In a continuing effort to refine and improve products, PROLAMSA reserves the right to discontinue products at any time or change specifications and/or designs without incurring obligation. To insure you have the latest information available, please inquire or visit our Web site at http://www.prolamsa.com. Application details are for illustration purposes only and may not be appropriate for all environmental conditions or building designs. Projects should be engineered to conform to applicable building codes, regulations, and accepted industry practices.
GENERAL NOTES
PROLAMSA offers a complete line of structural shapes, formed using high strength steel, ASTM A-570 (55,000 psi min. yield point), finished with a baked-on red oxide primer finish or G-90 galvanized finish. Substructural components from PROLAMSA are manufactured in Light Gage Structural Institute (LGSI) sections. LGSI sections have been found to have numerous advantages, including greater ease of installation. Consult the LGSI technical manual for proper product application. All standard structural shapes (except eave struts, hats and girts) are roll-formed to ensure a maximum quality finished product. Standard web and flange punching are available upon request. Custom punching is another feature that PROLAMSA provides. Please contact our office for pricing and availability. PROLAMSA produces many open shapes and sizes that can be manufactured to your design specifications.
MANUFACTURING & PRODUCT INFORMATION

1. Standard Z-Sections (Zees) are manufactured with unsymmetrical and symmetrical flange. 2. All C-Sections (Cees) are manufactured with symmetrical flanges only. 3. Cee and Zee purlins are supplied in either of two finishes: Red Oxide Primer and Galvanized. 4. Cee purlins web sizes range from 4 to 14 in half-inch steps. 5. Cee purlins flange are the same size, and range from 2 to 4. 6. Zee purlins web sizes range from 3-1/2 to 14 in one-inch steps. 7. Zee purlins nominal flange standard sizes come with different actual flange widths. 8. Web punching is available on 6 to 12 Zees and 6 to 10 Cees. Punching is not available on 4 or smaller Cees and Zees. 9. Flange punching is available on 8 to 10 Cees and Zees. 10. Perforation sizes are 5/8 x 3/4 slots. 11. Three web punching patterns are available. Pattern A is standard; patterns C and B are optional. 12. Minimum Lengths: Non-punched purlins: 7- 0 Punched purlins: Patterns A and D 9-1 Patterns B and E 12-6 Patterns C and F 8-0 Pattern G 7-0
NOTES: Red oxide components are painted with primers designed for short-term field protection during the erection process. Handling scratches and abrasions are common and will rust if not touched up promptly.
Consult the Light Gage Structural Institute (LGSI) Manual for engineering information.
DEFINITIONS OF LOADS & LAP CONDITIONS

LIVE LOAD (ROOF) Live loads are loads that are produced both during and after construction by movable objects other than wind, snow, seismic and dead loads. Frequently used values for live loads are shown in this table.
ROOF LIVE LOADS
Loaded Area for Any Structural Member (FT2) Roof Slope 0-200 200-600 Over 600 .25:12 to 4:12 20 16 12 4:12 to 12:12 16 14 12 Over 12:12 12 12 12
SNOW LOAD The value used for snow load will be specified by your local building codes. Special conditions that will encourage heavier than normal accumulations should be considered, such as multiple gables, abrupt changes in roof elevation, etc. WIND LOAD Wind load is the amount of load that is imposed on a structure as a result of wind in any horizontal direction. The value you use for wind load is determined by local building codes. Wind action on a structure causes forces to be applied on all exposed surfaces. Determining the wind load value for a roof or wall requires the use of coefficients. The sample calculations refer to the coefficients in this table.
SURFACE ROOF WALLS MEMBER TYPE PURLINS GIRTS SYMBOL RCOEF WCOEF
To obtain the values for these coefficients, refer to local building codes. Typical values for RCOEF and WCOEF are 1.2 and 1.1 respectively. These apply only to enclosed buildings with a roof slope of less than 10 degrees.
DEAD LOAD Dead load is the weight of the building components that are being supported by the section. COLLATERAL LOAD Collateral load is the weight of additional permanent materials, such as sprinklers, mechanical and electrical systems, partitions and ceiling. Collateral loads do not include dead loads.
LOAD COMBINATIONS The value for live load in the sample calculations is the larger of live load and snow load, as defined above. This value is combined with dead load and collateral load in the sample calculations under the heading DEAD + LIVE load. STRUCTURAL MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONS For all Cee, Zee and Eave Strut sections: Fu = 64.7 ksi Fy = 55.0 ksi LAP CONDITIONS

LIGHT GAGE STRUCTURAL INSTITUTE

In an effort to promote efficient, safe use of member companies products, several manufacturers formed the Light Gage Structural Institute (LGSI) in 1989. The LGSI is a nonprofit organization composed of member companies who manufacture light gage coldformed sections. Those members, while cooperating to advance the state of the art in the metal component and metal building industries, continue to participate in a robust and highly competitive market for their products. LGSI members have adopted, and follow, an Antitrust Policy that requires all members to avoid any type of conduct that is anti-competitive or violates any federal or state antitrust laws. Companies that are members of LGSI conform to a set of bylaws and standards that ensure their compliance with the various policies set forth by the Institute. Specification advances incorporated in the 1986 and 1996 American Iron and Steel Institute Specification provide a framework for reaching the goals of LGSI member companies. The expanded LGSI manual, "Light Gage Structural Steel Framing System Design Handbook," is the result of LGSIs ongoing efforts. It builds on the success of the previous edition, which was widely used throughout the metal component and metal building industries.
