Arrived early in the morning. I was given a task to conduct an analysis on a roof truss based on example 11 in book titled "structural steelwork BS5950" that already has a solution. Why do so? The main purpose of conducting the analysis is to prove the reliability of the design software known as Prokon. This time around, the analysis consists of wind load that creates uplift to the structure. At the same time. I do not have any idea on how to analyse structures under the influence of wind load. As a reason, futher research has to be done on the analysis of wind load.
After conducting the analysis. It yields a results that comes very close to the solution provided by example 11 as in the book. In conclusion. Computer analysis saves time and energy, without compromising the accuracy of results obtained.
The deflected shape of the truss under influence of wind load, dead load and live load
Reaction at Fy=42.66kN and Fx=65kN
Wind load acts at surface of the roof truss
