Basic Building Parameters

Building Length: Whenever possible maintain equal bay lengths throughout the building. When this is not possible make all interior bays equal and make the end bays equal but shorter than the interior bays. Building Width: Whenever possible make building width a multiple of 3m. This is because roof purlins are spaced at 1.5 m is equal to two purlin spacings one on each side of the ridge.
