Roof joists are spaced at 2m and span 6m between supporting girders, and joist depth of 600mm. The allowable deflection limits for OWSJ are L/360 under snow load. The OWSJS are subjected to a dead load of 2.96kPa which includes the estimate joist weight of 0.15kPa, an occupancy load of 2.4kPa, and the following: SULS 1.99kPa SSLS= 1.25kPa Select a suitable OWSJ which satisfies the limit states design.
