  • I chose to design the frame out of steel members to accommodate larger spans. Most of the spans are between 20 and 35 feet which is common for steel members. Using spans larger than that would require larger sections mainly in depth (larger moment of inertia for bending) and thus could limit the headroom. However, this could eliminate the need of some columns. If headroom is not an issue, this could be considered but it would cost more.
