Lap System
Purlins Lap System
The lap system is a further variation of the sleeved system which

is suitable for buildings with five or more bays. Extended single
span purlins are alternatively inverted and overlapped with each
other.
The lapped section has the benefit of achieving a high degree of
continuity over the purlin supports thus allowing economic section
selection.
The avoidance of sleeves means that there are fewer system
components leading to reduced site erection time.

Heavier gauge sections are fitted to the end bays with corresponding
heavy gauge sleeves to all penultimate rafter connections.
Inner bay purlins are of lighter gauge as are the inner bay sleeves
which are fitted at every connection.

for accurate Restraints should be used at mid-span for purlin spans greater than
calculations 3.5m and at third points of span for purlin spans greater than 7.5m.
For long roof slopes additional diagonal bracing may be required
depending on sheeting.
Tiled/Mansard Roof
These types of roof covering may cause bending about both

axes of the roof purlins due to their weight. In order to provide
adequate restraint roof ties should be used in lieu of anti sag ties.
The ridge purlins should be tied using a rigid apex strut. Diagonal
bracing wires are required between the top two purlins. Additional
diagonal bracing will be required for every 6m length
of roof slope.
The struts should be arranged such that the maximum
unrestrained purlin length is restricted to 2m.
The timber rafters should be joined across the apex or be fixed
to a ridge board.

Roof Variations contd
Non-restraining Cladding to Roof
Many modern cladding systems do not provide

adequate lateral restraint to the top flange of the
purlins. In this situation it is necessary to replace the
standard anti-sag ties with angle strut braces.
The struts should be arranged such that the maximum
unrestrained purlin length is restricted to 2m.
Steep Roof
For roof pitches greater than 25° diagonal bracing

should always be provided.
These diagonal wires used in conjunction with angle
strut sag bars allow for bending about both axes of
the purlin.
Rigid apex ties are also required.

Side Rail Ancillary & Accessories
BW ‘Restraint’ or ‘Supporting’ ancillaries are incorporated to reduce loading deformation of the side rails and assist in strengthening the
overall structure when loads are supplied. All loading conditions are specifically calculated, only use BW Products illustrated to ensure
correct stability under wind pressure and suction loads.
BW Side Rail Supports

BW side rail supports are manufactured from hot dipped galvanised steel (angle section 45x45x2mm)

Door and Window Trimmer Cleats
Door and Window Trimming

Cee Section members are ideal for framing
doors and windows.
When the sections are arranged so that the
web is orientated towards the opening, a
flush surface is able to accept fixing of the Window Head
door and window frames.
The flush surface is achieved by using either Door Head
Window Jamb
flush rivets or counterformed holes and
packer plates, in conjunction with standard
trimmer cleats which are sized to suit the Window Jamb
sheeting rail section being used.
Door Jamb
Cleats are either long reach or short reach
depending on cee section orientation. Window Sill
Long reach cleats are required when the Door Jamb

web is not orientated towards the opening
and for jamb to rail connections.
Short reach cleats are required when the
web is orientated towards the opening.

TECHNOLOGY
making steelwork

In certain applications it is necessary to include fire protection to some or all of the perimeter walls around the building. There are many fire
resistant wall cladding systems which are available today.
Fixing system 1 Fixing system 2

Outside Columns Inside Columns
‘Butt/Non-Continuous Rail Arrangement’, normally fixed outside ‘Sleeved Rail Arrangement’. Alternate sleeve butt/non-continuous
the columns, but can also be fitted between the columns. Allow connection to column, even number of bays. When odd bays occur,
60mm gap at rail joint for expansion. use the special sleeve. Allow 60mm gap at rail joints for expansion.
Firewall Sleeves
General Notes
The rail or cleat is slotted longitudinally (14mm x 50mm) on the
standard gauge lines. 60mm gap required between ends of rails.
Fixing bolts to all joints must be fitted with a combustible washer.
This will collapse under fire conditions, to allow movement for the
rail to expand.
The period of resistance is solely dependent on the cladding
material used, and the type of construction. A certificate should be
obtained from the cladding supplier.
All primary structural steelwork, supporting the rails and cladding,
should be fire protected.
