Meera %J International Journal of Engineering Sciences and Emerging Technologies %D 2013 %I IAET %X Pre-Engineered Building (PEB) concept is a new conception of single storey industrial building construction. This methodology is versatile not only due to its quality pre-designing and prefabrication, but also due to its light weight and economical construction. The concept includes the technique of providing the best possible section according to the optimum requirement. This concept has many advantages over the Conventional Steel Building (CSB) concept of buildings with roof truss. This paper is a comparative study of PEB concept and CSB concept. The study is achieved by deigning a typical frame of a proposed Industrial Warehouse building using both the concepts and analyzing the designed frames using the structural analysis and design software Staad.Pro. %K Conventional Steel Building %K Pre-Engineered Building %K Staad.Pro %K Tapered I section. %U http://www.ijeset.com/media/0001/1N10_IJESET0502137_v5_iss2_75to82.pdf
