The invention provides a hoisting method for a large-span hinged type herringbone steel arch. The hoisting method comprises the steps of conducting hinge joint connection, setting hoisting points, installing hoisting rings, determining the lengths of hoisting steel wire ropes, hoisting and the like. According to the hoisting method for the large-span hinged type herringbone steel arch, due to integral and multipoint hoisting, the technical problems that hinge pin installation in high attitude is difficult, high in construction cost, low in working efficiency and the like are effectively solved. In addition, due to the facts that two hoists are used for hoisting, multipoint hoisting is adopted, and the hoisting points are set reasonably, the situation that the herringbone steel arch deforms due to lack of rigidity in the hoisting process is avoided. Due to the fact that the hoisting steel wire ropes with suitable lengths are selected, the installation angle of the herringbone steel arch is effectively controlled, and two column feet is made to be positioned on bases easily.
