Estimation of loads:
Effective U.D.L on the purlin along its major axis = 0.02 t/m and ,for DL = 0.02 t/m
Effective U.D.L on the purlin along its minor axis = 0.02 t/m
Effective U.D.L due to wind load = 0.21 t/m
Effective U.D.L due to wind + dead load = 0.19 t/m
Section used are all 0.9 mm thick Yield strength = 550 Mpa (=Fy)
Depth of section = 90 mm
In our case we shall have the allowable bending stress as = 245.785 Mpa
h= 90 mm
t= 0.9 mm
h/t = 100
