ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF PRE-ENGINEERED BUILDING USING STAAD PRO

This project focuses on the design of a casting yard using the Pre-Engineered Building (PEB) concept. Unlike conventional steel structures that rely on standard hot-rolled sections and often result in material wastage, PEBs use customized tapered sections fabricated from standard steel plates, allowing efficient material distribution and minimizing steel usage in low-stress areas. PEBs offer several advantages, including a 30–40% reduction in both steel consumption and construction time, making them highly cost-effective. Their prefabricated components enable faster project execution, improved quality control, and minimal on-site disruption. The flexibility in design allows the structure to meet specific architectural and industrial requirements while also supporting future expansion or modification. In this project, the casting yard—a covered facility for producing precast concrete elements such as I-girders, beams, and slabs—is planned with tailored functionality, ensuring adequate space, structural support, ventilation, and durability for heavy-duty operations. The use of the PEB system in such an application ensures a smart, modern, and sustainable approach to construction, delivering both efficiency and long-term value.
