Building Length

• Building length: Distance between the outside flanges of end wall columns in opposite end walls

• End bay length: Distance from outside of the outer flange of end wall columns of center line of the first interior frame columns

• Interior bay length: Distance between the center lines of two adjacent interior main frame columns

• Ideally, bay length ranges from 6m to 7.5 m (up-to 15 m is also possible)

Building Height

• Distance from the bottom of the main frame column base plate to the top outer point of the eave strut

• It becomes the distance between finished floor level and top of eave strut in case of recessed or elevated columns from finished floor

• Height: Up to 30 m

• Roof Slope (x/10) is the angle of the roof with respect to the horizontal

• Commonly demanded roof slopes are 1/10 and 120

Design Load

• Roof Live Loads: 0.75 kN/m2 Design for snow loads, seismic loads, collateral loads, or any other local climatic condition

• Loads applied are in line with the latest American codes and standards applicable to pre-engineered buildings unless otherwise requested at the time of quotation
