Abstract:This research reports a numerical study on the flexural strength of single-lipped Zed-Purlin sections under two equal moments applied at the ends of the specimen. The effects of attaching corrugated steel sheeting to the tension flange of Z-purlins on the structural behavior are investigated. The studied parameters of the specimens are: types of corrugated steel sheeting, depth-to-thickness ratio, and the span of the purlins. Linear and non-linear analyses using finite element software are conducted. Results s… Show more
