“…Steel plant system is known as "green factory", with lots of advantages such as short construction cycle, energy saving, environmental protection, recycling and removable recycling comparing with reinforced concrete structure (Wang and Li, 2014). And because of the unique advantages steel structure are widely used in industrial, commercial and civil buildings (Ding, Jian and Lin, 2006).…”

The large span space steel plant structures are more and more complicated. The seismic response analyses of large steel structure plant are important and significant to improve the security and stability of the structure under earthquake action. Based on FEM(Finite Element Method), a 3D finite element model of a long span steel plant in Tianjin city is established, and the seismic time history analysis is calculated. The ground motion is considered, and two seismic waves are selected representative to analyze the structure. The top side of building structure under earthquake displacement and internal force at the bottom of the column response are obtained. The results show that the different types of seismic wave acceleration are of great amplitude difference and the seismic response results are not the same. The local components of structure are affected by the earthquake obviously and the stability of the structure must be enhanced to ensure the safety of the structure.

“…In the first part of the study, spans of the frames (for both CSB and PEB) were varied from 30 m to 35 m, 40 m, 45 m and 50 m and the effect of this variation is monitored in terms of weight, deflection and sideway of the frames and later on these values were also compared with the allowable values of MBMA 2006. In the next part, the bay spacing of the frames varied from 4 m to 5,6,7,8,9, and 10 m, respectively. In the third and fourth part, the seismic forces and wind forces were gradually varied.…”

Sustainable construction of ecofriendly infrastructure has been the priority of worldwide researchers. The induction of modern technology in the steel manufacturing industry has enabled designers to get the desired control over the steel section shapes and profiles resulting in efficient use of construction material and manufacturing energy required to produce these materials. The current research study is focused on the optimization of steel building costs with the use of pre-engineered building construction technology. Construction of conventional steel buildings (CSB) incorporates the use of hot rolled sections, which have uniform cross-section throughout the length. However, pre-engineered steel buildings (PEB) utilize steel sections, which are tailored and profiled based on the required loading effects. In this research study, the performance of PEB steel frames in terms of optimum use of steel sections and its comparison with the conventional steel building is presented in detail. A series of PEB and CSB steel frames is selected and subjected to various loading conditions. Frames were analyzed using Finite Element Based analysis tool and design was performed using American Institute of Steel Construction design specifications. Comparison of the frames has been established in terms of frame weights, lateral displacements (sway) and vertical displacements (deflection) of the frames. The results have clearly indicated that PEB steel frames are not only the most economical solution due to lesser weight of construction but also have shown better performance compared to CSB frames.
