Abstract
Metal building roof system design has evolved since the 1980s. Design wind and snow loads for buildings with gable roofs are updated every few years. Also, consistent research investment by the Metal Building Manufacturer Association (MBMA) and the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) has led to improvements in the strength prediction of thin-walled cold-formed steel purlins with partial bracing from the roof panels. But what about the purlins?
