A STUDY ON CONSTRUCTION COST & TIME
OF ROOF PLANT STRUCTURE
INTRODUCTION
General
The prerequisite industrial plants are in necessitation for rapid industry
expansion owing to the inadequate existed plants. Unavoidability of the industrial
increasing and economic growth are main propelled factors in industrial plant
construction increasing. Construction cost is the primary expense prior of further
considered investment factors.

Truss is the most popular design for the roof structure particularly on long
span length due to the more economical cost comparing to other type of structure.
The proper truss design would benefits the more investment. Roof truss structures
are always designed in various types and shape forms of truss on various types of
element selection in order to mitigate the cost and time. Nevertheless economical
truss patterns which subject to construction cost and times should be clarified.

Statement of Problem
Various important factors should be considered for optimum roof truss
design. Main considerations are on depth of truss per span length ratio, Vertical
chord length per horizontal chord length (internal shape), shape of element and
shape of truss. Difference in various factors will result in the difference in term of
amount of materials used, labours cost, fabrication as well as the installation.

2
Study on the various roof trusses on various factories found a lot of different
patterns employed. Nevertheless some patterns of truss are frequently employed
merely, Triangular and Double Triangular. The others shape forms can be found in
particular projects depending on the needs for architectural aspect.
The basic problem of this study is to discover the relation among various
concern factors as well as the sensitivity in order to estimate the direct cost of truss
on various patterns with the most economical element type and to discover the most
economical truss pattern.
Objectives
Main objective of this study is to identify the most economical form of roof
truss structure with low slope, which result in optimisation on the cost and time of
roof truss structure.
The objectives of this research are as following;
1. To find a rough estimate weight and painting area in order to evaluate
the approximate cost on various patterns of roof structure on the most economical
element type.

2. To find a rough estimate weight and painting area in order to evaluate


the approximate time on various forms of roof structure on the most economical
element type.

3. To find the Sensitivity of External Ratio and Internal Ratio.

4. To find the Most Proper Pattern of roof truss in scope range.

Scope of Work
1. Double Triangular Truss and Single Triangular Truss Form with low
slope (less than 5 percents) roof of industrial plant etc are the main scope of this
study.
2. This study concentrates on only roof truss structure.

3. Truss with 12m., 18 m., 24 m., 30 m. and 36 m Clear Span Supports vary
on 1:10, 1:12.5, 1:15, 1:17.5 and 1:20 Depth per Span Length Ratio (External Ratio)
with 1:1, 1:1.25, 1:1.5, 1:1.75, 1:2, 1:2.25 and 1:2.5 Vertical Element Length per
Horizontal Element Length (Internal Ratio) are truss aspects.
4. Material for truss will be steel solely with different five types of Element
Shape Tube, Square Tube, Angle, Channel and I-shape

5. Frame-to-Frame distance is 6 meters

6. The condition of fabrication and installation are out of scope.

LITERATURE REVIEW
General
The study of construction cost and time of each type of truss relates to the
patterns and types of roof truss and that always used. Each type of truss has
different cost and time in construction. For Obtaining the costs it needs to know the
estimating procedure for getting the result closely to result it should be. For
fabrication, there are many methods difference in method may result in different
cost and time of construction.
Type of roof trusses
The main function of a roof truss is to support the roof covering and any
external loads. The framing details are usually arranged in order to transfer the load
to the truss at the points of intersection of the main members.
Normally, trusses can be divided into many types. However, Church &
Edward (1930) following divided trusses, in their textbook Design of steel
structures, as showed in Figure 1

(a) English Truss

(b) King Post

(c) Belgran

(d) Frink

(e) Cressent

(f) Flat Warren

(g) Saw Tooth

Figure 1 Types of Truss by Church & Edward (1930)

6
They suggested the use of truss as following;
a) English and Belgian truss generally are built of wood or combination
between wood and steel.
b) The King Post truss will be used for only short span and is usually built
of wood or a combination of wood and steel for tension members.
c) Belgran is used for general purpose
d) The most suitable form of truss for ordinary building in Fink type.
e) The Crescent truss is used for longer span or where a maximum of
headroom is necessary such as in railway terminal, barns, etc.
f) Flat Warren propers for flat roofs and long spans for proper slope for
adequate drainage.
g) Saw-tooth is used in factory buildings for amount of light.
Williams & Harris (1957) classified roof truss into 4 types.

