YIELD STRESS (33 or 55) Fy = 55 ksi, (379 MPa)
SLOPED DEAD LOAD DL = 8 psf, (0.383 kPa)
PROJECTED ROOF LIVE LOAD LR = 20 psf, (0.958 kPa)
NET UPWARD WIND PRESSURE WIND = 25 psf, (1.197 kPa)

LATERAL SUPPORTED BY DIAPHRAGM? 1 top flange

(0=No, 1=top flange, 2=bottom flange)
DEFLECTION LIMITATION FOR LIVE LOAD ? 1 L /240
(0=No., 1= L /240, 2= L /360, 3= L /180, 4= L /120)
THE DESIGN IS ADEQUATE.
