INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
The information contained within the pamphlet is a technical description of an
American, pre-engineered, pre -fabricated metal building. It represents the application
of the most modem methods of mathematics and engineering to the design of a
building. Its purpose is to provide interested reviewers with the necessary design
calculations, and other documentation required to readily verify structural integrity.
Figure 1 is a drawing of an American. Building, illustrating the typical load carrying
members; i.e., rigid frames, endwalls, purlins, girts, bracing and panels. A clear span
rigid frame building was selected for this purpose; however, any of American's other
standard designs, as described in the Standard Specifications for American Buildings
Company pre-engineered Metal Buildings , could also have been used to illustrate the
basic building components.
All designs are in strict accordance with the latest editions of AISC and AISI
specifications, which ever is applicable. The stress distributions in all load carrying
members are obtained by the most applicable methods of the universally accepted
elastic theory, as applied to indeterminate structures. A digital computer is used for
many of the complex and laborious design calculations.
American buildings are designed to meet the most severe conditions of load
combinations set by the specified building code, but not less than the following:
a) Building dead plus roof live load (or snow) uniformly distributed over
the horizontal projection of the roof area.
b) Building dead load plus wind load applied as pressure and suction
• normal to the building surfaces.
c) Building dead load plus wind load plus 1/2 roof snow load.
d) Building dead load plus roof snow load plus '/2 wind load
Other more specialized combinations and applications of loads are incorporated into
the design of a building when required. Occasionally these special design conditions
can not be handled through one of our standard design formats. If this occurs, special
hand calculations will be included.
Subsequent Sections of this report present the detailed design calculations and their
necessary explanations. These .are Section 2, Rigid Frame; Section 3, Column and
Beam Endwall; Section 4, Purlins and Girls; Section 5, Roof and Wall Panels and
Section 6, Miscellaneous and Special Conditions.

SECTION 2
RIGID FRAME SECTION
RIGID FRAME EXPLANATION AND METHODS OF ANALYSIS
Rigid frarme analysis and design is a very exacting task. American Buildings Company
has developed a computer program that permits detailed analysis and design to be
done on;steel frames. The following is a brief description of this program.
Essentially the program combines the STIFFNESS METHOD of structural design
theory with MATRIX mathematics operations. All of this is possible by the utilization of
digital computer capabilities. The inherent speed of the computations permits the use
of elaborate mathematical techniques which would be impossible by hand
computations. These techniques along with the completely rigorous structural theory
approach give technically precise and accurate results. The program consists of seven
• portions .which are as follows:
1) Geometry Input
2) Loading Input and Stiffness Computation
3) Equivalent Forces Computations
4) Solution for Displacements
5) Reactions and Member Force Computation.
6) Stress Analysis
7) Design Decisions
Geometry: The general structural configuration that the. program can analyze or
design is depicted in Figure 2 below.. It shows a gable frame with vertical sidewalls,
and a roof sloping downward on both sides of the ridge. The. rafters may be supported
at intermediate points by interior` columns. Each sidewall column or', rafter. may be
composed of a number of segments; these segments may be prismatic or tapered, with
"I" shaped cross-sections. The interior columns must be prismatic, but may be "I"
sections or pipes. The bases of sidewalls and interior columns may be at different
levels. The left and right sidewall heights and roof slopes may be unequal.
Support and Loadings: The column bases may be specified pinned or fixed; the
tops of interior columns may be specified pinned or fixed to the rafters. Uniformly
distributed dead and live load's and wind loads are considered to be transmitted to the
frame at and by the girls and purlins which are at specified spacings. In addition,
concentrated forces and moments may be specified. at any location on the frame, thus
permitting the inclusion of overhangs, cranes, and bracket loads, etc..
Input: The input to the program consists of information on building geometry, web
depths at critical locations, column locations, girls and purlins, loading descriptions,
material properties and stress criteria. If analysis only is required, the member
• cross-section details are input. If it is to be designed, inventories of flange sizes and
web thicknesses, and pipe sizes are used.
