| Laburpena: | The standing seam metal roof system is wind-sensitive due to its light weight and decreasing stiffness as the span increases, and in recent years there have been a number of wind-exposed damages to the structures where these roof systems have been applied. In order to study the wind-uplifted resistance reliability of different types of standing seam metal roof systems, and then to evaluate their safety level, a reliability analysis framework was developed. The proposed approach integrates the Latin Hypercube Sampling–Monte Carlo Simulation (LHS–MCS) method to assess the wind-uplifted resistance reliability of standing seam metal roof systems. Taking Jinan Yaoqiang International Airport Terminal Building’s standing seam Al-Mg-Mn roof system and Urumqi Tianshan International Airport Transportation Center’s standing seam Al-Zn-plated steel roof system as the objects of research, the research was carried out from the aspects of wind uplift test, wind tunnel test, finite element simulation, and wind-uplifted resistance reliability analysis. The study shows the following: the wind-uplifted resistance bearing capacity of the roof systems is significantly affected by the width of the roof panel, the spacing of the fixed support, the thickness of the roof panel, and the diameter of end interlocking; the effects of the differences in structural parameters and roof types are eliminated by the introduction of a damage index, and the failure forms of different types of roof systems can be unified, and the corresponding limit state function can then be deduced; based on the LHS–MCS method, the reliability indexes of the two common types of standing seam metal roof systems were obtained to be 3.0975 and 3.2850, respectively, which are lower than the requirements of the code for the first safety level, and it is recommended that reinforcement measures be prioritized at the connection points between roof panel and support, such as reducing the spacing of the fixed support or decreasing the diameter of end interlocking, to improve the structural safety. The above study can provide a reference for the safety level assessment, wind resistant design, and sustainable operation and maintenance of different types of standing seam metal roof systems. |
