SITUATION.
Light gage cold- formed steel channels used as purlins are simply supported on roof trusses 6
mapart. Sagrods are provided at midspan.
Given: Roof Slope = 1V: 4H
Dead Load (purlin weight included), D = 720 Pa
Live Load, L= 1000 Pa
Wind Pressure, W = 1440 Pa
Wind Pressure Coefficients
At Windward Side, Pressure = 0.18
At Leeward Side, Suction = 0.60
Properties of C Purlins: C200X76
Sx = 6.19 x 10^4 mm^3
Sy = 1.38 x 10^4 mm^3
Fbx = Fby = 207 MPa
Assume that all loads pass through the centroid of the C section.
For D+L+W.a one third increase in allowable stresses is allowed.
Assume that all loads pass through the centroid of the C section.
For D + L +W, a one third increase in allowable stresses is allowed.
What is the safe purlin spacing (m) due to D + L?
