Plate IV gives the roof marking and erection diagram for theroof trusses of Plates II and III. Note that the roof truss onPlates II and III is not the same as that of which Plate I is astress sheet. 17. Estimate of Cost. A rough estimate of the cost of steel inthe roof may be obtained by multiplying the weight of the purlins,in pounds, by 2^ cents; then adding to this the result obtained bymultiplying the weight of all the steel in the trusses and the bracingby 3 J cents. This will give the cost of the steel work in place withtwo coats of paint. This will give the cost closely enough
