ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF INDUSTRIAL WAREHOUSE

CHAPTER - 1
1.1 INTRODUCTION

A Steel warehouse is a structural building, which is used by industries to store raw

materials and the produced ready goods. Steel warehouse is also called as the industrial building.
There are two types of industrial buildings such as normal type of industrial building and special
type of industrial building. Normal type of warehouses are the simple roofed structures on the
open frames. Special type of industrial warehouses are such as cold storage buildings, etc. In the
steel buildings such as the warehouses, the beams and columns are of steel sections of different
sectional dimensions. The steel framed structure could be erected for the several bays adjoining
each other based on the requirements. The horizontal and vertical bracings are provided
appropriately to the structure to resist lateral load properly. These bracings minimize the
deflection in beams or any other structural elements due to moving loads in the large industries.
Sheeting, supporting trusses and purlins are supported on the columns provided on the structural
roofing system.

These buildings require large and clear areas unobstructed by the columns. The large
floor area provides sufficient flexibility and facility for later changes in the production layout
without major building alterations. Special types of industrial buildings are steel mill buildings
used for manufacture of heavy machines, production of power etc. The function of the industrial
building dictates the degree of sophistication. A structure is a collective result of idea, design,
material, manpower, time, finance etc. As need is the mother of invention, similarly, type of
construction and its proper required design is a necessity.

Industrial warehouse design is a multifaceted discipline crucial for optimizing logistics

and supply chain efficiency. The primary goal is to maximize space utilization, employing
strategies like vertical stacking and smart aisle configurations. Material handling equipment,
such as forklifts and conveyor systems, is strategically chosen to streamline the movement of
goods. Safety protocols are integrated into the design, ensuring a secure working environment
compliant with regulatory standards. Cost-effectiveness is a key consideration, balancing
efficient design with budget constraints to achieve optimal operational performance.

Additionally, modern warehouse design emphasizes sustainability, incorporating eco-friendly

materials and energy-efficient systems.

Technology integration is a cornerstone of contemporary warehouse analysis. Automated

systems, data analytics, and artificial intelligence enhance efficiency and accuracy. Warehouse
management systems (WMS) provide real-time monitoring and control, contributing to effective
inventory management and order fulfillment. As the logistics landscape evolves, staying abreast
of emerging technologies and industry best practices is essential for companies aiming to
maintain a competitive edge in the global marketplace. In this dynamic environment, the synergy
of innovative design and technological advancements forms the foundation for successful
industrial warehouse operations.

This is made with the general idea on how a Pre-Engineered industrial building that is our
warehouse should be designed in a seismic zone 3 carrying solar panels for it to be steady and
economical. This also includes various parts of steel structure and loads which affects our
structure such as dead load, live load, collateral load etc. and it is effectively shown with the use
of STAAD PRO. we have gone through each and every part of the structures and have done the
redesigning of those structures that undergo a lot of stress .by increasing the cross-section
properties of truss we came across a fact that it can increase the second moment of area.
Keywords: STAAD PRO, Steel Structure, Solar Panel, Warehouse, AUTO CAD, Zone3.

Pre-engineered buildings are now a widely known term and PEB warehouses are no
exception. It was studied by G Durga Rama Naidu at that It was found that PEB was economical
compared to CSB and it is noticed that with the increase of bay spacing up to certain limit there
is reduction of weight of PEB and further increase in bay spacing makes the weight heavier. It
was then concluded that PEB increases the structure quality, reduced weight, quality control,
reduction of steel quantity.

S.D Charkha concluded that why it is necessary to optimize the steel building using PEB
and it is because PEB reduces the steel quantity, reduction of steel quantity reduces the dead load
and reduction of dead load reduces the foundation size and the PEB usage increase aesthetic
view. Milind Bhojkar P on comparison study of Pre-engineered building and conventional steel
building based on cost and time effectiveness observed that PEB roof structure is almost 26%

lighter than the conventional steel building and PEB building cost is 30% lesser than the cost of
CSB. Vrushali Bahadu et al. conducted the comparison of A-type and saw tooth type truss and
portal frame for industrial shed using STAAD-pro and found that Saw tooth type industrial shed
require less steel as compared to the other two which means it is economically good, the saw
tooth type truss is than compared with PEB. It is found PEB is the most economical.

Manan D. Maisuri stated that the consumption of steel of whole industrial building can be
reduced by deciding appropriate geometry of truss and by using hollow steel section with
compared to conventional steel section. Thus, stating tube sections are most economical.

varied increase in bay spacing. IS 875-part 3 was considered for analysis. It was found that PEB
was economical compared to CSB and it is noticed that with the increase of bay spacing up to
certain limit there is reduction of weight of PEB and further increase in bay spacing makes the
weight heavier.

