The main function of an OWSJ is to provide direct support for roof or floor deck and to transfer the load imposed on the deck to the structural frame i.e. beam and column. In order to accurately design an OWSJ, engineers consider the joist span between bearing points, joist spacing, slope, live loads, dead loads, collateral loads, seismic loads ...
FreeCAD is a general-purpose parametric 3D computer-aided design (CAD) modeler and a building information modeling (BIM) software application with finite element method (FEM) support. [4] It is intended for mechanical engineering product design but also expands to a wider range of uses around engineering, such as architecture or electrical ...

The gusset plate is welded to a beam, and then two or three columns, beams, or truss chord are connected to the other side of the gusset plate through bolts or rivets or welds. [3] A uniform force bracing connection connects a beam, column, and one other member. The gusset plate is bolted to the column and welded to the beam.
Channel or C section girts bolted to plate cleats welded to a portal column in an industrial building. In architecture or structural engineering, a girt, also known as a sheeting rail, is a horizontal structural member in a framed wall. Girts provide lateral support to the wall panel, primarily to resist wind loads. [citation needed]
A double floor is a floor framed with joists supported by larger timbers.. In traditional timber framing there may be a single set of joists which carry both a floor and ceiling called a single floor (single joist floor, single framed floor) or two sets of joists, one carrying the floor and another carrying the ceiling called a double floor (double framed floor).
The theory that governs the design of plate girders for buildings proposed by Basler in 1960, [6] [7] should not be used in the design of SPW structures since the relatively high bending strength and stiffness of the beams and columns are expected to have a significant effect on the post-buckling behaviour. However, Basler's theory could be ...
