Comparative Structural Analysis Of Industrial Buildings Designed With Peb And Tube Sections

Abstract

This Study Presents A Comprehensive Review Of The Structural Performance, Design Considerations, And Analytical Approaches Associated With Pre-Engineered Buildings (PEB) Used In Industrial Warehouses, With Specific Attention To Accidental Loads. Industrial Structures Demand Rapid Construction, Cost Efficiency, And Reliable Performance Under Varying Loads, Making PEB Systems A Preferred Alternative To Conventional Steel Buildings (CSB). The Paper Analyzes Literature Focused On The Use Of Tapered Members, Prefabricated Components, And Tube Sections That Enhance Structural Efficiency, Reduce Steel Consumption, And Improve Stability. Advanced Software Tools Such As STAAD.Pro Enable Accurate Modeling, Load Evaluation, And Optimization Of Industrial Frames, Ensuring Safe Performance Under Dead, Live, Wind, Seismic, And Accidental Loads. The Review Highlights That PEB Structures Offer 30–50% Lighter Framing, Reduced Foundation Loads, Shorter Construction Timelines, And Better Architectural Flexibility Compared With CSB Systems. Additionally, Sustainability Advantages Such As Recyclability, Reduced Waste Generation, And Minimized Carbon Footprint Strengthen The Relevance Of PEB Technology In Modern Construction. Despite Notable Progress, Research Gaps Exist In Long-term Durability, Lifecycle Sustainability Assessment, And Integration Of Smart Monitoring Technologies. Overall, This Review Synthesizes The Advantages, Limitations, And Future Prospects Of PEB Systems For Industrial Warehouse Applications.