(a) Flat

(b) Fink

(c) Hawe

(d) Warren

Figure 2 Types of Truss by Clifford D.Williams & Ernest C. Harris (1957)


Furthermore in many factories, rigid frames were selected as main structure.
Williams & Harris (1957) described that rigid frames could be used for all types of
structure, such as bridges, building frame, crane supports and other industrial
frames. Duggal (n.d.) classified truss, in his text book Design of Steel Structures ,
in to 12 types as showed in figure 3.

Fabrication
Cost and time of installation in each truss depend on many factors and
fabrication is one of the important factors. There are many methods to fabricate
truss, in A textbook for technicians and craftsman
Flood (1977) described about fabrication, welding & metal jointing
processes that metals could be jointed by various methods such as; electric welding,
gas welding, riveting, bolting, soldering, adhesive bonding and self-secured.

Cost Estimation
Estimation is necessary for detail & rough and each type has several sub
item in order to obtain the result that is to close to the exact cost as Dagotino (n.d.)
classified cost estimate into two methods as following

Detailed Estimation Method


This method includes determination of the quantities and costs of everything
required to complete the work including materials, labors, equipment, insurance,
bonds and overhead, as well as an expected profit. This method normally used for
competitive bidding. Each item will be broken down into its parts and estimated.
Detailed Estimation Method requires identification of costs that come from usage of
various equipment types. Estimated quantities, costs of material, labor cost, type of
equipment, individual process time needs, project duration, overhead as well as
profit will be all considered as important factors to the accuracy of estimation.
Preliminary Method: Area and Volume Methods (Rough Estimation)
This method computes the number of cubic feet contains in the building and
multiplies by assumed cost per cubic foot.
These methods are preliminary (approximate) methods, used by architects
and engineers.

15
Estimating for Structural Steel
Structural steel is purchased by weight (ton) and the cost per ton varies
depending on the type and shape of required steel, and labor operations are different
for each type. The estimate of the field cost of erecting structural steel will vary
depending on weather condition, prompt delivery of all materials, equipment
available, sizing of pieces of work and amount of riveting and welding required.
Dagostino. (n.d.) explained about steel estimating that type of materials will
be taken off as well the quantity of each material type that is able to earn from
length multiply by unit weight of each. Any other necessary specific equipment
required must be also taken into account. Labours work hours are to be calculated
including.
Procedures of Estimation
1. Take off the various types and shapes.
2. Determine the pounds of each type required.
3. The cost per ton times the required weight will be the material cost.
4. Determine the work hours and equipment required and their respective
costs.
Truss Optimisation
Fundamentals of truss optimisation involve many design variables, such as
sizes of member, nodal coordinates and connectivity pattern of member by using
various method such as Linear Programming, Non-linear Programmring or
Dynamic Programming to gain the most economic structure. For topology
optimisation design in many decades, there are two types of topology optimisation
which have been investigated: Deletion of Members: The procedure consists of
initially interconnecting all the nodes of structure completely, followed by a step-

16
wise procedure of optimising the structure for geometry and cross-sectional
dimensions. Members with vary small force are deleted from the current structure
and the result structure is re-optimisation in the next step. The procedure is
terminated when sufficient convergence of the objective function is attained.
Addition of members in this procedure initiated by Spillers, which optimise for
geometry and cross-sectional dimensions. A node is introduced in an external
member and connecting this node to an existing node opposite to the member on
which the new node is introduced forms a new member. The new structure is
optimised for geometry and cross-sectional dimensions. The procedure is repeated
until a minimum weight is attained. However, many studies include the following
review never find the relationship between pattern of optimum form of structure
and construction time.
Optimization Document
Michell (1904) demonstrated that there was a unique geometry for the
structure of minimum weight, under each of the loading arrangements he proposed.
He showed that such structure was built up of orthogonal net of pin-jointed
members shapes like the slip-line field in plastic theory.

