•
NO LONG FISSURES ACCEPTED
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO BS5268 •
LOADING “To recognise the possibility of future conversion of roof trusses where habitable room areas may be provided, the designer should apply to the habitable room area a minimum live load of 1. 5 kN/ sq. m. and an appropriate dead load which should include an allowance for partitions. In the absence of detailed loading information a minimum floor dead load allowance of 0. 55 kN / sq m should be used.”

LOADING “Uned eaves overhangs 600mm and above in length, measured on plan, should be designed to carry a concentrated load of 0.9kN 300mm from the tip of the overhang measured on plan”
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO BS5268

LOADING Ceiling tie loads for water tanks should be ; – 2 x 0.45 kN for 230 or 300 litre tanks – 2x 0.675 kN for 450 litre tanks – or design to specific requirements

GIRDERS “Gaps greater than 3mm between chord should be packed with suitable material”
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO BS5268 •
GIRDERS Effective thickness of the girders shall be Kr x N x B Where; Kr 2 ply = 0.7 Kr 3 ply = 0.6 Kr 4 ply = 0.5 N = number of plies B = thickness of each ply

DESIGN RESPONSIBILITIES “It is important that the deflection of wind girders be limited. To avoid structural damage to walls or wall and ceiling finishes the Building Designer should provide the trussed rafter manufacturer with the maximum permitted deflection for the (wind) girders. In the absence of any other guidance, it is suggested that the maximum permitted deflection of wind girders should be taken as 10mm”
LIMIT DEFLECTION OF WIND GIRDERS TO 10mm MAX. UNLESS OTHERWISE INSTRUCTED BY BUILDING DESIGNER
