Hello everyone, in this video we will tell you, what makes a pre-engineered building stronger than traditional buildings and what are the major components used in making these kinds of buildings. The major components of the pre-engineered steel buildings are divided into 4 types: Primary components Secondary components Sheeting or Cladding and Accessories Primary components mainly contain - The mainframe, which basically includes the rigid steel frames of the building. - Columns, which help to transfer the vertical loads to the foundations. - And Rafters that are designed to support the roof deck and its associated loads. Secondary components contain - Purlins and Girts, where Purlins are used on the roof and Girts are used on the walls. - Then we have Eave struts, which are used at the intersection of the sidewall and the roof. - And Cable bracings, which are the primary members that ensure the stability of the building against different forces. - The sheets used in the construction of pre-engineered buildings are Base metal of either Galvalume coated steel or cold-rolled steel, with hot dip metallic coating of Galvalume sheet. - And finally, accessories. They are the Non-structural parts of the buildings such as bolts, turbo ventilators, skylights, doors, windows, etc., So these are all the components that are used in making a pre-engineered building.
