Structural design and optimization of large-span three-centered cylindrical reticulated shell in a coal-fired power plant

Taking the dry coal shed of a coal-fired power plant as an example, the reticulated shell structure model of large-span three-centered cylindrical is established according to the specification requirements, and its design and optimization are carried out. It is to use the full stress design method to establish multiple comparison models by adjusting the thickness of the grid, to do the analysis and calculation for obtaining the comparison results of steel consumption, maximum vertical displacement and overall stability of different models, and then to determine the optimal span ratio of the large-span reticulated shell structure. All of these aim to draw relevant conclusions and provide reference for the design and optimization of similar large-span three-centered cylindrical reticulated shell engineering.
