 - Company News - 1Notes:

  1. Load Conditions‌:
    • Vertical Load = Uniformly distributed weight (e.g., walkways)
    • Horizontal Load = Wind/Seismic forces
  2. Material Properties‌:
    • Fiber Content: 65-70% E-glass
    • Resin: Isophthalic polyester (Corrosion-resistant)
  3. Safety Factor‌: 3:1 (Design load = Max load ÷ 3)

Span Adjustment Factors‌:

  • Outdoor Use‌: Reduce max span by 15% (UV exposure)
  • Chemical Environments‌: Reduce load capacity by 20%
  • Continuous Spans‌: Increase max span by 25% (multi-support)

Engineering Recommendations

  1. For Roof Purlins‌: Use 100×100×8 angles @ 1.5m spacing (max snow load 50kg/m²)
  2. Chemical Platforms‌: 150×150×10 angles with vinyl ester resin (+30% acid resistance)
  3. Electrical Insulation‌: Specify fire-retardant resin (UL94 V-0 rating)
