The most common primary farming systems are shown
below. All are shown symmetrical about the ridge line. Farming systems
unsymmetrical about the ridge line and multi span farming system with
unequal width module are possible but may require more engineering time
and probably longer deliveries. Practically any frame geometry is
possible. Consult us for your specific requirement.
Primary farming consists of all structural elements transferring load to
the foundations.
Primary farming mainly consists of :
- Intermediate frames
- End wll frames
- Wind Bracings
- Crane brackets
- Mezzanine beams
Intermediate frames chara characteristics :
Intermediate frames consist of built up welded primary framing members.
These are either C.R.S sections, hot-rolled profiles, or built-up welded
profiles.
Frames are complemented by flange bracing, connection bolts and anchor
bolts. Generally, the base of the intermediate frame is pinned. Certain
circumstances demand a fixed base approach.
Protection
All efforts for protection during transportation and erection are made. All
profiles receive a shop primer coat of either red or gray colour.
Optionally, a finished coat also can be provided, on request.
Wind Bracing
Wind bracing provided longitudinal stability for the building. It consists
of cross bracing located in the roof and side walls in one or more days
depending on loadings and the length of the building. When required, cross
bracings can be replaced by wind portal frames or by fixed base wind columns
located adjacent and connected to the main frame columns
