摘要

This study presents a comparative study on the structural performance of sloping roof truss and curved roof truss warehouse systems using STAAD.Pro software. Two warehouse configurations, a conventional Double Howe truss and a curved arched roof, are analyzed for a 39 m × 26 m warehouse located in Bhopal. The structural behaviour, load distribution, and overall performance are evaluated under identical loading conditions, including dead, live, and wind loads, as per Indian Standards. The analysis reveals that the curved roof structure achieved better deflection control with a maximum displacement of 7.125 mm compared to 8.838 mm for the truss system, indicating a 19.4% improvement. While the truss system exhibited higher vertical support reactions (187.7 KN), the curved system generated greater horizontal thrust (18.717 KN) due to its arch geometry. The findings suggest that although both systems have specific advantages, the curved roof configuration offers enhanced serviceability and material efficiency, making it a strong candidate for modern warehouse construction.
