The wind-induced performance response of large-span truss curved roofs is extremely complex and changes obviously under wind load. This paper has taken the large-span steel roof of Liu Zhaike highway toll station as an example to analyze by both numerical simulations and field tests of responses of the steel canopy under wind load. In this case, simulated analysis results using finite element software were calibrated and verified by the field test results. In addition, a new method of large structure field testing was proposed which obtained the internal force and displacement of the canopy structure. Moreover, this paper analyzed and determined the actual stress state of the rectangular pipe truss. Finally, the safety condition of the roof was evaluated based on the monitoring data and the simulation of the finite element model. And the analysis methods provides references for similar engineering field tests, as well as guidance for the operation and maintenance for this project.

For steel box girder of cable-stayed bridge, which using incremental launching method, during the launching process, structural system and boundary conditions were changing, structure mechanical behaviors were complex. It was necessary to conduct a comprehensive analysis on internal force and deformation of the whole structure during the launching process. Took a cable-stayed bridge with single tower, double cable planes and steel box girder in China as an example; finite element software MIDAS Civil 2010 was used to establish a model for steel box girder, simulation analysis of the entire incremental launching process was carried out. Variation rules and envelopes of the internal force, stress, deformation and support reaction were obtained. The result showed that: the maximum value of positive bending moment after launching complete was 60% of the maximum value of positive bending moment during the launching process. The maximum value of negative bending moment after launching complete was 78% of the maximum value of negative bending moment during the launching process.

Vibration Serviceability

In recent years, the problem of the human-induced bridge vibration has attracted more and more concerns. In this paper , a steel structure footbridge named Shuang'an East in Beijing was taken as the example to collect the whole bridge vibration data and build the finite element model with the finite element software. In addition, this research changes the limitation of considering the pedestrian load as a whole with a traffic flow simulation software, which is based on social force model, applying to reflect the pedestrians' locations during walking. Comparing the simulation data with the the measured data, the vibration serviceability of footbridge will decrease with the increasing of the number of the pedestrians. The analysis results will provide reference for the dynamic characteristic of similar structures.

：Chord dome structure is a new type of hybrid prestressed spatial steel structure system, which is often used in large-span structures. During the construction of the structure, it is necessary to apply prestress to the ring cable. Taking the chord dome roof of Hebei North University gymnasium as an example, the whole process of prestressed cable construction is simulated and analyzed by using the finite element software ANSYS. The hoop cable of the dome roof can slide freely in the hoop direction, and the attribute of free sliding in the ANSYS interface is "coupling". In this paper, two kinds of simulation models, coupling and uncoupling, are established to compare, and then to explore the influence of coupling on the construction process of string dome structure.

Wind loads are key considerations in the structural design of steel roof structures, especially for large span ones. The analysis of wind loads on large span steel roof structure (LSSRS) requires large amounts of calculations. Due to combined effects of horizontal and vertical winds, the wind induced vibrations of LSSRS are analyzed with the frequency domain method as the first application of the method for the analysis of wind responses of LSSRS. A program is developed to analyze the wind-induced vibrations due to a combination of wind vibration modes. The program, which predicts the wind vibration coefficient and wind pressure acting on the LSSRS, is designed with input and output interfaces to other finite element software, resulting in preferably solving the wind load analytical problem in the design of LSSRS. The effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed method and the program are verified by numerical analyses of practical projects.

In order to ensure the prestress establishment of large-span suspendome, research on the measure-control methods for large-span suspendome during prestress construction process is performed, by summarizing the existing measure and test methods. According to engineering practice at present, the paper classifies the measure-control content of large-span suspendome during prestress construction period into two parts: internal force of cable-strut and deformation of steel structure. Taking practical project of a gymnasium as an example, the axial forces of hoop cables, radial steel tie rods and struts are measured, and also the verticality of struts. The test results are analyzed, and compared with the calculated value. The results show that, the internal forces of cable-strut and verticality of struts can both meet the design requirement, by mechanical analyzing and precise monitoring of the whole prestress construction process. The conclusion is that, before the prestress construction of large-span suspendome, construction mechanics analysis must be carried out in details to determine the control content and its target value, right measure-control methods are chosen, and then the effective establishment of prestress can be achieved.
