 1-FRAMES.

-Main frame consists of ( columns and beams ).

-Span = l = (short direction)
𝑆𝑝𝑎𝑛
-Frame section height = hs = 40−50
- Main frame is repeated over a certain distance in the
long direction ranges from (6 to 8) m.
= S =spacing.

 SECONDARY SYSTEM :

- Secondary beams rested on the main structure (Purlins).

(perpendicular to the main system direction)
-Span = spacing of the main structure.
-Secondary beams are repeated over a certain distance (a)
ranges from (1.2 to 2.5) m.
-Slope of roof ranges from 1:5 to 1:20

 END GABLE :

- End gable columns spacing ranges from (6 to 8) m.

-Side girts are supported on these columns.
-Side girts are repeated over a distance ranges from
(1.2 to 2.5) m.
