    The document discusses the design of steel roof trusses. It describes trusses as triangular frameworks that transfer loads through axial forces in their members. Common types of trusses include lattice girders, pitched roof trusses, and parallel chord trusses. Trusses are used in roofs, floors, walls, and bridges to resist both gravity and lateral loads. The document outlines the loads, analysis methods, member configurations, and design considerations for steel roof trusses according to Indian standards.

    Design of Steel Structures

    Design of Steel Roof Truss


    - G. S. Deshmukh
    INTRODUCTION
     Trusses are triangular frame
    works in which the members
    are subjected to essentially axial
    forces due to external load.

     External load and the members


    lie in the same plane.

     In case of space trusses


    members are oriented in three
    dimensions and also the loads
    may act in any direction.

    2 Design of Steel Roof Truss


    Lattice Girders
     lattice girders are the trusses which frequently used to span
    long lengths in the place of solid web girders.

    3 Design of Steel Roof Truss


     Steel members subjected to axial forces are generally more
    efficient than members in flexure since the cross section is
    nearly uniformly stressed.
     Trusses are extensively used, especially to large span
    structures.

    4 Design of Steel Roof Truss


    USES
    Trusses are used in
     Roofs of single storey industrial buildings
     Long span floors and roofs of multistory buildings, to resist
    gravity loads [Figs. (a) and (b)].

    5 Design of Steel Roof Truss


     Walls of multi-storey buildings and horizontal planes of
    industrial buildings to resist lateral loads and give lateral
    stability [Figs. (c) and (d)].

     long span bridges to carry


    gravity loads and lateral loads [Fig. (e)].

    6 Design of Steel Roof Truss


    LOADS ACTING ON TRUSS
     Dead load- 1) Dead load of claddings
    2) Dead load of purlins
    3) Self weight of the trusses
    4) weight of bracings
     Live load
    As per IS:875-1987 (Reaffirmed 1992).
     Wind load
     Earthquake load
    As per IS:1893-1985.

    7 Design of Steel Roof Truss


    ANALYSIS OF TRUSSES
     The loads are assumed to be acting only at the nodes of the
    trusses.

     They are usually statically determinate.

     Can be analysed manually by the method of joints or by the


    method of sections.

    8 Design of Steel Roof Truss


    CONFIGURATION OF TRUSSES
     Pitched Roof Truss
     Parallel Chord Truss
     Trapezoidal Truss

    9 Design of Steel Roof Truss


    TRUSS MEMBERS
     The members of trusses are made of either rolled steel
    sections or built-up sections depending upon the span length,
    intensity of loading.

    10 Design of Steel Roof Truss


    DESIGN OF TRUSSES
     The design standard (IS: 800) imposes restrictions on the
    maximum slenderness ratio, (l/r), as given below:
    Member type Max l/r limit

    Members under compression under loads other than wind/ earthquake load 180

    Tension members undergoing stress reversal due to loads other than wind load 180
    or seismic forces

    Members normally under tension but may have to resist compression under 250
    wind load

    Compression flange of a beam against lateral torsional buckling 300

    Members designed only for tension even though they may experience 350

    stress reversal
    Members always under tension (unless pre-tensioned to avoid sag) 400

    11 Design of Steel Roof Truss


    These limits are imposed to ensure the following:
     Too slender a member is avoided which may be damaged during
    transportation and erection.

     Members do not sag excessively under self-weight during service


    causing excessive deflection in truss.

     Compression members do not sag greater than 1/1000th of their


    length, which is beyond the imperfection limit assumed in the
    compressive strength calculation.

     It is a common practice to specify a minimum angle size of 50 X


    50 X 6 in the case of roof trusses.
