Truss Load Computation

The document outlines the load computation for a truss, detailing dead loads from metal roofing, purlins, and utilities, as well as roof live loads and wind loads for both windward and leeward sides. Specific values for each load are provided, including combinations of dead, live, and wind loads for structural analysis. The calculations include coefficients and factors relevant to the wind load assessment.

TRUSS LOAD COMPUTATION:

Bay of truss= 1.80 m.o.c.

LOADS:

A. Dead Load(DL):

Metal Roofing= 0.80 Kpa DL1 = - 1.71 Kn/m TC


Purlins= 0.15 Kpa
Utilities= 0.40 Kpa DL 2= - 0.72 Kn/m BC

B. Roof LL:
LL= - 0.90 KN/M

C. Wind Load (WL):

c.a) Windward side:


p1= Ce Cq qs I (bay)

Ce= 0.73
Cq= 0.30
qs= 1.50
I= 1.00

p1= -0.59 KN/M (downward load)

c.b) Leeward side:


p1= Ce Cq qs I (bay)

Ce= 0.73
Cq= 0.70
qs= 1.50
I= 1.00

p1= 1.38 KN/M (Upward load)

LOAD COMBINATION:

D. DL+LL
E. DL + WL
F. 0.75(DL + LL + WL)
