8. An Automobile Industry of India is organizing an
automobile expo to display the various 4-wheelers. For this expo the organizers require a design for a totally dismantleable pre-engineered steel structural system to be designed on a module of 12.5 m x 12.m and of suitable height. The flooring for this exhibition shall also be of temporary nature and preferably made out of suitable wood. You are required to design this dismantleable steel structure and flooring system (for one module). Draw 2 plans and a section at suitable scale so as to fully explain the system and methodology of construction for vertical supporting system and roofing supporting system. Also draw following details to suitable scale :–– (i) Floor plan (scale 1:50) 5 (ii) Roof plan (scale 1:50) 5 (iii) Section (scale 1:50) 6 (iv) 3 Important Joinery Details (scale 1:20) 12