S.D Charkha concluded that why it is necessary to optimize the steel building using PEB and it
is because PEB reduces the steel quantity, reduction of steel quantity reduces the dead load and
reduction of dead load reduces the foundation size and the PEB usage increase aesthetic view.
Milind Bhojkar P on comparison study of Pre-engineered building and conventional steel

lighter than the conventional steel building and PEB building cost is 30% lesser than the cost of
CSB. Vrushali Bahadu et al. conducted the comparison of A-type and saw tooth type truss and
portal frame for industrial shed using STAAD-pro and found that Saw tooth type industrial shed
require less steel as compared to the other two which means it is economically good, the saw
tooth type truss is than compared with PEB. It is found PEB is the most economical.

C. M. Meera, this work clearly communicates that PEB structures can be simply developed
using simple design techniques that adhere to national standards. In light of the findings, it can
be stated that PEB structures are superior to CSB structures in terms of cost effectiveness,
construction speed, and erection simplicity. The report also provides easy and cost-effective
options for PEBS preliminary design concepts. The illustration aids in the comprehension of the
PEB concept design approach.

Anisha T. Goswami, Shalaka Sharma, PEB is being used more frequently as a result of earlier
advancements, although its use is not uniform across the building industry. In comparison to
conventional-to-conventional buildings, PEB structures may be simply created using simple
design techniques in accordance with country norms, are energy efficient, quick to construct,
save money, are sustainable, and most importantly, are reliable. As a result, the PEB technique
must be deployed and investigated for mire outcomes.

G Durga Rama Naidu at that It was found that PEB was economical compared to CSB and it is
noticed that with the increase of bay spacing up to certain limit there is reduction of weight of
PEB and further increase in bay spacing makes the weight heavier. It was then concluded that
PEB increases the structure quality, reduced weight, quality control, reduction of steel quantity.

K.Prabin Kumar, D. Sunny Prakash, Indian code regulations were used to calculate the
various loads occurring on the structure. After that, load combinations were created, and the
foundation was designed based on the loads operating on the structure's base. The hanger was
designed, and the structure was analyzed manually and with the help of the STAAD.PRO
program. The results revealed that the hanger designs were similar. Both methods produced
deflection values that were less than the calculated allowed deflection. As a result, the structure
is safe against deflection.

M D Gawade in their “STUDY OF PRE-ENGINEERED BUILDING CONCEPT”has carried

out the study of PRE-ENGINEERED BUILDING CONCEPT with the use of tapered members
for columns and rafters and also using web tapered members depending on design limitations
mentioned in the Indian code. They concluded that PEB is more effective than CSB when it’s
about steel structure. From this research work it is seen that weight of PEB is very less as
compare to CSB with same loading. Whereas PEB requires accurate design and detailing unlike
CSB.

Explaining every parameter and detailing procedure. They concluded that if this construction had
been conventional rather than a PEB, the weights would have increased by 30%. The base of an
external column is a permanent support. Sway doesn't use pinned connections to manage. Base
of an internal column is regarded as a permanent support. The building's exterior walls are fully
sheeted. Roof and wall rod bracing is taken into consideration for horizontal restraint.

Muhammad Umair Saleemet in their “Minimum Weight Design of Pre-Engineered Steel

Structures using Built-up Sections and Cold Formed Sections”they analyze to Reduce seismic
and gravitational pressures result from a structure's minimum weight being inversely
proportional to its lowest cost. Pre-engineered tapered and cold formed sections are used after
conventional steel hot rolled sections have been analyzed and developed to achieve the
mentioned goals and to confirm the suitability and applicability of the PEB concept. It has been
determined that cold formed section secondary framing for PEB structures weighs about 60%
less than traditional hot rolled secondary framing used in the late 20th century. The Built-up
section primary framing is also 32% less expensive than traditional hot rolled section primary

No:751 framing. Less distortions and sway have been seen in both main and secondary framing
when using hot rolled sections. Buildings are now more affordable, lightweight, and aesthetically
pleasing thanks to PEB technology.

C.M. Meera in their “PRE-ENGINEERED BUILDING DESIGN OF AN INDUSTRIAL

WAREHOUSE” The research is completed by designing an example frame for a hypothetical
industrial warehouse structure using both concepts and the structural analysis and design
software Staad.Pro. This paper successfully illustrates how PEB structures can be created using
straightforward design processes that adhere to national standards. According to the research, it
can be said that PEB structures are superior to CSB structures in terms of cost efficiency, speed
of construction for quality control, and ease of erection. The article also provides straightforward
and cost-effective ideas for PEBs' preliminary design concepts. Understanding the design
process of the PEB concept is made easier with the assistance of the concept shown.

