Standing seam roof system strength under uplift loading
… thesis is to verify the "base test method" for uplift loading of C- and Z-purlin supported, standing seam metal building roof systems. To achieve this end, eight sets of full-scale roof system tests were conducted. Each test set consisted of a single span base test and a three-span, multi-purlin …

Further studies of uplift loaded standing seam roof systems
… loaded standing seam roof systems. However, for uplift loaded standing seam roof systems, the base test method is still being investigated. Previous tests conducted at Virginia Tech in 1990 and 1991 have led to the belief that scatter is inherent in the results of the base test method for uplift. …

Direct Strength Method for the Flexural Design of Through-Fastened Metal Building Roof and Wall Systems under Wind Uplift or Suction
… of metal building roof and wall systems under uplift and suction wind loading is complicated because the laterally unbraced purlin and girt's free flange is compressed, and the cross-section rotates due to the shear flow. The objective of this thesis is to introduce a Direct Strength Method …
