        abstract = {The demand for economical, durable, and rapidly constructed buildings has encouraged the wide use of Pre-Engineered Buildings (PEBs) in industrial and commercial sectors. This study presents the structural design and analysis of a clear-span PEB using STAAD.Pro software. The aim is to evaluate the structure’s performance under various loading conditions while ensuring safety, material efficiency, and compliance with both international and Indian standards. The design of the steel members follows AISC 360-16, while load combinations are based on ASCE 7-16. Wind and seismic loads are considered according to IS 875 (Part III): 2015 and IS 1893 (Part I): 2016.
A single clear-span steel frame, without intermediate supports, is modelled to provide an unobstructed functional space suitable for industrial applications. The analysis results demonstrate that the selected sections and design approach achieve structural stability, efficient material usage, and cost-effectiveness. This work highlights the benefits of integrating computer-aided design tools with modern code provisions to produce reliable and optimized PEB structures.},
