PEB
This training program equips participants with the knowledge and skills to analyze and design pre-
engineered buildings (PEBs) using SAP2000 software. The program covers the following range of
topics, including but not limited to:
1. Introduction to PEBs: Gain a solid understanding of PEBs, their components, and the
advantages they offer.
2. Standard Codes and Loads:
Standard Codes and Manuals: Learn about the relevant building codes and design manuals
used in PEB design.
Design Loads:
o Dead Load: Understand the concept of dead load and its calculation for PEBs.
o Live Loads & Collateral Loads: Explore the different types of live loads and collateral
loads considered in PEB design.
o Wind Load: Master wind load analysis for PEBs, including wind pressure calculations
and considerations.
o Crane Loads: Learn to design PEBs to accommodate crane loads.
o Seismic Loads: seismic load analysis for PEBs, considering zone factors and building
response.
Load Combinations: Understand how different load types are combined for various design
scenarios.
Serviceability Considerations: Explore factors that ensure the functionality and comfort of
the PEB under service loads.
3. Planning PEBs:
Main Frame Configuration: Learn about various main frame configurations for PEBs and
their selection criteria.
Roof Purlins, Wall Girts, and End Wall Systems: Understand the design considerations for
PEB roof purlins, wall girts, and end wall systems.
Expansion Joints: Explore the placement and design of expansion joints in PEBs.
Bay Spacing: Learn about the factors influencing bay spacing selection in PEB design.
Bracing Systems Arrangement: Gain knowledge about different bracing systems used in
PEBs and their arrangement strategies.
Mezzanine Floors: Understand the design considerations for incorporating mezzanine floors
in PEBs.
Crane Systems: Learn to integrate crane systems into PEB designs.
4. Main Framing Design:
Main Frame Design Procedure and Constraints: Master the step-by-step process of
designing PEB main frames, considering relevant constraints.
Flange Braces: Learn about the design and placement of flange braces in PEB main frames.
Design of Connections:
o Knee Connections: designing knee connections, which are critical joints in PEB
frames.
o Rafter Splice Codes: designing rafter splices in PEBs.
o Anchor Bolt Design: design anchor bolts for secure connections between PEB frames
and foundations.
5. Secondary Members Design:
Secondary Structural Framing: This section covers the design of secondary members in
PEBs, including:
o Roof Purlins: Learn to design roof purlins to support roof loads effectively.
o Wall Girts: designing wall girts for PEBs
o Eave Struts: Understand the design considerations for eave struts, which support the
edges of the PEB roof.
6. End Walls Design:
This section focuses on the design of PEB end walls, including materials, connections, and load
considerations.
By completing this comprehensive training program, participants will be well-equipped to analyze and
design PEBs using SAP2000 software, ensuring safe, efficient, and functional structures.
