing shall be done by
computer aided drawing software, preferably AutoCAD.
5. The written document along with the drawings shall be submitted by the indicated
submission date.
6. The date for the presentation shall be decided jointly by the Instructor and the
students.

each Group shall be 15 minutes. Each group member shall present his/her part and is
encouraged to actively participate in the oral presentation.
8. The order for oral presentation shall be from Group 1 to Group 3. The share of the
allotted time for the oral presentation shall be equal between/among the group
members.
9. Any group member, except the presenting ones, is allowed to ask questions and/ or
give comments on the oral presentation made by others. Each group member shall be
asked questions by the Instructor.
10. No time extension is allowed under any circumstances.
11. The written document shall fulfil the standard of project paper at the university level.
12. The document shall be evaluated based on
• Completion of task
• Document writes up
• Correctness of procedures
• Application for further use
13. The presentation will be evaluated based on