Subhash Kumar Sah in their “Performance and Protection of Pre-Engineered Buildings

Subjected to Blast and Earthquake Excitations” The research demonstrates the value of using
fluid viscous dampers to improve the performance of PEB structures that have been exposed to
blast and earthquake vibration control techniques in the form of passive dampers. The effect of
various damper placements and properties on the structural performance of PEB structures
subjected to blast and earthquake is also covered in the study. The most efficient damper for the
chosen PEB system at reducing the effects of blast and earthquake is class B-3 technique in
mitigating the blast and earthquake responses of a PEB system designed for wind effects.
Damper class B-3 is the most effective damper in mitigating the blast and earthquake responses
of the selected PEB system.

Sandeep Sathe in their “A state of art review on analysis and design of preengineered buildings”
A review of the analysis and design of PEB structures is provided in the current work. The study
gives a step-by-step description of how to model PEB structures and examines the various
elements of the PEB system. This review article concludes research on PEB's various aspects,
including characteristics, configuration, and performance in comparison to conventional steel
buildings. The design guidelines of different international codes of practice are also compared in
the study.

Shashank Pattanshetti in their “Comparative Study on the Economy between PreEngineered

and Conventional Steel Buildings” The research, which compares conventional steel structures
and pre-engineered structures, discusses the economics of the structures in terms of reducing
structural weight and maximizing material use. A 3D model of a traditional steel structure and
pre-engineered building is designed and analyzed for research using the structural designing
software STAAD Pro. When compared to a conventional steel construction, the weight of
structural steel for pre-engineered buildings is 33.00% less. The weight of the structure has been
decreased by 10.10% thanks to the replacement of ISMC with tube (hollow) sections and the
alteration of structural component sizes in response to the size of approaching pressures
demonstrating that an economical steel design can be achieved by optimizing structural
components based on weight magnitude.

Akshay Sharma in their “Comparative Study of Conventional Steel Building and Pre-
engineered Building to be used as an Industrial Shed” This case study for Industrial Shed is
based on a summary and a number of other case studies that demonstrate the YMER || ISSN :

experimental and analytical research they have done in this area. The outcome demonstrates how
these buildings are cost-effective, energy-efficient, and flexible in their design. The findings
indicate that compared to other types of industrial structures, steel structures are significantly
more cost-effective, energy-efficient, and flexible in their construction.

Seena Somasekharan in their “WIND LOAD ANALYSIS FOR INDUSTRIAL BUILDING

WITH DIFFERENT BRACING PATTERNS AND ITS COMPARISON WITH PRE-
ENGINEERED BUILDING “The truss chord members for various sections, including
ISLC/ISA, UB/UC, and SHS, are designed in this research using SAP 2000-18. The industrial
building's design makes use of the most cost-effective truss chord sections, and various bracing
techniques, including X-bracing, diagonal bracing, and k-bracing, are used to perform wind
analysis on the structures. The overall economic study reveals that PEB is less profit than CSB.
Less steel is used when PEB is used instead of CSB. Therefore, based on the research presented
above, we can say that CSB or PEB are the best types of industrial buildings to use when the
span is near to 42 meters and the distance between bays is 6 meters.

Mr. Hitesh Jibhkate in their “COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF PREENGINEERED

BUILDING AND CONVENTIONAL STEEL BUILDING BY STAAD PRO” This study's goal
is to examine the most economical tonnage frame and potential causes of inconsistent results.
Additionally, a comparative study is done between the cold-formed purlins used in PEB and the
hot-rolled section used in CSB. In comparison to the CSB structure, the PEB structure type
created by IS 800:2007 has less axial force, shear force, and bending moment. Compared to CSB
structure, the PEB structure type created by IS 800:2007 is lighter. In comparison to the CSB
Structure, the PEB Structure is 64% lighter.

Nauman Khurram in their “Optimization of flange and web slenderness for preengineered
built-up steel sections” The impact of unbraced length ratios on flange and web slenderness
ratios is elaborated in this paper, which also presents a design-based optimization for pre-
engineered steel frames made up of built-up sections. A Mat lab-based tool was created to
address the issue of built-up non-compact and slender sections based on the planning process.
Different unbraced length ratios' section capacities were assessed. The parameters of interest for
the entire research were the local slenderness of the web and the flange.

