Longitudinal roof girder.

This is true even for winds up to and. In this arrangement the forces due to longitudinal wind loads are transferred from the gables to the side walls and then to the foundations. Lateral stability provided by portal trusses. They are also called as longitudinal stiffeners.

The figures 10 12 the maximum longitudinal temperature stress of box girder roof occurs in middle of zero block the maximum tension compression stress are 1 8mpa and 3 7mpa reducing at transverse diaphragm position it is because diaphragm plate interrupted the transmission of longitudinal temperature stress. It is necessary to provide a longitudinal wind girder between braced gable ends in buildings where the roof trusses are not portalized. The warren type girder replaces the solid web with an open latticework truss between the flanges. Longitudinal load 10 of the maximum wheel loads.

This arrangement combines strength with economy of materials minimizing weight and thereby reducing loads and expense. Small steel girders are rolled into shape. With the presence of eave girders 53 and tie rods 54 the danger of collapse of the roof structure in the longitudinal direction is virtually eliminated. Top of each column is laterally supported viii.

It is convenient to arrange a transverse wind girder at each end of the building so that the longitudinal members need act only in tension. A girt is a vertically aligned girder placed to resist sheer loads. Horizontal stiffeners are either continuous or discontinuous. For the longitudinal stability of the structure a transverse roof wind girder together with bracing in the side walls is used.

Larger girders 1 m 3 feet deep or more are made as plate girders welded or bolted together from separate pieces of steel plate. Girder is torsionally restrained about its longitudinal axis at supports vii. T roof 60 t rail 45 11 120. Most of our roof deck products are offered in a variety of acoustical and perforated options.

Girder and a back up girder to form a truss to stabilize the top flange of the girder usually economical for spans over 40 feet. The portion of the load coming on the cross girder after longitudinal distribution will be shared by the main beams in proportion to the distribution coefficients already found out previously. These stiffeners will improve the buckling strength of the web portion.