Dorn and his colleagues (1964) used the linear programmring technique to
optimise both the topology and geometry of some simple structures and obtained
interesting and unconventional results. Reliability of the solutions produced through
linear programing was in question because all the non-linear constrain equations
and the objective function had to be approximately liberalized for the apply of
linear programming.

Goff (1966) presented methods of optimisation of determinate roof truss


where geometry was also a design variable; joint locations were considered as the
state variables. The basis of their decomposition was that the force in various
members for a given truss arrangement are depend only upon the location of the
adjacent joints. GOFF (1966) considered the location of the nodes on the vertical
axes as the state variable for the cantilevered truss with single point load acting on

17
the tip of the cantilevered truss with single point load acting on the tip of the
cantilever.
Palmer and Sheppard (1970) were the first who considered the topology as
well as geometry, as design variables, using dynamic programming for cantilever
trusses. The topology optimisation was performed iteratively where different
topologies were produced at each iteration. The cantilevered trusses considered
were loaded at the tip only.

Mole (1973) optimisesed the configuration of a statically determinate


cantilever truss of a predefined external shape using dynamic programming. His
method involved a partial optimisation of topology and geometry for point load
applied at the tip of the cantilever. Mole's algorithm compared truss with different
topologies in one computation and selected the best unlike Palmer's where the
topology optimisation is essentially iterative procedure
Shamal (1974) solved a paralleled chord supported truss in which the
horizontal location of panel points and the number of panels were the variables. The
algorithm accepted discrete member lengths and produced trusses with different
topologies in one computation, compared them and selected the optimal one. Unlike
the previous works reported, SHAMAL considered a uniformly distributed load
applied along the top chord of the truss.
Gero and Kaneshalingam (1980) presented a computation procedure to
optimise the structure design of a stable, statically determinate truss which
incorporates the three criteria (i) free manipulation of topology of the structure and
its optimisation considering the topology, geometry and cross-sectional dimensions
as variables, (ii)selection of cross-sectional dimensions from a list of available
sections and materials, obtained from manufacturers' handbooks, and (iii) the use of
a multi-attribute multi-objective function rather than the singer-attribute objective
function considered by others.

18
Literature Review Conclusion
There are various types of truss classified by individual author Charch &
Edward (1930) classified into 7 types by functional purpose. William & Haris
(1957) classified into 4 types (no purpose statement). Duggul (n.d.) classified into
13 types. Nevertheless there is no suggestion about the shape form of truss or
important factors which impact to the cost of truss. Joint connection also influence
on time and cost of truss fabrication, Flood (1977) classified welding into 7 types 1).
Electric welding. 2). Gas welding. 3). Riveting. 4). Bolting. 5). Soldering. 6).
Adhesive bonding.7). Self-secured. Plate preparation also impacts on cost and
time. However the joint detailing is out of study scope. For cost estimation,
Dagosito (n.d.) explained on Detailed Estimation Method that material quantities ,
labor cost, equipment cost and overhead have to be taken into account and also
profits for obtaining the most total accurate construction cost. On the contrary,
Rough Estimation obtain from estimated area contains in building multiplies by
assumed cost per area.
Estimation for structural steel, the cost is derived from 2 items 1). Steel
2). Erection which influence by various factors such as weather, delivery of
materials, equipment, sizing of pieces of work and amount of joint. The simple
method was proposed by classifying of each type of joint times by total element
length time by weight per length equals to material cost then plus work hours and
equipment which equal to labor cost.
For truss optimisation, various studys of optimisation concentrate by
deletion of member or optimize for geometry and cross-sectional dimension.
Nonetheless the author concentrates on study on the typical structure and monitor
the sensitive factors among element shape, internal ratio and external ratio by
applying on single major truss form, 5 types of element, 7 internal ratio and 5
external ratio. The element sizing will be divided into 2 parts 1) Upper &Lower
Chords 2) Vertical & Diagonal chords

