Primary Framing
Rigid Frames
Rigid Frames are essential structural components that bear the load of the entire building. They are composed of I-section members (web and flange) interconnected using connection bolts. The vertical structural members are called columns, while the horizontal members connecting the columns are known as rafters. This configuration forms the primary framing system, providing strength and stability to the structure.
End Wall Frames & Bracings
End Wall Frames play a crucial role in stabilizing the building by transferring wind loads to the foundations. Brace rods or cables are placed diagonally in the roofs and walls to enhance structural integrity. Wind Bracings act as cross-supporting members, ensuring that seismic and wind forces are evenly distributed across columns.
Crane Beams
Crane beams are a key component of the primary framing system. They rest on crane brackets and are designed to support the loading of cranes. Various types of cranes are used in industries to fulfill different purposes.
