Which of the following are major PEB components?

• A. End wall framing, brace rod, sag rods, base angle, brace angle, eave angle
• B. Column frame and roof beam
• C. Purlins
• D. Girts

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is recognizing what parts form the end wall framing and bracing system in a PEB. The end wall framing, along with its bracing hardware—brace rods, sag rods, base angles, brace angles, and eave angles—makes up the major components that establish the end wall’s structure, anchor it to the foundation, and provide resistance to wind and lateral loads. These elements are specifically associated with the end wall assembly and its bracing, which is why they’re identified as the major PEB components.

Purlins and girts are secondary framing members that support roof and wall coverings, not the primary end-wall framing and bracing set. Column frames and roof beams are important structural members as well, but the option highlighting the end wall framing and its bracing hardware captures the typical grouping of major PEB components described in this context.
