Analytical study on north light roof truss with and without solar panel

Abstract

For structural design to be satisfactory, generally four major constraints – utilities, safety, economic and elegance must be fulfilled. Industrial building are low rise structure characterized by their comparatively low height lack of interior floors, walls and partitions. A single storey or a single storey with mezzanine type of steel structure is most suitable. To enclosure of an industrial building may be brick masonry, concrete walls or G.I sheet covering, glazed roof covering.The walls are usually non bearing but these must be adequately strong to resist lateral forces due to wind or an earthquake.The present work is based on design of north light roof truss with and without solar panel with different intensity of wind speed are modelled and analysed using the software tool STAAD PRO V8i S55 and the load combination available in IS 800-2007 and steel table. The theoretical data are calculated using Indian Standard code IS 875-1975 (part III), using limit state method. The different bracings are provided and find out the effective bracing system for north light roof truss.
