  • Abstract:
  • Design of any structure is defined as the process of doing calculations by taking various components weight and also lateral loads for the stability of the structure for getting optimum results and to get the nominal cost of any structure for its construction and execution. Structural elements are very much important for the design of any structure because they only carry compressive loads such as weight of roofing system, purlins, rafters, and other accessories etc. In this research work a unique steel structure has been designed with the help of design software called staad-pro. The steel structure is designed for the maintenance of an aircraft named as airbus A-380 which is a wide body aircraft whose dimensions are noted as 73m(239.5 feets) in length, 79.8m(261.8 feets) wing span width, and 24.1m(79feets) in height. Thus in this research a steel structure as a pre-engineered building has been designed for the dimensions 120m in span width, 115m in length, and peak rafter height 30m from the floor finished level. In this research work after the quantity of steel for various members are obtained as for primary members 2143.86 MT, flange bracings consumed 60.86MT steel, sag rods 10.72MT, CHS/SHS taken 78.82MT, secondary members 133.50MT, sheeting including walls and roof consumed as 145.81MT, anchor bolts 13.24MT and for high strength grip bolts consumed 34.50 MT. Hence the total steel is estimated as 2621.31MT.
