Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of concrete construction technology, and specifically relates to a frame and construction method for constructing arc-shaped concrete structures. Background Technology
[0002] Concrete structures play a vital role in modern architecture and infrastructure. From high-rise buildings to bridges, tunnels, and hydraulic engineering projects, the application of concrete structures is ubiquitous. However, the construction of curved concrete structures has always been a major challenge for the engineering community. Traditional straight formwork and support systems are ill-suited to the complex geometry of curved structures, leading to low construction efficiency, increased costs, and difficulty in ensuring the accuracy and quality of the structure.
[0003] In existing technologies, the construction of curved concrete structures mainly relies on the following methods:
[0004] 1. Custom-made wooden formwork: This method requires custom-made wooden formwork based on the specific curvature of each project. While it can achieve high precision, it is costly, and the formwork is difficult to reuse, which is not in line with the concept of sustainable development.
[0005] 2. Metal formwork system: Compared to wooden formwork, metal formwork offers better durability and reusability. However, it has limited flexibility, making it difficult to adapt to different curvatures, and its greater weight increases construction difficulty.
[0006] 3. Inflatable template: This innovative method uses an inflatable structure as a template. While offering high flexibility, it suffers from insufficient structural stability and difficulties in controlling surface quality.
[0007] 4. 3D Printing Technology: In recent years, 3D printing technology has made some progress in the field of concrete construction. However, large-scale application still faces challenges such as high equipment costs and material limitations.
[0008] These existing technologies have revealed many problems in practical applications:
[0009] First, precision control is difficult. Curved structures require high precision, but existing technologies struggle to achieve accurate positioning and support on complex curved surfaces.
[0010] Secondly, construction efficiency is low. Traditional methods often require a lot of manual adjustment and customization work, which prolongs the construction period and increases labor intensity.
[0011] Furthermore, there is a lack of adaptability. Most existing technologies are difficult to flexibly meet the needs of different curvatures and sizes, which limits their application scope.
[0012] Finally, there are potential issues with structural stability. Even minor deformations of the supporting structure during concrete pouring and setting can lead to quality problems in the final product.
[0013] Faced with these challenges, there is an urgent need for an innovative construction frame for curved concrete structures that can adapt to different curvature requirements while ensuring high precision and structural stability. This invention is a solution proposed to address this technical problem. Summary of the Invention
[0014] In view of this, the present invention provides a frame and construction method for constructing curved concrete structures, which can solve the technical problems existing in the prior art that make it difficult to adapt to different curvature requirements while ensuring high precision and structural stability.
[0015] This invention is implemented as follows:
[0016] The first aspect of the present invention provides a frame for constructing an arc-shaped concrete structure, comprising a support frame and a fixing plate. The support frame includes an upper support and a lower support arranged parallel to each other. The upper and lower supports have the same structure, including two arc-shaped support rods of equal length and two horizontal bars connecting the two support rods. The two support rods and the two horizontal bars form a partial annulus. The upper and lower supports are connected by multiple vertical bars, and the two ends of each vertical bar are respectively fixed to the corresponding support rods of the upper and lower supports. A reinforcing support structure is also provided within the partial annulus formed by the upper and lower supports. The reinforcing support structure consists of multiple wavy connecting rods connecting the two horizontal bars. The fixing plate is a split structure, comprising multiple plates. A splicing mechanism is provided between the plates, and the multiple plates are movably connected into a whole through the splicing mechanism. The fixing plate is fixed to the support frame by bolts.
[0017] The aforementioned annular portion is an arc-shaped structure, part of a complete annular structure, specifically:
[0018] Shape: The upper support is arc-shaped, gradually curving from one end to the other to form a smooth curve;
[0019] Composition: It consists of two arc-shaped support rods of equal length, which extend along the trajectory of the arc;
[0020] Connection: The two arc-shaped support rods are connected by two crossbars to form a stable frame structure;
[0021] Size: The size of the upper support is mainly determined by its arc length, which in turn determines the length of the arc;
[0022] Height: The height of the upper support is defined by its side length, which is the straight-line distance from one end of the arc to the other.
[0023] Degree of curvature: The degree of curvature is determined by the central angle. A smaller central angle will form a gentler arc, while a larger central angle will form a more curved arc.
[0024] Opening: Since it is a partial ring, the structure has an opening, the size of which depends on the central angle;
[0025] Symmetry: This part of the ring is usually symmetrical, with its center line as the axis.
