SupaPurlin is a computer program for the analysis and design of SupaCee purlins manufactured by BlueScope. The sections can be designed with or without roof sheeting attached. SupaZed sections with roof sheeting can also be designed by modelling the section as an equivalent SupaCee section. The section to be designed is chosen from a library of standard sections.
PURLIN is a computer program for the analysis and design of lipped and unlipped channel, zed and hat section purlins. The sections can be designed with or without roof sheeting attached. Zed sections with roof sheeting can also be designed by modelling the section as an equivalent channel section. Program PURLIN also allows the design of back to back and boxed channels. The program can also design any symmetric or monosymmetric section by the direct strength method.
THIN-WALL is a user-friendly computer program for calculating the section properties and stresses in thin-walled cross-sections of general geometry. The program calculates the section properties, sectoral coordinate, and the longitudinal and shear stresses for the cross-section.
