DESIGN OF PURLIN
1.1 Design method :
Purlin is designed as a simply supported beam spanned over the trusses and checked for
the unsymmetrical bending caused by dead & Live and vertical bending caused by wind load.
1.2 General input :
Length of purlin
Spacing of Purlin
Wind pressure
Sheet weight
Slope of roof
Roof dust load
Roof live load
Type of section
Angle Section
Yield strength of steel,fy
