    The document discusses the design concept of pre-engineered buildings. Pre-engineered buildings have advantages for single-story industrial buildings as they provide large column-free interior spaces. Secondary structural members like purlins and girts play an important role by supporting roofing/siding and transferring loads to main frames. The term "pre-engineered" originated in the 1960s as standard engineering designs were used for a limited number of building configurations. Advancing technology has increased clear spans possible for pre-engineered buildings over time.

    DESIGN CONCEPT OF PRE ENGINEERED BUILDING @ Architecture Seminar Topics @ 1

    DESIGN CONCEPT OF PRE ENGINEERED BUILDING.pdf (Size: 432.34 KB / Downloads: 86) ASTRACT: The pre-engineered steel building system construction has great advantages to the single storey buildings, practical and efficient alternative to conventional buildings, the System representing one central model within multiple disciplines. Pre-engineered building creates and maintains in real time multidimensional, data rich views through a project and implimentation support is currently being implemented by Staad pro software packages for design and engineering. 1. INTRODUCTION A tall steel building is not more in the total number of tall steel structures that are built around the world. A large steel structures being built are only single storey buildings for industrial purpose. Secondary structural members span the distance between the primary building frames of metal building systems. They play a complex role that extends beyond supporting roof and wall covering and carrying exterior loads to main frames. Secondary structurals, as these members are sometimes called, may serve as flange bracing for primary framing and may function as a part of the buildings lateral loadresisting system. Roof secondary members, known as purlins, often form an essential part of horizontal roof diaphragms; wall secondary members, known as girts, are frequently found in wall bracing assemblies. The majority of steel structures being built are only low-rise buildings, which are generally of one storey only. Industrial buildings, a sub-set of low-rise buildings are normally used for steel plants, automobile industries, light, utility and process industries, thermal power stations, warehouses, assembly plants, storage, garages, small scale industries, etc. These buildings require large column free areas. Hence interior columns, walls and partitions are often eliminated or kept to a minimum. Most of these buildings may require adequate headroom for use of an overhead traveling crane. A third type of secondary framing, known by the names of eave strut, eave purlin, or eave girt, acts as part purlin and part girtits top flange supports roof panels, its web, wall siding. Girts, purlins, and eave struts exhibit similar structural behaviour. Since most secondary members normally encountered in metal building systems are made of cold-formed steel, our discussion starts with some relevant issues in design of cold-formed steel structures. Pre-Engineered Buildings The scientific-sounding term pre-engineered buildings came into being in the 1960s. The buildings were pre-engineered because, like their ancestors, they relied upon standard engineering designs for a limited number of off-the-shelf configurations. Several factors made this period significant for the history of metal buildings. First, the improving technology was constantly expanding the maximum clear-span capabilities of metal buildings. The first rigidframe buildings introduced in the late 1940s could span only 40 ft. In a few years, 50-, 60-, and 70-ft buildings became possible. By the late 1950s, rigid frames with 100-ft spans were made, ribbed metal panels became available, allowing the buildings to look different from the old tired corrugated appearance. Third, collared panels were introduced by Strand-Steel Corp. in the early 1960s, permitting some design individuality. At about the same time, continuous span cold-formed Z purlins were invented (also by Strand-Steel), the first factory-insulated panels were developed by Butler, and the first UL-approved metal roof appeared on the market.1st And last, but not least, the first computer-designed metal buildings also made their debut in the early 1960s. With the advent of computerization, the design possibilities became almost limitless. All these factors combined to produce a new metal-building boom in the late 1950s and early 1960s. As long as the purchaser could be restricted to standard designs, the buildings could be properly called pre-engineered. Once the industry started to offer custom-designed metal buildings to fill the particular needs of
