Evaluation of Structural Safety of a Steel School Building with Partially Modified Structural System

Abstract

In order to meet the basic needs of foreign asylum seekers coming to our countries such as shelter, nutrition, and education, our government has established temporary shelters in different regions of our country. One of them is a completely disassembled steel school building with 23 classrooms, the carrier system of which is steel construction, in order to meet the educational needs of the temporary shelter located in the Ceylanpınar district of Şanlıurfa city. The roof of this school was designed as a plane truss system made of steel construction. The truss system, which was designed as a single part in the architectural and static application projects of the building, was separated from the symmetry axis and manufactured in two parts since it provides ease of transportation, manufacturing, and assembly by the contractor company. These parts were connected with bolts during manufacturing. In this study, as a result of the examinations carried out according to the regulations and standards in force at the time the building was designed, it was determined that constructing the system in two parts and connecting it with bolts does not pose a problem in terms of service safety of the building.
