Abstract
Technological improvement over the year has contributed immensely to the enhancement of quality of life through various new products and services. In structural Engineering, apart from structural and aesthetic design requirements, the major hurdle was the rate of construction and the safety norms. Development of Pre-Engineering Structure (PES) accelerated the rate of construction maintaining all the safety factors reducing the erection time of the structure. PES has also been satisfying a wide range of aesthetic and structural design requirements. Thus PES fulfils wide range of building configurations, custom designs, requirements and applications. India being one of the fastest growing economies, infrastructure development is inevitable. Thus there is wide scope of PES in India. As compared to other countries Indian codes for building design are stringent but safer. Thus, PES being an upcoming field in construction industry in India, it becomes necessary to study the PES design using IS 800 over AISC, which is discussed further.

Pre engineered steel buildings can be fitted with different structural accessories including mezzanine floors, canopies, fascias, interior partitions etc. and the building is made water proof by use of special mastic beads, filler strips and trims. This is very versatile buildings systems and can be finished internally to serve any functions and accessorized externally to achieve attractive and unique designing styles. It is very advantageous over the conventional buildings and is really helpful in the low rise building design. Pre engineered buildings are generally low rise buildings however the maximum eave height can go upto 25 to 30 metres. Low rise buildings are ideal for offices, houses, showrooms, shop fronts etc. The application of pre engineered buildings concept to low rise buildings is very economical and speedy. Buildings can be constructed in less than half the normal time especially when complemented with the other engineered sub systems.[2] - [2]Source: Civil engineering portal (http://www.engineeringcivil.com)
Introduction
In the USA, where the PES concept was originally conceived during the early years of this century, nearly 70% of all single storey nonresidential construction now utilizes pre-engineered Structures. Applications range from small car parking sheds to 90 m (+), wide clear span aircraft hangars to low-rise multi-storey buildings. Almost every conceivable building use has been achieved using the pre-engineered structure approach. Until 1990, the use of pre-engineered structure was confined mostly to North America and the Middle East. Since then, the use of pre-engineered structures has spread throughout Asia and Africa where the PES construction concept has now been widely accepted and praised. A growing number of prominent international contractors and designers, who previously specified conventional structural steel buildings exclusively, have recently started using the pre-engineered building approach. They now enjoy significant cost savings and benefits from the faster construction cycle resulting from this concept. From excavation to occupancy no other building system matches the pre-engineered building system when it comes to speed and value. The advantages of pre-engineered steel buildings are numerous and are the major reason for the spectacular growth of the PES industry during the

other loads to the building foundations. The wall and roof bracing provides stability for the whole building Even the fasteners are chosen to be compatible with the materials being secured and are engineered by the manufacturers.
Stability approach
As loads on the building are applied in both vertical as well as in lateral and longitudinal direction, we have to make building stable in all directions. Vertical support for the whole building is provided by Main frame. It also provides lateral stability for the building in its direction while lateral stability in other direction is achieved by a bracing system.

Structural loads
Different structural loads that the building typically must carry are - Dead load - Collateral load - Live load - wind load - Seismic load Forces that act vertically are gravity loads like dead load, collateral load, live load. Forces that act horizontally, such as stability, wind and seismic events require lateral load resisting systems to be built into structures. As lateral loads are applied to a structure, horizontal diaphragms (floors and roofs) transfer the load to the lateral load resisting system.

Conclusion
Following are some of the major differences in IS code methodology and AISC methodology observed during the study are: 1. Live load is 0.75 KN/sq m as per IS code whereas it is 0.57 KN/sq m as per MBMA. Thus, live load by IS code (IS 875-part II) is greater than live load by MBMA. Calculation of % of opening for wind load calculation: As per MBMA, Windows, doors, and other building accessories, designed to resist the wind pressures set forth in Section 5.5 need not be considered as openings. Thus, In MBMA, framed openings like doors, rolling shutter are not considered as open area as they are not permanently open. Whereas as per IS, we take them into account while calculating % of openings. Calculation of wind coefficient: MBMA gives final wind coefficient for enclosed, partially enclosed and open building. Whereas IS 875 part III gives external wind coefficient and (+/) internal wind coefficient. One has to calculate final wind coefficient using external and (+/-) internal wind coefficient. Thus, calculation of wind coefficient using MBMA is much simplified as compared to IS code.

