BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0030] Figure 1 This is a structural flow chart of a digital control method for pre-assembly offset of arch ribs with multi-point synchronous positioning. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 A digital control method for pre-assembly deviation of arch ribs with multi-point synchronous positioning includes the following steps: Step 1, establishing a digital model: First, according to the design drawings and parameters of the arch ribs, a three-dimensional digital model of the arch ribs is established using computer-aided design software; the model in Step 1 includes the geometric shape, size and material properties of the arch ribs, collects information about the pre-assembly site, the site plan, topography and existing facilities, adds three-dimensional models of lifting equipment and transport vehicles to the model, and integrates model elements such as the site, arch ribs, lifting equipment and transport vehicles to form a complete pre-assembly environment model.

[0033] By establishing a precise three-dimensional digital model, the geometric shape and size of the arch ribs, as well as their position in the pre-assembly site, can be intuitively displayed to ensure consistency in design and construction; by integrating elements such as lifting equipment and transport vehicles into the model, collision detection can be performed to avoid interference between equipment and the structure or environment during the actual construction process, reducing construction risks; the digital model can be used to simulate the entire pre-assembly process, including steps such as lifting, transportation and assembly. Through virtual construction rehearsals, construction plans can be optimized and errors and rework in actual operations can be reduced.

[0034] Step 2: Divide the pre-assembled units: Divide the entire arch rib into several pre-assembled units according to the structural characteristics of the arch rib and the production process requirements; each pre-assembled unit includes several arch rib segments and corresponding connection nodes; in step 2, the structural form, span, height and curvature parameters of the arch rib are analyzed to determine the division points; the size of the pre-assembled unit is determined according to the conditions of the prefabrication site, lifting capacity, storage space and processing equipment.

[0035] Step 3. Determine the pre-assembly sequence: Determine the pre-assembly sequence of each pre-assembly unit based on the structural characteristics of the arch rib and the construction process requirements.

[0036] Through in-depth analysis of the structural form, span, height and curvature parameters of the arch ribs, the rational setting of the division points can be ensured, so that the pre-assembled units can meet the structural mechanics requirements and facilitate construction; the reasonable size of the pre-assembled units can reduce the construction difficulty, make the construction process smoother, and reduce technical problems and risks in construction.

[0037] Step 4. Generate pre-assembly path: According to the pre-assembly sequence of the pre-assembly units, use computer-aided design software to generate the pre-assembly path of each pre-assembly unit; the pre-assembly path includes the moving direction, moving distance and moving speed of the pre-assembly unit; in step 4, use the software to define relevant properties for each pre-assembly unit, including weight, size and center of gravity position; use the simulation function of the software to perform virtual operations on the pre-assembly process, check the path planning, and generate the movement and lifting instructions of the pre-assembly unit based on the path planning verified by the simulation; output the planned pre-assembly path and instructions as an executable file.

[0038] The pre-assembly path generated by computer-aided design software can ensure the rationality and efficiency of the construction process and reduce unnecessary construction steps; the planning of the pre-assembly path takes into account the weight, size and center of gravity of the unit, which can ensure the safety of the lifting and moving process and reduce the risk of accidents; through software simulation of the pre-assembly process, potential problems can be discovered and resolved before actual construction, reducing on-site operational errors and rework.

[0039] Step 5. Design pre-assembly tooling: Design pre-assembly tooling based on the pre-assembly path and the structural characteristics of the arch ribs; the pre-assembly tooling includes fixtures for fixing and adjusting the arch rib segments, brackets for supporting and stabilizing the arch ribs, and measuring equipment for measuring and adjusting the position of the arch rib segments; in step 5, the measuring equipment is integrated with the computer control system to realize real-time data collection and processing, and the designed tooling and measuring system are tested to ensure the requirements of the pre-assembly process. The measuring equipment forms a measurement network covering the entire pre-assembly area by arranging multiple high-precision total stations and laser rangefinders; the measuring equipment is used to collect the spatial coordinate data of each measuring point in real time to generate a three-dimensional model of the pre-assembly area.

[0040] By designing special pre-assembly tooling, the precise positioning and adjustment of the arch rib segments during the pre-assembly process can be ensured, thereby improving the assembly accuracy of the overall structure; the integrated measuring equipment and computer control system can realize real-time data collection and processing, with a high degree of automation, reducing the errors and labor intensity of manual measurement; by arranging multiple high-precision total stations and laser rangefinders, a measurement network covering the entire pre-assembly area is formed, which can monitor the position of the arch rib segments in real time and quickly detect and adjust deviations; the spatial coordinate data collected in real time can be quickly fed back to the computer control system to quickly generate a three-dimensional model of the pre-assembly area, improving construction efficiency and decision-making speed.

[0041] Calculation of measuring point coordinates in step 5: Let measuring point P i The actual coordinates are (X i ,Y i ,Z i ), the theoretical design coordinate is (X i0 ,Y i0 ,Z i0 ), then the offset ΔP i :

[0042] ΔX i =X i -X i0 ;

[0043] ΔY i =Y i -Y i0 ;

[0044] ΔZ i =Z i -Z i0 .

[0045] Step 6. Multi-point synchronous positioning: Use pre-assembly tooling and measuring equipment to perform multi-point synchronous positioning of each pre-assembly unit; In step 6, use pre-assembly tooling and measuring equipment to place the first pre-assembly unit at the predetermined starting position, and position subsequent pre-assembly units one by one according to the pre-assembly path and construction plan. The positioning of each unit should be precisely aligned with the previous unit.

[0046] Multi-point synchronous positioning allows the construction team to simultaneously position multiple pre-assembled units, greatly improving construction efficiency and shortening the construction period; multi-point synchronous positioning reduces the adjustment work caused by inaccurate unit positioning, reduces the risks of high-altitude operations and the use of large equipment, and improves construction safety.

[0047] Step 7: Digital control of deviation: Use measuring equipment to measure the position deviation of each pre-assembled unit in real time and transmit the measured data to the computer control system; the computer control system makes real-time adjustments to each pre-assembled unit based on the measured data and control algorithm to achieve digital control of the deviation;

[0048] Calculation of the overall offset of the arch rib in step 7: Assume that the overall offset of the arch rib ΔP is the weighted average of the offsets of each measuring point, then:

[0049] Among them, w i is the weight of the i-th measurement point;

[0050] Calculation of real-time adjustment in step 7: During the adjustment process, the coordinate change of the measuring point monitored in real time is δP i :

[0051] δP i =P i new -P i current , where P i new P is the coordinate of the new measurement point after adjustment. i current The coordinates of the current measurement point.

[0052] In step seven, a control algorithm is used to process the measurement data and generate adjustment instructions. The adjustment strategy should be able to automatically identify deviations and adjust the position of the pre-assembled unit in real time. The computer control system generates adjustment instructions based on the control algorithm and adjustment strategy. The adjustment instructions are used to adjust the pre-assembled unit in real time through the actuator. The adjustment process forms a closed-loop control and the adjustment effect is fed back in real time. According to the feedback data, the control algorithm and adjustment strategy are adjusted to optimize the adjustment process.

[0053] Step 8. Pre-assembly quality inspection: During the pre-assembly process, the pre-assembly quality of the arch ribs shall be inspected regularly; the inspection content shall include the geometric shape, size and joint gap of the arch ribs; when quality problems are found, timely adjustments and processing shall be carried out.

[0054] Step 9. Pre-assembly completion: When all pre-assembly units are pre-assembled according to the pre-assembly sequence and requirements, the pre-assembly work of the entire arch rib is completed.
