THE STUDY FOR CONSTRUCTION AND THE EXECUTION OF LARGE-SCALE COAL STORAGE FACILITY USING PANTADOME PUSH UP SYSTEM

Abstract

This paper concerns the behavior of the coal storage facility during the push up work using the pantadome system. The characteristic of the structure is the shape of the plane and the section. The plane is the heptagonal doughnut shape. The section is the mountain shape that three hinges line up on a nearly straight line upon completion. We focused on the transition of the reaction and the deformation at the push up points, transition of the movement of the hinges and the structure behavior. The analysis during the push up work and the measured results of execution are reported.
