          1.4DEFINITIONS
 
          A.Traditional Metal Building System: A building system that will use either continuous or simple span "Z" purlins for support of the roof covering material.
 
          B.Long Bay System (LBS): A building system that will use simple span, cold-formed, open web purlins to support the roof covering material.
 
          C.Gable Symmetrical: A continuous frame building with the ridge in the center of the building, consisting of tapered or straight columns and tapered or straight rafters. The sidewall girts may be continuous (by-passing the columns) or simple span (flush in the column line). The rafters may or may not have interior columns.
 
          D.Gable Unsymmetrical: A continuous frame building with an off-center ridge, consisting of tapered or straight columns and tapered or straight rafters. The eave height and roof slope may differ on each side of the ridge. The sidewall girts may be continuous (by-passing the columns) or simple span (flush in the column line). The rafters may or may not have interior columns.
 
          E.Single Slope: A continuous frame building which does not contain a ridge, but consists of one continuous slope from side to side. The building consists of straight or tapered columns and tapered or straight rafters. The sidewall girts may be continuous (by-passing the columns) or simple span (flush in the column line). The rafters may or may not have interior columns.
 
          F.Lean-to (LT): A building extension, which does not contain a ridge, but consists of one continuous slope from side to side. These units usually have the same roof slope and girt design as the building to which they are attached.
 
          G.Roof slope: Pitch expressed as inches of rise for each 12" of horizontal run.

          K.Acrylic-Coated Galvalume: Galvalume with a light acrylic coating such as Galvalume Plus by Bethlehem, Acrylume by National or Galvalume Plus by U.S. Steel. This coating eliminates the need for roll-forming oil and reduces the incidence of field marking by handling or foot traffic.
 
          L.Auxiliary Loads: Dynamic loads induced by cranes, conveyors, or other material handling systems.
 
          M.Collateral Loads: The weight of any non-moving equipment or material, such as ceilings, electrical or mechanical equipment, sprinkler systems, plumbing, or ceilings.

          O.Floor Live Loads: Loads induced on a floor system by occupants of a building and their furniture, equipment, etc.
 
          P.Roof Live Loads: Loads produced by maintenance activities, rain, erection activities, and other movable or moving loads but not including wind, snow, seismic, crane, or dead loads.
 
          Q.Roof Snow Loads: Gravity load induced by the weight of snow or ice on the roof, assumed to act on the horizontal projection of the roof.
 
          R.Seismic Loads: Loads acting in any direction on a structural system due to the action of an earthquake.
 
          S.Wind Loads: The loads on a structure induced by the forces of wind blowing from any horizontal direction.
