Analysis of the Load-Bearing Capacity of Thin-Walled Steel Roof Panels and Connections

Song Liu

Abstract

The light weight roof panels have many advantages, such as light self-weight, good property of seismic resistance, convenient and easy construction. So, they are widely used in large span buildings. However, because of their light self-weight and large span, the dynamic responses under wind loads should be paid attention to. Based on the analysis of the large span roof of the Post Delivery Center of Shanghai, FEM is used to analyze the dynamic responses of the roof panels under wind loads. Finally, some useful suggestions are obtained for the design of light weight roof panels.
