Abstract

The computed behaviour of pitched roof portal frames composed of single cold formed Zed sections attached together at the eaves and apex by stiffened plates is described. A method of structural analysis using the matrix displacement method for the linear elastic response of structures composed of thin walled members is used to compute the behaviour. The theoretical behaviour is compared with that of channel section portals which were tested previously. A simplified design procedure based on a plane frame linear elastic analysis is proposed for the design of Zed section portals.
