Bei Anwendung des British Standard (BS) und des ANSI müssen die in den Tabellen aufgeführten
zulässigen Belastungen mit dem Faktor 0,85 multipliziert werden.
This structural report is an structural calculation concerning a trusssystem produced by the company
GLOBAL TRUSS. The truss types go by the names F23. The structural report is the basis for the
certification by TÜV based on EN 1999-1.
The truss system is part of a "modular construction system" with the different truss lengths
500mm, 1000mm, 1500mm, 2000mm, 2500mm, 3000mm, 3500mm, 4000mm, 4500mm and 5000mm.
The Trusses consist of one upper and two lower main chords (round tube 35 x 1,6mm), which are
arranged in a triangular shape. The trusses also consist of welded diagonal bracings (roundbars ø 8mm).
The truss type F23 is stiffened by diagonal bracings at all three sides.
The distance between system lines of the mainchords is 18,5 cm.
The trusses are connected with couplers consisting of female fittings, connectors and bolts.
The allowable loads are listed in tables (see chapter 6).
The verification of the single parts is done according the safety concept of EN 1990 with a partial safety
factor of the loading side of 1.50 for payloads.
For applications which can be calculated on the basis of other codes, the partial safety factors can be
adjusted (for example temporary structures acc. EN 13814, yF = 1.35 for payloads).
To use the resulting allowable loads with British Standard (BS) and ANSI, the allowable loads listed in
tables have to be multiplied by 0.85.
