Where:

qh – velocity pressure evaluated at mean roof height in Kpa

Figure 3. Diagram of Purlin

DL = Pdl x Cosθ x S = 235 N/ m² x Cos 13.2˚ x 1m = 228.79 N/m

LL = Pll x Cosθ x S = 1000 N/ m² x Cos 13.2˚ x 1m = 973.58 N/m

WL = qz xS = 3005 N/ m² x 1m = 3005 N/m

For tangential axis load:

DL = Pdl x Sinθ x S = 235 N/ m² x Sin 13.2˚ x 1m = 53.66 N/m

LL = Pll x Sinθ x S = 1000 N/ m² x Sin 13.2˚ x 1m

= 228.35 N/m Load combinations:

Case 1: (DL + LL)

Wn = 228.79 + 973.58 = 1202.37 N/m

Wt = 53.66 + 228.35 = 282.01 N/m

Case 2: DL + LL + 0.6WL

Wn = 228.79 + 973.58 + 0.6x3005 = 3005.37 N/m

Wt = 0.75 (53.66 + 228.35) = 211.51 N/m

Case 2 Govern
