1.1 General
• The largest height parapet is located on the A-C & 1 axis with 2.5 length and 2.3m
height. It is called parapet type 1 in this calculation. The largest length parapet is
located on the I-G & 5-6 axis with 4.2 length and 1.55m height. It is called parapet
type 2 in this calculation. So, the below calculation shows design for them. (see figure
1.1 below).
1.3 Material
Structure material use:
• Cold-formed steel, hs = 78.5 kN/m3
