1.  A 20m Fink Truss are spaced at ‘S’ meters o.c. the purlins are made up of C10X20 sections and are spaced 1.1967m on centers. The truss has a height of 4m. Roof LL is ‘RLL’ N/m2 of roof surface and roof covering is assumed to be ‘RDL’ N/m2 of roof surface. Determine whether the purlins are adequate to carry such loadings.

Fy = 248 MPa. C10X20 properties: w=29.76kg/m, A=3787.09mm2, Ix=32.84x106mm4, Iy=1.17x106mm4, Zx=317.91x103mm3, Sx=258.92x103mm3, Zy=44.25x103mm3, Sy=21.47x103mm3