RESULTS
Effect of Truss Shape Valuaion
Afterward of trial design on both Double Triangular and Triangular Shape
Truss on every span length with different external and internal ratio, the results
illustrate the slightly different in term of cost and time by the resemble element
sizing as demonstrate in Appendix Table G1. The resemble element sizing result in
indifferent of cost and time which would come from solely 3% slope. The Double
Triangular shape shall be selected for further studied owning to the more practical
fabrication reason.
Proper Element Type Selection
Various element types were studied on worthwhile economical selection
through ratio of radious of gyration per cross-section and ratio of painting area per
steel weight simultaneously as illustrate in Appendix Table C1-C5. The maximum
average ratio of radious of gyration per cross-section has yielded to Tube Element,
the minimum average ratio of painting area per steel weight has yielded to Square
Tube Element. Nevertheless the more of Tube sizing diversity allow the more
flexible design to the nearest critical section and the average ratio of painting area
per steel weight of Tube Element as well as Square Tube Element are resemble.
The result shows slightly difference in term of total cost. Consequently the further
deep study shall be proceeded mainly on Tube element.

Average percent variation of weight is 4.856
Average percent variation of painting area is 1.475

Factorss Sensitivity for External and Internal Ratio


Derived equation of Material amount function illustrate that External Ratio
is more sensitive than Internal Ratio. However, for Painting amount function,
derived equation demonstrate that Internal Ratio is more sensitive than External
Ratio. Cost and Time function illustrate sensitivity in the same manner with
Material amount function.

25
The most economical pattern in scope range
From relative equation, the minimum External Ratio and maximum Internal Ratio
will result in minimum construction Cost and Time. Minimum External Ratio or
Depth of truss per span length ratio yield to1/10 and Maximum Internal Ratio or
Vertical Chord Length per Horizontal Chord Length yield to 1 / 2.25.
Where :
X1 = Span length in meter (12, 18, 24, 30 or 36)
X2 = External Ratio or Depth per Span Ratio (10, 12.5, 15, 17.5 or 20)
X3 = Internal Ratio or Vertical Chord Length per Horizontal Chord Length
(1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.25 or 2.5)

26
DISCUSSION
Shape of truss effect to the weight and painting area, in this study two
patterns of truss were selected to be studied, Triangular and Double Triangular
shape. Design comparing (see appendix G) illustrate the resemble element sizing,
nevertheless Double Triangular is more practical in term of fabrication owing to the
more identical length of element since the Double Triangular was further studied.
Type of element also significantly effect to the weight and painting area,
element cross section which provide the maximum radius of gyration per cross
section ratio simultaneously the minimum painting area per cross section area.
Refer to the market sizing, above ratio had been calculated (see appendix C). Tube
element and Square Tube element provide the maximum radius of gyration per
cross section ratio and Square Tube elements have slightly advantage on Tube
element in term of painting area per cross section area. Nonetheless Tube Element
have advantage on Square Tube Element in term of more flexible selection
according to the more market size. Hence the most attractive element yielded to the
Tube Element.
Deviation of calculation result (see appendix H) and actual design is caused
by the limitation of element cross-section selection owning to the sizing produced
which effect to each truss design in obtaining consequently comely weight per
square meter of roof and also painting are per square meter of roof. Approximate
Estimation Equations are formed with above limitation which cause of deviation
between actual design result and calculated result from obtained equation.
Sensitivity Analysis
Major Aim of this study is to obtain the approximate cost and time
estimation equation through weight and painting area per square meter of roof
where the main effective factors are shape of truss, type of element, span length,
depth of truss per span length ratio and vertical chord length per horizontal chord
length ratio. All of these factors result in the different effect in term of weight and
painting area, this study aim to focus on the most practical in term of fabrication

