Tapered Structure Efficiency
A tapered structure building is a type of structure that provides the widest possible spans without the requirements for interior supports. They are economical and work well for buildings that require a maximum amount of clearance at the center of the structure. The structure can withstand maximum stress at a single location. And stresses are much lower among the rest of the members.
So, a tapered structure has higher structural efficiency than the traditional one. It can also meet smooth functional requirements while reducing weight and costs. In the Pre-engineered buildings, PEB Tapered Section is used for creating a simple built-up beam or column between two picked points. The shape can be tapered or straight.
Hot rolled Sections
Hot rolled is steel that is roll-pressed at very high temperatures. It is generally used for giving a smaller, stronger, better surface finish. Pre-engineered buildings use hot rolled plated tapered sections that are used for primary framing required by the internal stresses. Hot rolled Sections eliminate wastage of steel which further reduces the weight of the structure.
Truss Structure
A truss is an assembly of members like beams. Connected by nodes, it builds a rigid structure. In the engineering term, a truss structure consists of two-force members only where the members are arranged so that the assemblage as a whole can perform as a single object. There are four types of truss, Pratt Truss, Warren Truss, K Truss, Howe Truss, Fink Truss and Gambrel Truss. Every truss comes with its own benefits. They build a cost-effective structure, create a simple design, spread load fairly between members, and ensure reduced compression in vertical members.
