Purlin Design

The document summarizes the geometry and load calculations for designing a purlin with a span of 5 meters and spacing of 1.2 meters. It calculates the dead and live loads, resulting bending moments under different load combinations, and the required section modulus. It determines that a Z purlin with a section of 20215 @ 3.93 Kg/m satisfies the required section modulus of 13.64 cm^3 and minimum dimensions according to code.

Geometry

Purlin Spacing s = 1.20 m


Span l = 5.00 m
Dead load on purlin DL = 0.15 Kn/m
DL udl = DL*s
0.18 Kn/m
Live load on purlin LL = 0.6 Kn/m
LL udl = LL*s
0.72 Kn/m
WL udl = (Cpe-Cpi)qw x s
(crictical) = -1 Kn/m
M = Wl

/10
MDL = DL*l*l/10
= 0.45 Kn-m
MLL = LL*l*l/10
= 1.80 Kn-m
MwL = WL *l*l/10
= -2.50 Kn-m
Combinations
DL +LL case M1 = 2.25 Kn-m
DL +LL+WL case M2 = -0.25 Kn-m
DL +WL case M3 = -2.05 Kn-m
DL +LL case governs the design
Z required Z = M / f
= 3.24*1000000 / (165*1000)
= 13.64 Cm

From code Dmini = L / 70
= 71.43 mm
Bmini = L / 150
= 33.33 mm
Result
Use Z purlin 20215 @ 3.93 Kg/m
Z = 27.2 Cm

Lip = 16 mm
Top Flange = 55 mm
Bpttom Flange = 50 mm
Depth = 202 mm
Thickness = 1.5 mm