27
work, optimum weight and optimum painting area which directly effect to
construction cost and time. Shape of truss was the primary factor to be considered
and valuated, two type which is selected to be studied is Triangular and Double
Triangular Shape as both are popular used and as the most simple format which
need no rather high technique to fabricate. Double Triangular Truss has advantage
on Triangular in term of most of the vertical and diagonal chord length is equal
since benefit the suitable cutting work and fabrication further there is solely slightly
different in term of weight and painting area. Hence the Double Triangular Truss
was focused on further study.
Type of Element Chord effect to the weight and painting area of total
structure apparently. Difference in shape of element cause difference in radius of
gyration and weight, also difference in cross section area. The most worthwhile
type of cross section was studied. H-beam, Angle and Channel have less flexibility
in term of shape selection due to limitation of sizing in market. The aforesaid cause
in over designing unavoidable. Furthermore the average radius of gyration per cross
section is less than Tube element and Square Tube Element. Painting area was also
considered in term of painting area per weight of steel, the more ratios figure
indicate the more painting cost for equal weight. Tube Element was considered for
further study owing to the more flexible selection for designing. The most average
radius of gyration per cross section and proper painting area per weight of steel are
also worthwhile.
Span length, depth of truss per span length ratio and vertical chord length
per horizontal chord length ratio were taken into account for relative study on
weight and painting area effect. Even though Tube Element is the most flexible in
term of more various sections to be selected in designing, the undesirable excess is
still in many case which will effect to the formation of relative equation and cause
detectable deviation in some case since the comparative table between actual design
and figure from relative equations are present here in appendix H to be guideline
and notification of usage.

28
CONCLUSION
Afterward of study, the proper equation for estimation of construction cost
mainly composing of fabrication portion and painting work portion multiply by
Cost of fabrication per kilogram and Cost of painting per square meter of painting
area on each portion result in approximate total cost per square meter of roof.
Rough construction time obtain by the same manner which need multiplying by
Time of fabrication per kilogram and Time of painting work per square meter of
painting. Equations are as follow;
Proper Equation of Cost
Ct = UCw x (0.338 X1 + 0.214 X2 0.0718 X3 0.687) + UCp x (0.00836
X1 + 0.003911 X2 0.0631 X3 + 0.2)
Proper Equation of Time
Dt =UTw x (0.338 X1 + 0.214 X2 0.0718 X3 0.687) + UTp x (0.00836
X1 + 0.003911 X2 0.0631 X3 + 0.2)
Sensitivity
External Ratio is more sensitive than Internal Ratio for Material amount
function, Cost Function and Time function. Nevertheless Internal Ratio is more
sensitive than External Ratio for Painting Area amount function.
The most economical pattern
The most economic pattern yields to 1/ 10 External Ratio and 1 / 2.25
Internal Ratio
Where :
X1 = Span length
X2 = External Ratio

29
X3 = Internal Ratio
Ct = Total Cost per area of roof
UCw = Unit Cost of Fabrication
UCp = Unit Cost of Painting Work
Dt

= Total Time per area of roof

UTw = Unit Time of Fabrication


UTp = Unit Time of Painting Work

30
RECOMENDATION FOR FUTURE WORK
This study focus on effect of span length, depth per span length, vertical
chord length per horizontal chord length including shape of element and shape of
truss on average total construction cost and time. Varying on each factor in
different rate of construction cost and time change.
Trend and rate of cost and time change on each various effected factor
could be monitored and used as guideline of making decision on proper truss
selection for designer. Slope of roof truss was not included in scope of this study.
Concerning on slope change would us more flexibility in making decision of truss
pattern selection. In order to obtain the most proper pattern of truss for economical
reason.
Gable is also another interesting type of structure to be studied on as
comparative structure for alternative design for designer. Author strongly
recommend including gable structure in scope of study for future study.