Analysis: In the, analysis option no decision making is done concerning member
selection. From the information supplied, which includes all member sizes, the
program develops the precise centerline. geometry of the frame. The analysis is carried
out on the line configuration, composed of. straight line segments ("Members") defined
by the joints and other junction points called. "Nodes": All the loads are transformed into
equivalent forces and moments and applied at Node Points. The direct stiffness
method of matrix structural elastic analysis is adopted. The member stiffnesses are
computed, and superposed to yield the. force -displacement relations for the entire
frame. Stiffness coefficients and equivalent end actions for tapered members are
obtained by numerical analysis. The Nodal displacements for the specified support and
• loading conditions are solved by a matrix block recursion routine. The support
reactions and member end forces and moments are then calculated. Finally, the most
critical bending and shear stresses along each member are computed, and checked
against allowable criteria according to AISC Specifications. The most critical stresses
are those with the greatest ratio when compared to allowable stresses. The program
analyzes the frame for each specified loading combination.
Design: In the design option, a safe frame is determined by an iterative process of
Analysis and design. Initiated by the Analysis of a frame approximated from the
specified flange, web and pipe inventories, the .design proceeds in cycles of analysis,
criteria checks, selection of fresh sections, and reanalysis until a satisfactory frame is
obtained. When the design is complete, the program will analyze and check the frame
for each specified loading combination.
Output: The output may. be requested at various levels of detail. The . basic output
consists of a listing of input data, centerline geometry, reactions, member end
reactions, Nodal displacements, member sizes and criteria checks, bolted connections,
and anchor bolts and base plates. More exhaustive information. may, be extracted if
desired.
LATERAL 'DEFLECTION OF FRAMES
In accordance with Section C5.6, Metal Building Manufacturers Association
(momms6), many metal building systems are designed with moment-resistant frames
aligned in the transverse direction to resist lateral loading. Experience has shown that
the lateral deflection of the frames under wind loading is far less than predicted by the
usual analytical: procedures. Consideration of just three factors undoubtedly accounts
for most of this'apparent anomaly:
1) drift calculations are traditionally based on full design loads,
2) the usual analytical procedures are based on "bare" frames (skin
action of the roof diaphragms is neglected) and the moment-
rotation stiffnesses of the "pinned" bases are taken as zero, and
3) load sharing has not been taken into account.
Bare frame deflections are given on the computer printout for each node points. By
considering the complete metal building system, the lateral deflection could be reduced
to as.'much as 1/10 of that for the bare frame. The lateral deflection limitation is based
upon .the judgment of the design engineer unless specified otherwise..

ENDWALLS
AND BRACING
Calculations supporting the structural integrity of the endwall framing and tension rod
bracing are presented in this section. Endwall components included in the analysis are
the roof beam, comer columns, interior columns, and, if necessary, tension bracing. In
addition, the analysis contains the designs for the roof and sidewall tension bracing.
Figure 4 of this section, illustrates these members schematically, along with the
loadings imposed on them.
The endwall roof beam is designed for the specified load combinations using the
I moments for a continuous beam. The interior and comer columns are designed as
pinned -end compression members under the dead plus live loading. For the horizontal
wind load, the interior columns are designed as simple beams. The wind forces
exerted on the sidewalls are resisted where. possible by the wall diaphragm or by
tension bracing. The roof bracing are tension members which transfer the wind forces
on the ends of the building to the eave where the sidewall bracing carries the sum of
the forces to the foundation. Figure 5 shows the forces acting on the bracing.
Page 4 of this Section defines the nomenclature used in the .computer printout that
follows.. The printout list the results of the stress analysis on the above building
members. Included in the results are the actual and allowable stresses controlling the
design of the member. The allowable stresses are based on the yield stresses being
36 KSI for the hot -rolled mill sections and rods, and 55'KSI for factory built-up sections.
