Abstract

The structure system of the steel roof of Tianjin Grand Theater is complex, and the stress distribution changes constantly in the unloading process. Through the simulation analysis of the whole unloading process, the stress distribution and deformation of the structure in different unloading steps were obtained. Besides, member configuration was predicated and preset in order to satisfy the target configuration when the project is completed. The simulation analysis verifies the feasibility of the unloading plan and provides a reference for the design and construction of long-span space steel structures in the future.
