Design of Steel Roof Truss in ETABS

This tutorial discusses the modelling and design of steel roof truss for industrial buildings, warehouses, parking lots and markets. This video explains about the complete information which is useful for the design of a truss. In this video following topics are covered:

1) Basic theory and application of truss
2) How to select type of truss for our design
3) Modelling of truss in ETABS
4) Extracting load values from the code
5) Understanding the analysis results
6) Economical design of the truss

Thanks a lot. Great video. Good narration. Good voice. very clear and complete. Looking forward to watch other videos from you. Best wishes!

I have a problem. When I draw a shell and assign null as section, and then apply shell load on it, it won't transfer the load to the beams and columns below it. How can I apply area loads avoiding the self weight of the shell element? Looking forward to get answer from you. Best regards.

Dear could you help me that why axial force of top and bottom chord of my model are so differently (around 72% of difference), but when i assign load on top chord directly, the axial force of top and bottom chord are quite closely.

Thank you bro, learning alot from you

How do you assign windload on 1 slope shed type roof? What is the direction of windward and leeward?

[anishpandey]

Can you explain how you take windward coefficient as 0.8 and leeward coefficient as 0.5. Since as per code there is Cpe and Cpi (external and internal pressure coefficient)

Amazing tutorial.Sir can you please provide connection design tutorial for the same truss.

[AshwanikumarSainiARTER]

nice tutorial. Yes connections are important and I was wondering how you connect everything together. e.g. purlins over trusses.

Great Video Waiting For More Informative Tutorials...
Sir If possible Can you cover a tutorial on steel Building Design Which consit of BRBF, EBF, SCBF as per AISC 360 & 341.
Thanking You In Advance 😊

hello, which design code do i need to use when i am in South Africa?

[mathstube]

Which section is selected in Etabs for MS tube??

[innoinfra]

I just designed a industrial warehouse where I took ISMB 600 (as columns) but all columns are fail.
Can anybody give idea what could be reason behind this.?

How about a steel truss resting on concrete beam, how we do model the connection and what R value should be used for seismic.

[wilkes]

It was a nice video and i am looking for a steel buildind video.

thank a lot we learn, ore thing in ETAB

Do you do design work for home shops? I want to add a loft and lean to on my existing structure.

Why is wind load not assigned to columns?

[lokeshacharyab.g]

Sir thanks for wonderful videos, sir kindly upload tubular section single truss roof with mangalore tile

[arpitjaiswal]

What about the wind load from other direction.

[astmcivil]

if we select the auto-selection property for the truss top and bottom member and for the column it is a better way for steel design. by useing the auto-selection property program to collect economic section for all members
