Cross-laminated timber (CLT) elements are becoming increasingly popular in multi-storey timber-based structures, which have long been built in many different countries. Various challenges are connected with constructions of this type. One such challenge is that of stabilizing the structure against vertical loads. However, the calculations of the stability bearing capacity of the CLT members in axial compression in the structural design remains unsolved in China. This study aims to determine the stability bearing capacity of the CLT members in axial compression and to propose the calculation method of the stability coefficient. First, the stability coefficient calculation theories in different national standards were analyzed, and then the stability bearing capacity of CLT elements with four slenderness ratios was investigated. Finally, based on the stability coefficient calculation formulae in the GB 50005-2017 standard and the regression method, the calculation method of the stability coefficient for CLT elements was proposed, and the values of the material parameters were determined. The result shows that the average deviation between fitting curve and calculated results of European and American standard is 5.43% and 3.73%, respectively, and the average deviation between the fitting curve and the actual test results was 8.15%. The stability coefficients calculation formulae could be used to predict the stability coefficients of CLT specimens with different slenderness ratios well.

The new arms form of radial gate—dendritic arms is introduced for the proper mechanical mechanism, however the stability design is very difficult. According to the stability theory of structure, the stability analysis model of step column with lateral restraints was proposed for dendritic arms, some equations was derived from the principle of minimum potential energy, the practical formulas of buckling bearing capacity and effective length coefficient were provided. According to an example, the accuracy on formulas was verified by finite analysis method.

Grid shell is a new type of single layer latticed shell. Joint connections of this structrue always adopt semi-rigid joints: in-plane pin joints, out-plane rigid joints. A parametric modeling method using self-designed program is proposed in this paper. Bearing capacity of the elliptic paraboloid grid shell with semi-rigid joints is analyzed. Then, the influence of section of steel bars, rise-span ratio and initial imperfection on the bearing capacity is investigated.

Conservatories at gardens by the bay in Singapore consist of Cool Dry and Cool Moist, which are intended for the display of plants that typically thrive separately in cool dry and cool moist climates. The envelope itself consists of a grid shell-arch steel structure with a double glazed skin that sits directly on the grid shell, and the arches are the main load-bearing components. This paper analyzed the stability of one single arch whose span is the longest one in the corresponding structure, including buckling analyses and non-linear full range analyses. It also carried out stability analyses on some arch segments. The results showed that the stability bearing capacity of single arches met requirements, while some arch segments didn’t. After using the stiffening ribs, the local stability reached its requirements.

The cable tower is the bearing component of long-span suspension bridges, and its structure is very high and bear large force, which determines the stability and is the key of safety control. As for the height of the main tower of a long-span suspension bridge up to 195.3 m, the finite element software ANSYS is used to establish a three-dimensional finite element model (FEM), and the effects of geometric nonlinearity and material nonlinearity on the stability of the main tower are analyzed. The calculation results show that geometrical nonlinearity and material defects have significant influence on the main tower stability, and the nonlinear stability should be considered under wind load in the design calculation.

Single-angle compression members with an eccentric load at one end were widely used in transmission towers, analyzing the stability bearing capacity become a very complex issue due to end restraint conditions and the impact of defects. Experiment method and analytical method were used to study the size of the stability capacity on four kinds of members, analytical method use energy relationship, the boundary conditions issue is simplified according to different end restraint capacity, and finally discuss the theoretical ultimate bearing capacity of the test members. Compared with the experimental results show that the elastic theory analytical solution overestimates the capacity of members, using experiment method can obtain more secure mechanical behavior of high-strength angle steel member with an eccentric load at one end.

Consistent Mode Imperfections Method based on eigenvalue buckling mode is widely adopted in the stability analysis for the spatial steel structures with initial geometrical imperfections, i.e. latticed shells, thin shells, etc. Taking the new type hybrid structure of suspendome as the analytical object, the applicability of Consistent Mode Imperfections Method is discussed. The effects on structural stability are probed arisen by the factors such as different initial reference loads and different order eigenvalue buckling modes. It is indicated that this stability analysis method can be quite fit for the spatial structures such as latticed shells, while for suspendomes, the initial reference load has a distinct effect upon the analytical result obtained by the stability analysis method. Moreover, it is not always to dominate calculating result when selecting the first order eigenvalue buckling mode as the distributing pattern of initial geometrical imperfections. As a result, some measures should be taken to improve the accuracy in evaluating the stability bearing capacity of the structures with Consistent Mode Imperfections Method based on eigenvalue buckling mode.
