Purlin Calculator

This document contains the results of calculations performed by a purlin calculator. It analyzed a 3.9 meter span purlin with 1.4 meter maximum spacing under various load conditions. The section analyzed was 125x75x20x2 and it failed the member efficiency test with a critical moment of 3.73 kNm and a moment of resistance of only 3.59 kNm. A table is provided comparing the properties of different section sizes.
