    Truss Design Sample

    Uploaded by

    Cares Olotrab
    This document summarizes the design of trusses for a pavilion. It provides the maximum axial loads on the top chord (5,523 kN in compression), bottom chord (9,946 N in tension), and diagonal members (2,436 kN in compression). It also lists the material properties of angles used and verifies that the calculated member capacities exceed the actual loads, indicating the truss design is safe and adequate.

    Design of Trusses (Typical for Pavillion Trusses)

    4443 N 9 loads at 500N each = 4500 N 4104 N

    Cc = √(2π2E/Fy) = 119.8

    for Top Chord: for Bot Chord:


    max Axial Load P = 5,523.3 kN in Compression max Axial Loap P = 9,946 N in Tension
    Le = 550 mm Le = 500 mm
    kL/r = 55.78 < Cc kL/r = 50.71 < Cc
    for Diagonal Members: for Vertical Members:
    max Axial Load P = 2,436.0kN in Compression max Axial Loap P = 4, 782 N in Tension
    Le = 660 mm Le = 1200 mm
    kL/r = 113.59 < Cc kL/r = 206.54 > Cc
    for Properties of Angles:

    1-1/2" x 1-1/2" x 3/16" 173.68 3 14.05 5.81

    for Top Chord: for Bot Chord:

    Pcap = Fa * Ax Fa = {1 - 1/2 (L/r)2 / Cc2} Fy/FS Pcap = Fa * Ax Fa = 0.60Fy = 165 Mpa

    FS = ----- + ------- - --------- Pcap = 48 882 N > 9 946 SAFE
    3 8Cc 8Cc3
    FS = 1.829
    hence Fa = 134 MPa
    Pcap = 39 699 N > Pact SAFE

    for Compression Members: for Tension Member:

    Pcap = Fa * Ax Fa = {1 - 1/2 (L/r)2 / Cc2} Fy/FS Pcap = Fa * Ax Fa = 0.60Fy = 165 Mpa


    5 3(Le/r) (Le/r)3
    FS = ----- + ------- - --------- Pcap = 28 657 N > 4 782 SAFE
    3
    3 8Cc 8Cc
    FS = 1.829
    hence Fa = 79 MPa
    Pcap = 13 722 N > Pact SAFE