[0026] The joining mechanism is a hinge.
[0027] Furthermore, the wave-shaped connecting rod is made of T-shaped steel.
[0028] Furthermore, the support frame, support rod, crossbar, and vertical rod are all made of L-shaped steel.

L u L is the arc length of the upper support; l h is the arc length of the lower support; u h is the side length of the upper support; l N is the side length of the lower support; v The number of vertical bars; l v Let l be the length of the vertical rod. v =h u -h l W c The preset weight of the concrete; ∈ represents the overall deformation rate of the concrete before and after solidification.
[0033] The calculation steps for the shape equation specifically include:

[0106] 1. Significantly improved precision control:
[0107] This invention employs an upper and lower support structure, connected by multiple vertical rods, to form a stable three-dimensional support system. This design significantly enhances the overall rigidity of the frame and effectively reduces deformation during concrete pouring. In particular, the introduction of the corrugated connecting rods not only provides additional support but also compensates for stress changes during concrete solidification through dynamic adjustment of their unique shape, thereby achieving higher precision geometric control.
[0108] 2. Construction efficiency is significantly improved:
[0109] The modular design of this invention makes the assembly, adjustment, and disassembly of the frame quick and easy. The standardized components of the support frame can be flexibly combined according to different project needs, greatly reducing on-site customization and adjustment time. The split structure and assembly mechanism of the fixing plate further enhance the system's flexibility, enabling the construction team to quickly adapt to the actual conditions of the construction site.
[0110] 3. Significantly enhanced adaptability:
[0111] The introduction of the wavy connecting rod is a major highlight of this invention. By adjusting the wavy parameters of the connecting rod, the frame can adapt to various curvature requirements, from small to large radii. This high degree of adjustability allows the same frame system to be applied to various types of curved structure projects, such as arch bridges, circular water towers, and curved walls.
[0112] 4. Significantly improved structural stability:
[0113] The overall frame design of this invention, particularly the application of wave-shaped connecting rods, greatly enhances the stability of the supporting structure. The wave shape not only provides a larger support area but also distributes stress more evenly. This design allows the frame to better resist dynamic loads during concrete pouring, reducing the risk of structural deformation.
[0114] In summary, the frame for constructing curved concrete structures provided by this invention solves the technical problem of existing technologies that make it difficult to adapt to different curvature requirements while ensuring high precision and structural stability.

[0164] like Figure 3 As shown, a second aspect of the present invention provides a construction method for a frame for constructing an arc-shaped concrete structure, comprising the following steps:
[0165] S10. Preparation: Study the design drawings in detail to determine the dimensions and parameters of the support frame, fixing plate, and corrugated connecting rod; prepare the required materials, including support frame components, fixing plate, bolts, and corrugated connecting rod; check the construction site to ensure that the ground is flat and stable, and perform ground treatment if necessary.
[0166] S20. Assemble the support frame: Assemble the upper and lower supports according to the design dimensions, and precisely connect the two arc-shaped support rods with crossbars to form a partial ring; install multiple vertical rods to firmly connect the upper and lower supports, and use a level and a vertical instrument to check the levelness and verticality of the support frame to ensure the stability of the overall structure.
[0167] S30. Install the corrugated connecting rod: Based on the calculated complex shape equation, precisely manufacture the corrugated connecting rod; carefully install the corrugated connecting rod at the predetermined position between the upper and lower supports to form a reinforced support structure; check each connection point to ensure that the corrugated connecting rod is firmly connected to the support frame without any looseness.
[0168] S40. Fixing plate installation: Precisely connect the various sections of the split-structure fixing plate using a hinged splicing mechanism to ensure a flat and seamless splicing; use bolts to evenly fix the fixing plate to the support frame, paying attention to uniform force; use a level to check the flatness of the fixing plate to ensure overall stability.
[0169] S50. Concrete pouring preparation: Apply release agent evenly to the surface of the fixing plate to ensure complete coverage; install the steel mesh and other necessary internal structures according to design requirements, ensuring accurate positioning; carefully check and ensure that all components are in the correct position without deviation.
[0170] S60. Concrete pouring: Prepare concrete according to the design mix ratio to ensure that the quality meets the requirements; pour concrete evenly using the layered pouring method, strictly controlling the thickness of each layer and the pouring speed; use a vibrator or other tools to fully vibrate the concrete to ensure that it is dense and free of air bubbles.
