Hello Sir,
I am a civil Engineer designer since 1995. therfore my humble suggestion to you will be to give this job to an engineer with the relevant expirience with such structures.
Just for you to understand, these are the issues that you requiered to solve in to your design:
1. Design the conceptual structure and declare the geometry of it. wheather you will design a 2D trusses, or maybe 3D trusses (which can reduce the amount of steel in such big structure to about 70%). Does the static system will drive moment to the foundations or the trusses will be connected through hinges, to reduce the moment at the foundation level to 0.
2. Declering the wind loads on the scturcture.
3. Solving the static solution of the structure as a whole
4. Solving the dynamic solution of the structure as a whole.
5. Calculating the seismic loads
6. DEsigning the whole structure for dynamic loads (such as seismic). If an overhead crance will be installed, these load shal be take into considaration as well.
7. impliment changes in the initial design due to the dynamic analysis.
8. now, the real thing: start the design of the conections: both the static design and the dynamic design.
as you can see, each of the above is a whole world that need to be built on expirience, and abook is not so recomended here.
best regards,
Ilan

Subject: TUBULAR TRUSS
Hello every body,
I live and work in Nepal and presently am involved in design and construction of industrial and storage buildings. I need help in designing tubular trusses spanning 100' to 150' wide buildings. The design should include wind loads with seismic considerations. If someone could suggest appropriate book on designing steel structures?
