Abstract

In the past decade structural research has concentrated on the design of tall buildings, and has resulted in more rational and economical design procedures for such structures. In contrast, research related specifically to the design of low buildings has lagged somewhat, even though these buildings form a large portion of the market for the steel industry. This paper is a state-of-the-art paper for light industrial buildings in structural steel. Topics covered are loads, economics of different layouts and framing schemes, design of flexural members, design of compression members, and resistance to lateral loads.
