Design of industrial sheds
What are the applications of industrial sheds?
These structures are commonly used in factories, commercial buildings, warehouses, poultry farms, aircraft hangars, maintenance facilities, retail stores, and sports arenas, often supported by frames with wide spans. Due to the substantial size of the beams and columns, plate girders are essential for the framing of industrial sheds.
Leveraging extensive expertise and a wealth of hands-on experience gained through the successful completion of over 300 projects across factories and industrial centers, details of which are provided below, Borj pooshesh Apadana Manufacturing and Engineering Company is well-equipped to meet the demands of industrial groups and execute projects with precision and excellence in this sector.
Design phases of industrial sheds
Features of industrial shed
The design of an industrial shed is a highly specialized and precise process that requires careful consideration of multiple factors. Overlooking these critical elements can lead to excessive construction costs, compromising cost-efficiency and structural integrity. Failure to adhere to proper design principles may weaken the durability and stability of the structure, potentially causing irreversible damage. For the optimal design of an industrial shed, the following information is essential:
- Optimization of roof slope percentage
- Selection of suitable roof covering materials (e.g., sandwich panels, galvanized sheets, poultry netting)
- Implementation of displacement control measures
- Engineering of connections and base plates
- Crane girder structural design
- Purlin design utilizing specialized software
- Sag rod design
- Optimization of a design ensuring minimal sheet waste
- Provision of a comprehensive structural calculation report
- Load calculations, including dead load, snow load, and asymmetric load
- Lateral force considerations, such as wind and seismic loads
- Crane load specifications. Question: Should the industrial shed design incorporate crane load considerations? (Yes; calculation of crane dynamic load)
- Regional, behavior, and importance factors for the shed
- Side height of the shed and wall height
- Entrance and length of the shed
- Determination of the quantity of longitudinal frames
- Expansion joint
- Calculation of the effective length factor for stability
Development of industrial sheds
With the advancement of science and technology, traditional methods can no longer satisfy modern demands, as competition in terms of both cost and construction speed has intensified and become increasingly critical. Consequently, the methods for constructing industrial sheds have evolved, with the adoption of machines such as UBM and KSPAN. These technologies significantly enhance construction speed by up to five times while reducing structural costs by at least 50%. The structures are earthquake-resistant due to their lightweight design and ability to withstand wind speeds exceeding 120 km/h. Additionally, the multiple grooves on their surfaces enhance wind flow, functioning as an effective insulating barrier. In extremely cold regions, such as Siberia, or in very hot climates, polyurethane coatings can be applied to provide enhanced insulation. These structures can be installed on lightweight foundations and do not require welding for assembly.