[0171] S70. Curing process: Take appropriate curing measures according to weather conditions and concrete type, including covering and watering, and regularly inspect the frame structure to ensure stability and no deformation during concrete setting; record the concrete setting condition and overall deformation rate in detail to provide a basis for subsequent work.
[0172] S80. Frame Removal: After the concrete reaches its design strength, develop a detailed removal plan; carefully remove the fixing plates first, taking care not to damage the concrete surface; then remove the corrugated connecting rods, and finally remove the support frame; strictly adhere to safety regulations throughout the process, take necessary protective measures, and ensure personnel safety and the integrity of the concrete structure.
[0173] The specific implementation methods of the above steps are described in detail below:
[0174] The specific implementation of step S10 is as follows: First, a detailed drawing review is conducted. This process uses computer-aided design (CAD) software to create an accurate digital model of the curved concrete structure using 3D modeling technology. By using parametric design methods, the dimensions and parameters of the support frame, fixing plate, and corrugated connecting rod can be quickly adjusted to adapt to different engineering needs. Specifically, the dimensions of the support frame are typically designed to be 1.2 times the total height of the structure to ensure sufficient support strength. The thickness of the fixing plate is generally selected as 10-20 mm, depending on the scale and load-bearing requirements of the concrete structure. The wavelength and amplitude of the corrugated connecting rod are determined based on the results of finite element analysis, typically with a wavelength between 500-1000 mm and an amplitude of 5%-10% of the wavelength.
[0175] Next, material preparation is carried out. The supporting structural components are made of high-strength steel with a yield strength of not less than 345 MPa to ensure sufficient rigidity and load-bearing capacity. The fixing plates are made of corrosion-resistant alloy steel plates with rust-proof surface treatment. Bolts are 10.9 grade high-strength bolts, with diameters determined based on load calculations, typically between M16 and M24. The corrugated connecting rods are made of special alloy steel with an elastic modulus of not less than 200 GPa to provide sufficient elastic deformation capacity and structural strength.
[0176] Finally, a site inspection is conducted. A total station and level are used to precisely measure the site, ensuring the ground flatness error does not exceed ±5 mm / m. If uneven areas are found, self-leveling cement grout is used for leveling, with the leveling layer thickness controlled between 20-50 mm. If necessary, foundation reinforcement is carried out, such as using cement mixing pile technology. The pile length is typically 1.5-2 times the thickness of the soft soil layer, and the pile diameter is 300-500 mm, to improve the foundation bearing capacity.
[0177] The specific implementation of step S20 is as follows: First, according to the dimensional requirements of the design drawings, each component of the upper and lower supports is precisely machined using a CNC cutting machine. The arc-shaped support rods are machined using a CNC pipe bending machine, with the bending radius accuracy controlled within ±1 mm. The length of the crossbars is calculated based on the chord length between the arc-shaped support rods and cut using a laser cutting machine, with accuracy controlled within ±0.5 mm.
[0178] During assembly, precision alignment technology is employed, and a laser positioning device is used to ensure the relative positions of each component. The connection between the arc-shaped support rod and the crossbar is achieved through high-strength welding, with a weld quality grade of no less than level two. After welding, X-ray non-destructive testing is performed to ensure weld quality. At the connection points, strain gauges are used to monitor stress distribution, ensuring that the stress concentration factor does not exceed 2.5.
[0179] The installation of the vertical poles employs precision positioning technology, using a total station for three-dimensional coordinate positioning, with positioning accuracy controlled within ±1 mm. The connection between the vertical poles and the upper and lower supports uses high-strength bolts. The bolt preload is controlled using the torque method, with the torque value calculated based on the bolt diameter and strength grade, generally controlled within 90%-110% of the design torque.
[0180] After installation, use a high-precision electronic level and plumb line to check the levelness and verticality of the support frame. The permissible deviation for levelness is no more than 1 / 1000, and the permissible deviation for verticality is no more than 1 / 2000 of the height. If any deviation exceeds the limits, use a fine-tuning mechanism for precise adjustment. During the adjustment process, use an iterative method, with each adjustment not exceeding 1 / 3 of the total deviation, to avoid structural stress caused by over-adjustment.
