The roof framing plan of the industrial building shown in Fig. 2.D. Roof slope is in./ft. General construction:
Roofing—5-ply felt
Sheathing— -in. plywood
Subpurlin—
Purlin—
Girder—
Assume loads are uniformly distributed on supporting members.
Fig. 2.D
Find: a. Average dead load D of entire roof in psf
b. Tributary dead load D to subpurlin in lb/ft
c. Tributary dead load D to purlin in lb/ft
d. Tributary dead load D to girder in lb/ft
e. Tributary dead load D to column C1 in k
f. Basic (i.e., consider roof slope but not tributary area) unit roof live load Lr in psf
g. Rain load R in psf at roof low point, assuming that the height of water to the secondary drain system (overflow scupper) ds is 5 in. and the hydraulic head dh at the scupper at design flow is 0.5 in.
