Dear Members,
I am currently designing a warehouse with a span of 125'-0". The structure is being modeled as a metal building. Deflection is within allowable limits, but 6" deflection could disrupt roof components. Reducing the deflection further makes the metal building design uneconomical.
To address this, I'm planning to design truss frame for comparison. Could you please recommend a suitable type of truss to resolve these issues? Additionally, any special guidelines for truss design would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