[0181] The specific implementation of step S30 is as follows: First, a corrugated connecting rod is designed based on the calculated complex shape equation. The corrugated connecting rod is manufactured using CNC wire cutting technology, with machining accuracy controlled within ±0.05 mm. To improve the fatigue strength of the connecting rod, surface rolling strengthening treatment is adopted, with the rolling depth controlled within 0.2-0.5 mm, increasing the surface hardness by 20%-30%.
[0182] During installation, 3D laser scanning technology is used to measure the support frame in real time, generating point cloud data. Then, the least squares method is used to fit the spatial surface equation of the actual support frame. The curve equation of the theoretical wavy connecting rod is optimally matched with the actual support frame surface to calculate the precise spatial coordinates of each connection point.
[0183] The connection process employs a high-precision robot-assisted positioning system, achieving a positioning accuracy of ±0.1 mm. The connection utilizes a specially designed quick-locking device, with the locking force controlled by a torque wrench. The torque value is set to 105%-110% of the theoretically calculated value to compensate for any potential loosening.
[0184] After installation, acoustic emission testing is used to perform non-destructive testing on each connection point, with a testing frequency range of 100kHz-1MHz, to detect any potential micro-cracks or loosening. If any abnormalities are found, adjustments or replacements are made immediately. Finally, a laser interferometer is used to measure the deformation of the overall structure, ensuring that the maximum deformation under the design load does not exceed 1 / 1000 of the support frame height.
[0185] The specific implementation of step S40 is as follows: First, using a modular design principle, the fixed plate is divided into several standardized panels. The dimensions of each panel are calculated using an optimization algorithm to minimize the number of seams and maximize the panel strength. Typically, the area of a single panel is controlled between 2 and 4 square meters.
[0186] The panels are joined using a patented hinge mechanism. This mechanism includes precision-machined tenons with a machining accuracy controlled within ±0.01 mm. During the joining process, hydraulic clamps apply uniform pressure, the pressure value of which is determined through stress-strain analysis and is generally controlled between 5-10 MPa.
[0187] After assembly, the flatness of the fixing plate is checked using a laser flatness measuring instrument. Measurement is performed using a grid method, with a grid spacing of no more than 100 mm. The maximum allowable flatness deviation is 0.5 mm / m. If local unevenness is found, precise adjustments are made using fine-tuning bolts; the adjustment amount is calculated using an interpolation algorithm.
[0188] The connection between the fixing plate and the support frame uses prestressed bolts. The number and distribution of bolts are determined through finite element analysis to ensure uniform stress distribution. The magnitude of the pre-tightening force is calculated based on the maximum hydrostatic pressure during concrete pouring, typically taken as 1.2-1.5 times the theoretical value. The pre-tightening process employs a multi-stage tightening method, with each tightening torque increment not exceeding 20% of the final design value to avoid stress concentration.
[0189] The bolts are tightened using a spiral tightening strategy, starting from the center and working outwards to ensure uniform stress distribution. During the tightening process, an ultrasonic stress meter is used to monitor the bolt stress in real time, controlling the error to within ±5%. Simultaneously, strain gauges are installed at key locations on the fixing plate to monitor its stress state, ensuring that the maximum stress does not exceed 60% of the material's yield strength.
[0190] Finally, use a high-precision inclinometer to measure the overall tilt of the fixing plate; the maximum allowable tilt angle should not exceed 0.1 degrees. If the tilt exceeds the limit, the levelness and verticality of the support frame need to be readjusted until the requirements are met.
[0191] The specific implementation of step S50 is as follows: First, a release agent is applied to the surface of the fixing plate. A nano-sized release agent is selected, with a particle size controlled between 50-100 nanometers to ensure uniform coverage and good release effect. Electrostatic spraying technology is used for application, with the spraying pressure controlled at 0.3-0.5 MPa and the spraying distance at 200-300 mm to ensure uniform atomization. The coating thickness is measured using a laser thickness gauge and controlled to be between 15-20 micrometers.
[0192] The installation of the reinforcing mesh employs computer-aided positioning technology. First, a 3D laser scanner is used to scan the actual surface of the fixing plate, generating high-precision point cloud data. Then, the equation of the actual surface is fitted using the least squares method. The theoretical reinforcing mesh layout is optimally matched with the actual surface, and the precise 3D coordinates of each reinforcing bar intersection are calculated.
