Technical measures for reinforcement of space frame steel structure

2021-08-06

The space frame structure is recognized for its aesthetics, reliability, safety and economy. While widely used, space frame structure accidents will also occasionally occur. Through the analysis of the cause of the space frame structure accident, for the different damage degree of the space frame, usually take different measures such as dismantling and reconstruction, partial  reinforcement, etc. So how to strengthen the space frame structure?

There are three main technical measures for reinforcement of grid steel structures:

  1. Sectional reinforcement method: Reinforce with steel locally or along the full length of the member, and connect it into a whole to make it bear the force together;
  2. Change the calculation diagram: add additional supports, adjust the load distribution, reduce the level of internal force, force the displacement of the statically indeterminate structure support, and reduce the peak stress;
  3. Prestressed cable method: Use high-strength cables to reinforce the weak links of the structure or improve the overall bearing capacity, rigidity and stability of the structure.

The above is the knowledge related to space frame reinforcement that I brought to you. I hope it can help you and let you use it in your life.
