2.4 Load Combinations
STRENGTH:
1.0 DEAD + 1.0 WIND DOWN
1.0 DEAD + 1.0 WIND UP

SERVICE:
DEAD + WIND

DURABILITY: Expected life of structure would be minimum 25 years. Hot-dip-galvanizing to be adopted.

3.0 STRUCTURE INFORMATION:

• This is a double columned structure with single PV Module arranged in Portrait configuration.
• The structure is modelled using line elements on standard Finite Element Software’s.
• There are members connected at the mid length of the purlins for preventing sagging.
