Consumable steel in clear span rigid frames?

Consumable steel in clear span rigid frames?

Consumable steel in clear span rigid frames?

(OP)
Hi,
Can anybody give some information about average of consumable steel (including rafters, purlins, roof and vertical bracings...) in common clear span rigid frames with built-in welded sections . (e.g. for Span: 50-60', bay and height: 20', roof slope:%15-20).
What are the results for truss included structures?
Thanks

(My results for rigid frames are about 6-7 lb per sqft for 30 lb/sqft snow load and in a high seismic zone.)
