Example 9.9 Design an L-section purlin, for an industrial building situated
in the outskirts of Allahabad, to support a galvanised corrugated iron sheet

Spacing of the truss c/c = 6.0 m
Span of truss = 12.0 m
Slope of truss = 30°

Solution For steel of grade Fe 410: f= 250 MPa
Weight of galvanised Corrugated iron sheets = 130 x
Assume dead load of purlin = 100 N/m
Total dead load = 195 + 100= 295 Nim
195 Nim
The dead load acts vertically downwards.
‘The component of dead load parallel to roof = 295 sin 30° = 147.5 Nim
‘The component of dead load normal to roof = 295 cos 30° = 255.477 Nim
Wind load is assumed to act normal to the roof.
Wind load 2x 10°X 1.5 «1 = 3000 Nin
Total load on purlin normal to the roof
= 3000 + 255.477 = 3255.477 Nim
Factored load normal to roof,
P = 1.5 x 3255.477 = 4883.20 N/m (Table 4.3, y= 15)
