Truss and metal structures

Truss and metal structures are the main engineering feature in construction, tall structures with light weight are the main reason for the increased demand for trusses in the construction industry.

As steel is used as a building material, due to its high strength and low mass, truss has played a major role in civil structures along with the advancement of steel industry, over the past years and even now.

As these trusses are made of planks as well, roof trusses, bridges, electricity and communications towers, and even skeletons make use of these trusses as complementary structural forms.

Definition of trusses and construction mineral

Trusses are simply defined as the triangulation of members to make a stable structure, and triangulation is the mathematically stable configuration. In general, the truss has members called the upper chord, the lower chord, the vertical chord, and the diagonal chord. The main functions of the struts are:

  1. Carrying loads from over structures
  2. Provide adequate lateral stability for the entire structure

There are some basic assumptions in the design process, it should be clarified that truss construction must comply with design assumptions to avoid unwanted failure due to dispersal of forces and loads.

 The following are the assumptions in the truss design.

  1. Only truss members and metal structures will bear the axial forces
  2. The nodes, that is, the member connections are designed as joints fixed between the truss members and each other.
  3. All external loads and reactions act only on the nodes.
  4. In general, the truss should be in a plane.

Truss members are usually manufactured as sections, corners, T sections, tube sections, square sections and channel sections. Sections I should preferably be an improved section in terms of structural strength.

Species trusses and construction mineral

  1. metal construction simpleRefers to a single triangular truss, these trusses are often used as roof trusses.
  2. truss level– As the name implies, it is a two-dimensional construction, if all the members and nodes are in a flat surface, then this truss is a planar metal construction.
  3. جمالونات framework spaceIn contrast to the planar truss, members and nodes are located in three-dimensional space, electrical and communication towers are among the simplest examples we see in everyday life.

what trusses Truss and metal constructions?

Simply metal truss trusses, are the support system of a building. The truss structure consists of 7 members, each member designed to withstand tensile or compressive force.

 Members are organized into a connected triangle so that the overall assembly behaves as a single object, our truss consists of a network of triangles linked together to enable equal distribution of weight and handle variable tension and compression without bending or shearing.

Our Jacon Steel Frame Truss Buildings are custom built to fit your individual design, and we are proud to manufacture all Jacon steel frame buildings using the highest commercial grade components available.

Steel truss frames can carry significant loads, transferring them to supporting structures such as load-bearing beams, walls or the floor.
