SECONDARY MEMBERS / COLD FORMED MEMBERS
Secondary structural framing refers to purlins, girts, eave struts, wind bracing, flange bracing, base angles, clips and other miscellaneous structural parts.
Purlins, girts and eave struts are cold formed steel members which have a minimum yield strength of 345 MPa (50,000 psi) and will conform to the physical specifications of ASTM 572 (Grade 50) or ASTM A653 (Grade 50) or equivalent.

Components of Secondary Structural Framing
Purlins and Girts
Purlins and girts are horizontal structural members used to support the roof and walls of the building. These members are typically made from cold-formed steel, with a minimum yield strength of 345 MPa (50,000 psi), conforming to the standards of ASTM 572 (Grade 50), ASTM A653 (Grade 50), or equivalent. They are available in C-section, which provides excellent load distribution and stability to the roofing system. The purlins support roof loads, while girts reinforce wall cladding, helping to transfer loads from the walls to the main structure.C-Section
The C-section design is commonly used in purlins and girts due to its strong, lightweight structure that allows easy installation. This shape is efficient in transferring loads and provides adequate support for roofing and wall panels, ensuring that the building remains secure against various forces such as wind and snow.Eave Struts
Eave struts, positioned at the intersection of the roof and wall, support both roof and wall panels. Like purlins and girts, they are also fabricated from high-strength cold-formed steel and contribute to the stability of the roof structure, especially near the building edges. Eave struts come in various shapes and sizes, designed to support the load and resist bending forces that occur along the eaves of the building.Open Web Joists
Open web joists are structural members used primarily in the roof system to support floor loads over large spans. They have an open web design, which makes them lighter while still providing the necessary strength to span considerable distances. Open web joists allow for the easy passage of electrical, plumbing, and mechanical systems, making them a practical choice for large industrial and commercial buildings.Curved Eaves
Curved eaves are a unique design element often seen in modern PEBs. They add an architectural touch while maintaining the building’s strength and structural performance. Curved eaves can also improve aerodynamics by reducing wind resistance along the edges of the roof, enhancing stability in windy conditions. Additionally, they provide a more streamlined look, contributing to the building’s aesthetic appeal.
Importance of Secondary Structural Framing in PEBs
Secondary structural framing is essential in PEBs as it not only supports the primary structure but also distributes loads evenly across the building. Each component, from purlins to eave struts, is designed to resist specific forces and provide the necessary bracing and stability to the building envelope. This framing reduces the overall weight and cost of the building while ensuring it meets structural safety standards.
