Design and Analysis of Truss Type Steel Buliding by using Tekla Software

Abstract

Steel offer the range of advantages to the structure Industry. Steel is also one of the most sustainable construction materials, building owners naturally value the flexibility of steel buildings in addition the value of benefits they provide.Steel trusses are widely used to carry the roof loads and to provide horizontal stability. There are numerous advantages to using steel trusses instead of traditional wood trusses, but the main reasons are simplicity and strength. Steel trusses offer a high strength, light weight roof system that can be installed quickly.In this project I use Tekla software. It has a very interactive user interface which allows the users to draw the frame and input the load values and dimensions. Tekla structures are powerful and flexible software for all structural projects. Then according to the specified criteria assigned it analyses the structure and designs the members with structural steel.Our final work was the proper analysis and design of truss type steel building.The Aim of present study is to define proper technique for creating Geometry, cross sections for column and beam etc., developing specification and supports conditions, types of Loads and load combinations. I analyzed and designed a truss type steel building initially for all possible load combinations (dead, live, wind, seismic loads). In this analysis process different types of codes are utilized. Dead load IS:875(Part-1), Live load IS: 875(Part-2), wind load IS 875-(Part-3), seismic load IS 1893. In this study a truss type steel structure is analyzed for seismic and wind load combination using tekla. Implemented manual designing and modelling by using of Tekla software
