Optimize steel building design in STAAD Pro by analyzing unity ratios, identifying critical members, and applying tapering, section changes, and incidence adjustments to meet deflection and combined bending criteria.
Description
A Pre- Engineered Building or PEB is a metal building frame that includes a structural system and often also roof and wall cladding. A PEB building, as it is called, is engineered at a factory and assembled at site. Built-up sections are fabricated at the factory to size and then transported to site to assemble with bolted connections. This type of Structural Concept is generally used to build Industrial Buildings, Metro Stations, Canopies, and Warehouses etc. These rigid frames consist of roof beams and columns that are field bolted together. These frames can span large distances without intermediate supporting columns.
This course summarizes the IS design code requirements and industry practice design criteria, design loads and other design consideration for PEB that are being followed in the Design offices.
In this course, your trainer takes you through designing process of PEB in the structural engineering software. Modelling the PEB and applying loads can be a complex and confusing in beginning, but your trainer breaks it down into bite-sized pieces and teaches it in plain English.
You will start with the absolute basics i.e. calculating loads on the PEB. Your trainer proceeds step by step through the process of modelling columns, beams, stringers, bracing, applying dead loads, product loads, thermal loads, wind loads. Next, trainer proceeds further on how to assign the properties to the structural steel members, assigning the releases and supports. Final stage shall be how to analyze and assign the design commands. Trainer finishes the lecture by explaining how user can optimize the structure as per the industry standards.
