Pre-Engineered Buildings with Crane: Designed by Indian and American Code
Abstract: Over the past few decades, technological advances have significantly improved the quality of human life. Pre?engineered buildings (PEBs) represent one such advancement within the construction industry. Although the concept originated in the 1960s, its widespread application has increased only in recent years. PEBs introduce a modern approach to constructing single?story industrial structures, emphasizing the selection of optimal structural components based on functional requirements. These buildings are primarily developed through pre?design and prefabrication techniques. The growth of PEB technology is driven by advantages such as reduced construction time, cost efficiency, enhanced structural performance, and improved architectural flexibility. In this study, a pre?engineered building is designed with multiple parameters using the STAAD-Pro software and analyzed under various loads, including dead load, live load, collateral load, wind load, and their appropriate combinations. The main objective is to understand the fundamental principles of PEBs and to determine the minimum structural weight while ensuring acceptable displacements and force distributions that contribute to safety and stability. This work also presents a detailed design of a PEB incorporating crane movement, evaluated using both Indian and American standard codes.
