Trusses

Figure 2 shows a covered sports field sector.

The span s ≅ 30 m, the span b ≅ 15 m, and the arc rise h ≅ 5 m. Figure 3 shows the structure viewed from below.

The steel structure consists mainly of not-braced steel columns, arch trusses, five longitudinal trusses (marked by the numbers), purlins, and metal roofing sheets. Figure 3 shows a schematic partial three-dimensional view of a structure sector.

Longitudinal truss 3 has diagonal members, while the remaining longitudinal trusses (1, 2, 4 and 5) do not.
