DESIGN COMPUTATION OF TRUSS

Loads Computations:
Cee Purlin C3 x 4.1
Weight of Cee Purlin

= 6.14 kg /m

# of Purlins (both sides)

= 16 pcs

Spacing of Truss

=3m

# of Joints to be divided in WT

= 11 pcs.

Roofing

= Corrugated Galvanized

Unit Weight:
PD = 0.1602 kPa
PL = 0.60 kPa
Truss Length, L

= 15m

Length of Span, Roof

= 7.91 m

Tributary Area, AT

= 1.5m x 7.91m

= 11.865 m2

DEAD LOADS
Truss Weight, 0.4 +0.04L , L-feet
WTRUSS

= 0.4 + 0.04(15x3.28)
= 1.1312 (9.81)(3.282)(2.204)
= 263.128 N/m2

= (160.2 Pa X 11.865 m2) + (6140 Pa X 2 X

WDL
)*16pcs
Total Weight, WT = WTRUSS

= 3827 N
WDL
= 263.128 + 3827
= 4090.128 N

Force per Joint P = WT / # of Joint

= 4090.128 / 11
= 371.8 N

LIVE LOADS
WLL

= 600 kPa x 11.865 m2

= 7119 N

Total Weight, WT = WJ + WLL

= 409.01 + 7119
= 7528.01 N
Force per Joint P = WT / # of Joint
= 7528.01 /11
= 684.4 N

WIND LOAD

WW X ATRIBUTARY
= 565 Pa X 11.865 m2

WTRUSS

= 6703.725 N
Total Weight, WTRUSS

+ WTRUSS
= 263.128 + 6703.725
= 6966.853 N

Force per Joint P = WT / # of Joint

= 6966.853 / 11
= 633.4 N