Swati Wakchaure in their “Design and Comparative Study of Pre-Engineered Building” This
research analyses and designs a PEB Frame and CSB Frame industrial structure in accordance
with Indian standards (IS 800-1984 and IS 800-2007). In terms of weight comparisons between
Indian codes (IS800-1984, IS800-2007), as well as between PEB and CSB building structures,
the economy of the structure is addressed. The portion is categorized as Plastic, Compact and
Semi-Compact, Slender Cross portion in IS Code 800-2007 Table 2. The narrow portion is not
designed in accordance with IS 800- 2007.Therefore, in PEB design, the slender sections are not
designed in accordance with IS 800-2007 code and IS 800-1984 code, which reduces the weight
of the framework. When compared to IS 800-2007, the deflection limits in IS 800-1984 are
greater. PEB structures reduce dead loads, which in turn decrease foundation size.

a) Purlin and Grit Design
b) Portal Frame Design
c) Column Base Design

Purlin and Grit Design

Purlins and girts are structural members in roofs and walls that support loads from
sheathing and cladding and are themselves supported by rafters, trusses, or building walls.
Purlins and girts can be made from timber or steel.

STEPS TO ROOF PURLIN DESIGN.

1. Determine spacing and span direction.
2. Assume the depth and width of the cross-section.
3. Calculate Characteristic Loads.
4. Determine wind load and other load acting on purlins.
5. Calculate all load combinations.
6. Verify the member for bending.
7. Verify the beam for a combination of bending and axial load.
8. Verify the beam for shear.
9. Verify the beam for instantaneous and final deflection criteria.

Portal Frame Design

Portal frames are the most commonly used structural forms for single-storey industrial
structures. They are constructed mainly using hot-rolled sections, supporting the roofing and side
cladding via cold-formed purlins and sheeting rails. They may also be composed of tapered
stanchions and rafters fabricated from plate elements. Portal frames of lattice members made of
angles or tubes are also common, especially in the case of longer spans.

General design procedure

The steps in the plastic design of portals, according to SP: 6(6) – 1972, are given below:

1. Determine possible loading conditions.

2. Compute the factored design load combination(s).

3. Estimate the plastic moment ratios of frame members.

4. Analyses the frame for each loading condition and calculate the maximum required plastic
moment capacity,

5. Select the section,

6. Check the design for other secondary modes of failure (IS: 800-1984).

Secondary design considerations are follows

The 'simple plastic theory' neglects the effects of axial force, shear and buckling on the
member strength. So checks must be carried out for the following factors.

1. Reductions in the plastic moment due to the effect of axial force and shear force.
2. Instability due to local buckling, lateral buckling and column buckling.
3. Brittle fracture.
4. Deflection at service loads.

Column Base Design

All loads which are carried by columns have ultimately to be transmitted to the I earth. For
proper transmission of loads the safe bearing capacity of the soil has to be determined. Usually,
the allowable bearing capacity of the foundation soil as I determined by proper soil tests will be
provided to the designer. The region where the (smaller) column section gradually gets expanded
so as to be adaptable for the larger foundation structures is known as the column base.

TERMINOLOGY

1. Bay

The space between successive bends is called a bay. Bracing - Single or double diagonal
members which form truss system with columns or beams (trusses) to provide stability and resist
horizontal load.

2. Columns

These are members, generally vertical, which primarily resist axial load. They are more
often subjected to thrust and moment. Usually rolled single sections are used but laced and
battened columns are also used where two or more rolled sections are connected together by
lacing or batten plates.

3. Column Height

It is the height of column from the top of column pedestal (or bottom of column base plate)
to the eaves level of the pitched portal.

4. Crane Girders

These resist vertical and horizontal loads from cranes. They usually consist of an l-beam with
a channel (flanges down) welded to the top flange. A crane girder is a preformed metal beam on
which the crab or hoist head of a traveling overhead crane runs. Such girders are typically “I”
profile beams that may be reinforced at various points depending on the loads and crane
configuration involved.

5. Girts

Beam members carrying side sheeting and supported by columns. Girts are structural
members in roofs and walls that support loads from sheathing and cladding and are themselves
supported by rafters, trusses, or building walls.

6. Purlins

Beam members carrying roof sheeting and supported by trusses or beams. Purlin is a
structural secondary member which forms the skeleton of the Metal Building. Purlins are the
longitudinal horizontal members connecting the rafters along the length of the building.

7. Roof Slope

It is the slope of the roofing sheet with respect to the span length. It is obtained by dividing
the height of portal frame by half the span. A common roof slope is 4:12, Which means that for
every 12 inches of horizontal distance, the roof rises 4 inches.

8. Spacing between Portals

The center line distance of two portal frames in the longitudinal direction. A span between
15 and 50 m. A clear height (from top of the floor to the underside of the hunch) between 8
and 18 m. A roof pitch between 5 degree and 10-degree (6 degree is commonly used) A frame
spacing between 6 and 8m.
