Design of Industrial Shed

In our project, we had to design an industrial shed with different capacities of cranes running on each bay. We understood how the behaviour of steel members, such as rafters, columns, gantry girders, and bracings, was analysed and designed with governing cases and connection detailing. A significant difference was observed between the column-supported crane and the bracket-supported crane. In the column-supported model, we found a higher weight in terms of kg/m2.  Larger crane capacity will lead to more size of members.
