An Overview of Design and Optimization of an Industrial Shed With Gantry Girder

Abstract

The main focus of this project study is to explore and compare the design and optimization of two
types of industrial sheds: Pre-Engineering Building (PEB) with gantry girder work and the
traditional truss-type steel shed with a gantry girder. PEB structures stand out for their efficiency
and quick assembly due to pre-made components assembled on-site. Including a gantry girder in
the design supports cranes for lifting heavy loads. On the other hand, the traditional steel shed
design also features a gantry girder for crane support and is a staple in the construction sector. By
analyzing these designs using STAAD-Pro software, we evaluate factors like strength, construction
time, cost efficiency, and suitability for various industrial needs. Through this comparison, we aim
to provide valuable insights for construction professionals to determine the most suitable shed
design for their specific requirements, ensuring optimal performance and operational efficiency in
industrial settings.
