Basic Structure

Era Buildsys is custom designed to meet your exact requirements. The basic parameters that define pre-engineered buildings are:

 

Building Width:: The building width is defined as the distance from outside of eave strut of the sidewall to outside of eave strut of the opposite sidewall.

 

Building Length:The distance between the outside flanges of end-wall columns in opposite end walls is considered the building length. Building length is combination of several bay lengths. End bay length is the distance from outside of the outer flange of end-wall columns of center line of the first interior frame columns. Interior bay length is the distance between the center lines of two adjacent interior main frame columns. The most economical bay lengths are 6m or 7.5m. Any bay length up to 15m is possible.

 

Building Height: Building height is the eave height which usually is the distance from the bottom of the main frame column base plate to the top outer point of the eave strut. When columns are recessed or elevated from finished floor, eave height is the distance from finished floor; eave height is the distance from finished floor level to top of eave strut.

 

Roof Slope(x/10): This is the angle of the roof with respect to the horizontal. The most common roof slope is 1/10. Any practical roof slope is possible

 

Design Loads: Unless otherwise specified pre-engineered buildings are designed for the following minimum loads:

 

Roof Live Loads: 0.57 or 0.75kN/m2 design for snow loads, seismic loads, collateral loads, or any other local climatic condition (if required) must be specified at time of quotation. Loads are applied in accordance with the latest Indian/American codes and standards applicable to pre-engineered buildings unless otherwise requested at the time of quotation.

 

Design Wind Speed: As per IS: 875 for location.