Internal pressure coefficient, cpi = 0.2 if % of opening cpi = 0.5 if % of opening is between 5 % to 20 cpi = 0.7 if % of opening is more than 20% Thus, when % of opening is less than 5%, the building is called as enclosed building. When % of opening is in range of 5% to 20%, the building is called as partially enclosed building. When the % of opening is more than 20%, the building is called as open building. The percentage of opening area with respect to the gross sheeted area determines the opening condition of the building. Whereas in MBMA, Open building is a structure having all walls at least 80 percent open. Partially Enclosed Building is a building in which the total area of openings in a wall that receives positive external pressure exceeds the sum of the areas of openings for the balance of the building envelope (walls and roof) and exceeds 5 percent of the area of that wall; and the density of the openings in the balance of the building envelope does not exceed 20 percent. Enclosed Building is a structure that encloses a space and does not have openings that qualifies under the definitions of a partially enclosed or open building. Building with only roof sheeting & all walls open comes under enclosed building category as per MBMA. Whereas, it is considered as open building as per IS codes. 4. In IS code, wind pressure depends upon various parameters like, terrain category, class of structure, horizontal and vertical dimensions of the structure, mean probable design life of structure and basic wind speed. Regardless of any other parameter, wind pressure in AISC depends only upon wind speed and mean height of building. Bending moments on typical portal frame by AISC
Bending moments on typical portal frame by IS By observing bending moment diagrams on both the frames it can be concluded that load calculated by IS code is higher than load as per MBMA. 6. Load Combination : Load combinations for strength as per IS codes are as followsDL+LL 0.75( DL+WL) 0.75 ( DL+SEISMIC) 0.75 ( DL+LL+WL) 0.75 (DL+LL+SEISMIC) Factors applied to forces in load combination in order to increase permissible stresses should not be taken into consideration while measuring deflection thus all force factors are 1.0 while measuring deflection as per IS. Therefore, load combination for deflection as per IS codes are as follows: DL+LL DL+WL DL+SEISMIC DL+LL+WL DL+LL+SEISMIC Whereas as per AISC, there is no need for different load combinations for strength and deflection. Thus

common load combination for both strength and deflection as per AISC are as follows DL + CL + LL 0.75( DL+WL) 0.75( DL + 0.5 WL) ((1.1+0.5Av)DL)+seismic ((0.9-0.5Av)DL)+seismic 7. Serviceability criteria: MBMA says that Whether or not a structure or element has passed a limit state is a matter of judgment. In the case of strength limits, the judgment is technical and the rules are laid down by building codes. In the case of serviceability limits, the judgments are frequently non-technical. They involve the perceptions and expectations of building owners and building users. Serviceability limits have in general not been codified in the past in part because they concern the contractual relations with the owner rather than the protection of the public at large. Because of the nature of serviceability limits, it is proper that they remain outside the building codes. AISC just provides guidelines for deflection limit but ultimate decision is of customers. PEB companies following MBMA codes use deflection limit- vertical deflection = span(L) /180 and - Horizontal deflection = height (H) /90. Deflection limit as per IS codes are - vertical deflection = span(L) /325 and - Horizontal deflection = height (H) /325. But, IS code also says that, this limit may be exceeded in cases where greater deflection would not impair the strength or efficiency of the structure or lead to damage to finishing. Thus, PEB companies following IS codes, use deflection limit- vertical deflection = span(L) /180 and - Horizontal deflection = height (H) /150, which are still higher than deflection limit by MBMA. Deflection limits by IS code are higher than deflection limits by MBMA. Because of above mentioned differences, it can be stated as IS code gives more conservative design of portal frame as compared to AISC
