Frame structure building is widely used for its advantages of flexible space, light weight, saving material, building plan can be flexibly arranged and so on. However, researches on frame structure built in the water in cold areas, under horizontal ice pressure, are very few, and there is also no ice pressure calculation method for this structure form. Combining with the damage phenomenon of Jintaizi fishing floor engineering, analyzed the causes of freezing damage from ice pressure, temperature joint, structure form, and put forward a concept of ice pressure influence width for frame structure under the effect of ice. This article provides a reference for ice pressure calculation and the design of frame structure buildings which built in the water.
