SP 38:1987 Handbook for the design of trusses have been widely used by the structural engineers in India. The designs were recommended 1987 version wind load provisions. The revised version of IS 875 was released in 2015 with certain additional recommendations for computation of design wind pressures in static load consideration. In this paper comparative analysis was made on A-Type trusses for 9m and 24 m spans with STAAD Pro (8i) software to determine the extent of increase of truss forces. It was inferred that the trusses forces for smaller spans are more increased when compared to larger spans.
