Connection Of Truss To Supporting Beam Column
Hello,
I am designing the mosque in zone 4 . The roof of the mosque is a Truss.I have following questions
1. Do truss rest on the beam ? if yes .? do i have to assign any support conditions ? or etab will selelct by default.
2. what will be the grade of steel for the truss ? yield or tensile strength. some one told me go for A 36 ( 36,58)
1, 40 psf can be said a high value with regard to my experienced design snow load for similar nature projects in various localities of Pakistan and it is confirmed by Hasan as he has revised it to 22 psf after incorporating several factors.
Moreoever,in Hasan's case usage of MBMA 1996 (Metal Building Manufacturer's Association) provisions for snow load calculation,reduction & application in contrast to truss system, should be more appropriate rather than ASCE as MBMA adresses specificall
