Prestressing of lattice shell is realized by cable, and author put forward a new kind of layout: The prestressing has been brought to bear by hoop and radial element of single-layer lattice shell, which avoid cable's effect on architectural purpose. The element has been made to sleeve, and the magnitude of prestressing is dominated by bolt. Article shows an example of K6, K8 single-layer spherical lattice shell, and the prestressing have been exert on partial ribs and hoops. The prestressing has been calculated by element axial force under normal loading. Stability of shells have been studied, and show the deformation satisfy the criteria under normal loading; The ultimate capacity has been improved obviously, loads transfer is rational. The new layout of prestressing is a promising technique.

Suspended dome is a reasonable and novel type of long-span hybrid spatial structures based upon single-layer spherical lattice shell and tensegrity system. Based upon the structural force-bearing characteristics, the combined finite element model of beam elements, truss elements and cable elements is set up. A method taking the maximum displacement on nodes under earthquake acceleration of each level as dynamic response representative parameter is proposed to study the dynamic stable ultimate capacity of suspended dome by application of the incremental dynamic analysis in combination with B-R kinetic criterion. Furthermore, considering suspended dome has the clear advantage over Single-Layer Spherical Lattice Shell for a structure with a long span and a small ratio of rise to span, the influences of factors such as structural parameters, geometric parameters, and different earthquake input are investigated on dynamic stability for a kiewitt-type suspended dome with a long span and a small ratio of rise to span. Finally of suspended dome some conclusions are obtained such as the initial defects can clearly reduce dynamic stable ultimate capacity, and since the rise-span ratio, pre-stressing level and cross section area are not monotonous as variety to the structural dynamic stability, they should be optimized to enhance or improve the structural dynamic stability, which can be rules for engineering design.

Scaling Coefficient

The similarity of each scale model is verified based on the theory of similarity, deriving the similarity law of internal explosions in a single-layer spherical lattice shell structure via dimensional theory, calculated based on models with scaling coefficients of 1, 0.8, 0.6, 0.4, 0.2, and 0.1. The results show that the shock wave propagation characteristics, the distribution of the overpressure on the inner surface, the maximum dynamic response position, and the position at which the earliest explosion venting occurs are all similar to those of the original model. With the decrease of scaling coefficients, the overpressure peak value of the shock waves of each scale model, and the specific action time of the positive pressure zone, as well as specific impulse are increasingly deviated from the original model values; when the scaling coefficient is 0.1, the maximum relative error between the overpressure peak value at the measurement point and the specific action time of the positive pressure zone as well as the specific impulse and the original model value is 4.9%. Thus, it is feasible to forecast the internal explosion effect of the original structure size model by using the experiment results of the scale model with scaling coefficient λ≥0.1.

In the interest of an understanding to the imperfection stability behavior, a model of single layer spherical lattice shell was designed. The size and the pattern of initial imperfections were entirely measured. Automatic harmony loading control system and data acquisition system was used. The experiment plan, method and results have provided reference significance for the study on the stability of spatial lattice shell. The experimental results and the results of measured imperfections method were compared and analysed in detail. It is verified that measured imperfections method can accurately take into account of the effect of initial imperfections and it can be used for the supplementary checking computations of some important finished structures.

Radiant cable suspendome based on single-layer lattice shell is proposed in this paper whose cable-strut system is like that of Radiant Beam String Structure, the purpose of this paper is to do stability analysis of the structure.The linear buckling analysis of the hybrid structure and the single-layer lattice shell who has the same geometry parameters is carried out, we can preliminarily understand the stability of the hybrid structure. At the same time, nonlinear buckling analysis is carried out to study the stability of the hybrid structure under different rise-span ratios, different prestress level and half-span load. The results show that the introduction of prestressed cables greatly improve the structure's stability and reduce the structure sensitivity to original geometrical imperfection.

Single-layer hyperbolic paraboloidal latticed shell dome is adopted in the gymnasium of China University of Petroleum. And the center part of the dome employs crossed web bars in order to increase stiffness of the structure. The 1:12 scale model has been made according to the construction drawings, and the mechanical properties of the model are studied under self-weight load and design load. The regularity of the members' axial force and joints' displacements are obtained. And the results show that the deflection of dome under design load conforms to the requirement of specifications, which verified the correctness of the structure design. It is found that there is no overall instability and local instability, and the behavior of the structure is almost linear.
