Abstract
Typically, the upper part of the roof a gymnasium building is a radial inverted triangular truss structure, and the lower part is a cable structure. They are connected by vertical braces to form a self-balancing structural system. The whole roof is supported by a complex, spatial, prestressed structure comprising tilted Y-shaped laced columns. Such structures rely on the integrity of the form and the application of prestress to achieve the best performance; it is in an extremely unstable state during construction. In order to study the mechanical behavior of the structure in this process, finite element software was used to analyze the cumulative slip of the structure and the construction process of cable tension, and the simulation values were compared to the actual monitoring values. The stress and deformation of the structure in different construction stages were investigated, and a reasonable structural unloading scheme was put forward. The study results showed that the stiffness of the long-span space truss suspended dome structure gradually increased with the structural integrity during construction, and the vertical deformation decreased from 25.4 mm to 19.26 mm with the construction process. The location and magnitude of the structure’s maximum internal force and maximum stress varied greatly compared to the static analysis when considering the construction process effects. Hence, conducting a construction process analysis is necessary. The construction technology of symmetrical rotating cumulative slip proposed in this paper has the advantages of a short construction duration, safe and stable construction process, etc., providing technical references for similar engineering constructions.
