GEOMETRY

Width of building W = 48.0 m

length of building L = 60.0 m
height of building H = 6.60 m
Spacing for frames S = 4.50 m

LOADS
Dead Loads
2
self weigh tof aluminium sandwich panels = 0.0800 KN/m
self weigh of roof purlins = 0.0400 KN/m 2
2
self weight of sag rods and other fixings = 0.0300 KN/m
2
Colleteral Load Considered = 0.1500 KN/m
2
Tot. dead loads on roof = 0.3000 KN/m
(Self weight of frame will be taken by program)

Intensity of LL = 0.60 KN/m 2

CALCULATIONS FOR DESIGN WIND PRESSURE

Basic Wind speed for UAE = 45 m/s (162 Km/h)

Design Wind Speed Vs = Vx S1 X S2 X S3

Where S1 = Topography Factor

S2 = Ground, roughness, building sizes and height factor
From CP3,CH V Part 2,
S1 = 1 as per table 2
S2 = 0.9
Table 3 for Building class C(L<50m) and ground roughness 2,(open country with scattered wind breaks)
S3 = 1

Design Wind Speed Vs = 40.5 m/s

2
Design wind pressure q = K x Vs

K = 0.613 for SI units (Constant)

q = 1005.47 N/m 2

Use q = 1.005 KN/m 2

DESIGN STANDARDS
Code for design = BS 5950 / BS 449
Roof live load = 0.60 KN/m 2
Roof dead load = 0.30 KN/m 2
wind pressure = 1.005 KN/m 2

LOADS ON FRAME

Dead load
UDL = DW X S
= 1.35 Kn/m
Live load
UDL = LL X S
= 2.7 Kn/m
Use q = 1.01 KN/m 2
Spacing for frames S = 4.50 m

Self wt of frame will be taken by the program.
