Abstract
A truss is a framework that supports a roof, bridge, or other structure. Typically, it is made up of rafters, posts, and struts. An arrangement of interconnected steel pieces that forms a structure intended to span or bridge a particular kind of opening is called a steel truss. A steel truss distributes pressure or weight to weight-bearing buildings on either side of the opening. There are numerous varieties of steel trusses that are typically utilized for large roofs and bridges. Although steel can be used to improve the load-carrying capacity of any trussand it frequently isthere are a variety of steel truss types, some of which are more prevalent than others. Self-supporting, meaning it doesn't need an extra frame support structure. The buildings are built by mobile roll-forming machines established on a trailer and built on-site. The structures may be constructed without support columns, beams or trusses creating a structure with 100% useable area. Building of up to 20,000 square feet may be manufactured in a single day. In this present study, comparing the cost of roofing on Steel (Angular) Truss, Hollow Tube Truss with Self-Supporting Roof for the opening of 6 meter, 12 meter, 18 meter and 24 meter. Hollow tube truss is 40.35% and 44.15% cheaper than Steel (Angular) Truss and Self-Supporting Roof for the opening of 6 meter. Similarly 24.37% and 21.97% cheaper for the opening of 12 meter. As the length of opening increase from 12 meter Self-Supporting Roof becomes cheaper. Self- Supporting Roof is 36.26% and 4.41% cheaper than Steel (Angular) Truss and Hollow tube Truss for the opening of 18 meter. Self-Supporting Roof is 28.50% and 11.42% cheaper than Steel (Angular) Truss and Hollow tube Truss for the opening of 24 meter.
