Project Challenges: Double Impact of Typhoons and Earthquakes The coal storage bunker of Power Plant in the Philippines has been facing tests from extreme natural conditions since the planning stage: Climate Challenge : Located in a super typhoon zone with wind speeds of up to 260 kilometers per hour, it withstands fierce storms and heavy rains every year. Geological Threat : Situated in a high seismic intensity zone with Z=0.4, the structural stability must be absolutely guaranteed. Cost Pressure : The client requires strict control over overseas construction costs while ensuring safety, and also demands controllable construction periods. Ultra-Large Scale : With a total height of 48.675 meters and a foundation height of 3.0 meters, the long-span dome design poses a great challenge to structural strength for industrial projects. Solutions: Comprehensive Upgrades from Design to Materials Targeting these pain points, our overseas engineering team has tailor-made a combined solu...

Features of truss

 



From the perspective of material layout (or distribution), the truss can be regarded as a latticed beam as a whole, and its overall mechanical performance is similar to that of the beam. In the detail structure, each rod is used to re-direct the force flow (the nodes between the rods are not overlapped, and the bending moment cannot be transferred), and the overall layout is basically consistent with the main stress trace. Each rod is a secondary force rod, which is only subjected to tension and compression

Truss, especially space pipe truss, is often made into arch. However, at this time, the arch is not a pure pressure arch, and the whole arch is still dominated by bending. We can also consider it as a curved beam in a certain sense. Of course, arch camber can increase the span capacity, and the role of "axial force" in the "beam" can not be ignored at this time, but in most cases, especially when the rise-span ratio is small, the bending is still the main part.
