Comparison of Pinned Support and Fixed Support Pre-Engineering Aircraft Hangar

Abstract

Abstract: Conventional steel buildings are an old concept that requires a significant amount of time and money. To modify A pre-engineering concept is being developed for this problem. It introduced to the Indian market in 1990’s.PEB concept is totally versatile due to its quality, prefabrication, light weight and economical construction. In structural engineering, a pre-engineered building (PEB) is designed by a manufacturer to be fabricated using a pre-determined inventory of raw materials and manufacturing methods that can efficiently satisfy a wide range of structural and aesthetic design requirements. Pre engineered steel buildings can be fitted with different structural accessories including mezzanine floors, canopies, fascias, interior partitions etc. and the building is made water proof by use of special mastic beads, filler strips and trims. A hangar is a closed structure to hold aircraft or spacecraft in protective storage. Hangars are used for protection from weather, protection from direct sunlight, maintenance, repair, manufacture, assembly and storage of aircraft on airfields, aircraft carriers and ships. In this study, a 60m clear span aircraft hangar is developed using STAAD Pro and compared to a C- Section and H- section PEB.
