Abstract:To accurately simulate prestressed construction process of large-span suspendome, the initial state of construction process according to practical construction sequence is established, and the construction mechanical analysis for prestressed construction process is especially studied. Features of prestressed construction process of large-span suspendome are summarized, and the insufficiencies of the application of state variable superposition method, back analysis method, birth and death element method are analyzed. Combined with nonlinear finite element analysis method, forward algorithm for prestressed construction process based on the equivalent pre-tension is proposed, and the specific application method and procedure are given. Changzhou stadium steel roof engineering is taken as an example to verify the practicability and applicability of forward algorithm for prestressed construction process. The conclusion is that, using forward algorithm for prestressed construction process based on the equivalent pre-tension, the structure state of each construction phase can be accurately tracked, and the nonlinear contact of strut and rigid framework, interactive impact of cable force, conversion of temporary structure system, and structural geometric nonlinearity can be comprehensively considered.
