Building Nomenclature

PRE-ENGINEERED BUILDING

Metal Scope Pre Engineered Building is custom- designed to meet your exact requirements in mind and within the parameters of the pre engineered structure.. The basic parameters that define Pre- Engineered Building are.

BUILDING WIDTH

Building width is defined as a distance from outside of eave strut of one side wall to outside of eave strut of the opposite side wall.

BUILDING LENGTH

This is defined as a distance between the outside flanges of end wall columns in opposite end walls and is a combination of several bay lengths

END BAY LENGTH

End bay length is the distance from outside of the outer flange of end wall columns to center line of the first interior frame column

INTERIOR BAY LENGTH

This is the distance between the centre line of two adjacent interior main frame column. The most common bay spacing are 6m, 7.5m and 9m. Bay length upto 15m are possible.

BUILDING HEIGHT

Building height is the eave height which is usually the distance from the bottom of the main frame column base plate to the top outer point of the eave strut. Eave height upto 30 meter are possible when columns are recessed or elevated from finished floor to top of eave strut.

ROOF SLOPE (X/10)

This is the angle of the roof with respect to the horizontal. The most common roof slope is 1/10. However, any practical roof slope is possible.

STEEL LINE

Steel line is defined as distance between center of main frame/gable column to the inside of sheeting line.

BRICK WALL

Generally 2.4m is considered. It can be to any height and the same is not in Metal Scope's scope.
