The ultimate bearing capacity of the single-layer cylinder latticed shell structure, calculated without considering the single-member instability(P-δ effect), was not consistent to the actual value of ultimate bearing capacity in practice. The ultimate bearing capacity of the single-layer cylinder latticed shell structure was studied in detail by proposing a method of multi-element simulation, considering the member instability. The value of the ultimate bearing capacity decreased by 1.2% after considering the member instability taking a single-layer latticed shell structure with a 40m span as example. The analysis results show that the value of ultimate bearing capacity is tiny affected for the single-layer cylinder latticed shell structure with a small span and high rise-span ratio

The ultimate bearing capacity of the single-layer latticed shell structure, calculated without considering the single-member instability(P-δ effect), was not consistent to the actual value of ultimate bearing capacity in practice. It was studied in detail that the ultimate bearing capacity of the single-layer latticed shell structure considering the member instability by proposing a method of multi-element simulation. The value of the ultimate bearing capacity decreased by 15.6% after considering the member instability taking a single-layer latticed shell structure with a 40m span as example. The analysis results show that the value of ultimate bearing capacity is significantly affected for the single-layer latticed shell structure with a small span and high rise-span ratio

Studies on the static stability and the ultimate bearing capacity of vierendeel latticed shells have been carried out. The buckling modal and the whole course of instability are shown using the Finite Element Method. The ultimate bearing capacity is compared with that of the single-layer latticed shell structure. The results show that the ultimate bearing capacity of the vierendeel latticed shells is 2.87 times more than that of the single-layer lattice shell in the condition of consuming the same steel. The vierendeel latticed shell structure not only has the advantages of concision and transparency like the single layer latticed shell structure, but also has the stability and carrying capacity like double-layer latticed shell structure.

In this paper, the stability analysis of a single-layer latticed shell structure is presented using ABAQUS, with the geometric nonlinearity considered. The load-displacement curves are calculated according to the elastic and elasto-plastic hypothesis respectively. The ultimate bearing capacity of the structure and its conceivable damage mode are estimated. Finally, the nonlinear stability of this structure is assecced and the further suggstions for improving the structural performance are presented.

The Suspended Latticed Intersected Cylindrical Shell (SLICS) is a new structural system, composed by the single layer Latticed Intersected Cylindrical Shell (LICS) and the prestressed cable-strut system. Mechanical properties of this structure were investigated through nonlinear buckling analysis by the consistent imperfect buckling analysis method, compared with the single layer LICS. Structure parameters including prestress level, member section, length of bar, rise-span ratio, obliquity were analyzed. And the effect of material nonlinearity on the stability was studied. Results show that the ultimate bearing capacity of the SLICS is improved as the introduction of prestress. However the prestress level has a limited impact on the ultimate bearing capacity. And the material nonlinear is very important to the stability of the SLICS.

This paper deals with the behavior of concrete columns actuated by SMA wires winding around the column’s cylindrical surface, when the concrete column are constrained and driven in circumferential direction by the SMA wires, the column’s ultimate bearing capacity and axial deformation are mainly studied. Both theoretical research and finite element simulation are carried out. The results indicate that, the SMA’s limited recovery in reverse transformation by heating can generate circumferential prestress, which will improve the concrete column’s ultimate bearing capacity and control its deformation, so as to realize the concrete column’s recovery strengthening.

Single-layer reticulated shell structures are widely used, but their stability performance is not ideal. Moreover, they are sensitive to structural damage and imperfections, while the existing conventional design methods of increasing the cross-section, strengthening corrosion protection, and densifying the structural grid are not economical. This study employs a modified and bionic structure—a spiral single-layer reticulated shell structure—to solve the problem. First of all, according to the current Chinese design codes, its mathematical model and geometric model are designed. Then, its damage and imperfection tolerances are analyzed and compared with a traditional single-layer reticulated shell. We then propose a universal bearing capacity formula. Our research conclusions prove that the spiral single-layer reticulated shell structure has a higher tolerance to damage and imperfections while maintaining stability. Moreover, the precise bearing capacity formula proposed will help engineers to efficiently select the structure configurations in the conceptual design phase. Therefore, the spiral single-layer reticulated shell structure is worthy of popularization and application in engineering practice.

An axial compression test has been done on 12 short columns, ribbed and spiral stirrup short column filled with recycled demolished concrete lump to study the axial compression variable characteristics and ultimate bearing capacity of thin-wall T-shaped steel tube column filled with recycled demolished concrete lump. The load displacement curve has been analyzed, ultimate bearing capacity of standard formula has been compared and the reliability of finite element numerical simulation and been discussed. The result shown that the form of steel tube embedded with structural members has more effectively increased the tensility, delayed bending occurrence, enhanced the effect of restraint of core concrete and increased the ultimate bearing capacity than that the form of plain section form. The ultimate bearing capacity of ribbed form has been increased by 16.76% than non-ribbed form,and the ultimate bearing capacity of spiral stirrup form has been increased by 11.98 % than non-spiral stirrup form. The finite element simulation and the test result was identical properly.

Prestress suspendome structure is a new two-double space structure system, which is composed of single-layer spherical reticulated shells and cable-strut tensile structure, and taking full advantages of two systems. Compared to single-layer shells, stiffness and stability are improved effectively. Compared to cable dome, designing, constructing and joint treatments are simplified much more easily. In this paper, taking geometrical nonlinearity and material nonlinearity into account, the stable ultimate bearing capacity of Schwedler suspendome was analyzed theoretically by employing a nonlinear finite element method. Structural parameters of the suspendome, such as prestresses of cables, heights of struts, rise-span ratio and cable layout, which influence the structural stable ultimate load-carrying capacity, having been analyzed by employing the two-double computational mode of Schwedler suspendome of 40m span. Some valuable and reasonable conclusions are drawn for practical engineering design by theoretically analysis.
