INTRODUCTION
A Warehouse is a commercial building used for storage and
distribution of goods.
Warehouses are mainly utilized by industrial manufactures,
logistical firms and other business firms as storage facilities.
Hence warehouse should be designed in such a way that
they are stable against wind forces, and structural forces are
adequate to maintain stability.
OBJECTIVE OF THE PROJECT
To the design of structural members such as
truss, columns, slab base and connections using
AUTO CADD software.
To analyse and design the truss, columns, slab
base and connections acting on the truss
members.
METHODOLOGY
Warehouse design is based on the limit state
recommendations.

Conclusion
The planning and design of ware house was designed
using AUTO CADD software
Design and analysis are calculated theoretically.
Thus warehouse design is composed of the following
things such as truss, bearing plate, columns, slab base.
The compression and tension forces acting on the
members are shown.
Thus the warehouse is designed in stimulated manner
and it is safer against dead load, live load and wind load.