[0193] The rebar mesh is tied using an automated tying robot with a positioning accuracy of ±1 mm. The stress analysis of the tying points is performed using the finite element method to determine the optimal tying position and spacing. Typically, the spacing between main bars is controlled at 100-150 mm, and the spacing between distribution bars is 150-200 mm. The tying strength is controlled by torque, generally set at 1.5-2.0 N·m.
[0194] To improve the overall performance of concrete structures, smart sensors are embedded in key areas. These include strain sensors, temperature sensors, and humidity sensors. The optimal locations for the sensors are determined using orthogonal experimental design, typically with 1-2 sensors per 10 square meters. The sensors are connected to a central monitoring system via a wireless network to monitor the stress state and curing conditions of the concrete in real time.
[0195] Finally, a comprehensive inspection is conducted. The entire structure is scanned using 3D laser scanning technology to generate a high-precision 3D model. The actual model is compared with the design model, and the Iterative Closest Point (ICP) algorithm is used to calculate the deviation. The maximum allowable deviation does not exceed 1 / 1000 of the design dimension. If any local deviation exceeds the limit, precise adjustments are required, and the adjustment amount is calculated using reverse engineering algorithms.
[0196] The specific implementation method of step S60 is as follows: First, design the concrete mix proportion according to structural requirements and environmental conditions. An orthogonal experimental design is used to consider factors such as cement type, water-cement ratio, admixture type and dosage. A mathematical model of concrete performance and various factors is established using response surface methodology to optimize the mix proportion. Generally, the water-cement ratio is controlled between 0.35 and 0.45, and the cement dosage is 350-450 kg / m³. 3 The amount of additives is 0.8%-1.2% of the total amount of adhesive material.
[0197] Concrete preparation utilizes an intelligent mixing plant. The metering accuracy of raw materials is: cement and admixtures ±1%, aggregates ±2%, water ±1%, and additives ±2%. Mixing employs a twin-shaft forced mixer, and the mixing time is determined through acoustic monitoring, typically controlled within 60-90 seconds.
[0198] The pouring process employs a layered pouring method, with each layer controlled to a thickness of 300-500 mm. The pouring speed is calculated based on pump pressure and concrete fluidity, typically controlled at 0.3-0.5 m / h. To ensure uniformity, a GPS positioning system is used to monitor the pouring location in real time, ensuring that the height difference between pouring areas does not exceed 100 mm.
[0199] The vibration is performed using an intelligent variable frequency vibrator, with the vibration frequency automatically adjusted according to the concrete slump, typically between 150-200Hz. Vibration time is monitored by an acoustic emission sensor; vibration stops when the acoustic emission signal stabilizes, usually after 15-25 seconds. The spacing between vibration points is 1.5 times the radius of action of the vibrator to ensure overlapping vibration areas.
[0200] During the pouring process, a laser rangefinder is used to monitor the deformation of the formwork in real time. The maximum allowable deformation does not exceed 1 / 1000 of the span. If excessive deformation is detected, the supporting structure needs to be adjusted promptly. At the same time, an infrared thermal imager is used to monitor the internal temperature field distribution of the concrete to ensure that the temperature difference between different parts does not exceed 20℃, in order to prevent temperature stress cracking.
[0201] The specific implementation of step S70 is as follows: First, based on meteorological data and concrete mix proportions, a hydration heat model is used to predict the temperature change curve of the concrete. Based on the prediction results, a detailed curing plan is formulated. Typically, curing begins 2-4 hours after the initial setting of the concrete and lasts for no less than 7 days.
[0202] The curing process utilizes an intelligent sprinkler system, incorporating temperature and humidity sensors to adjust the spray volume and frequency in real time. The spray water temperature is controlled within ±5℃ of the concrete surface temperature to avoid sudden temperature changes. The spray pressure is automatically adjusted using a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control algorithm, typically maintained between 0.2-0.3 MPa to ensure uniform water mist coverage.
[0203] To prevent excessive moisture evaporation, a polyethylene film is applied to the concrete surface. The film is automatically laid by a robot, ensuring a wrinkle-free and bubble-free finish. The film thickness is selected to be 0.1-0.2 mm, and the light transmittance is controlled between 10% and 20%, providing both moisture retention and adequate light exposure. The covering time is determined based on the concrete strength grade, typically 3-7 days.
[0204] During the curing process, non-contact measurement technology is used to monitor the shrinkage deformation of the concrete surface. Digital image correlation (DIC) is used, employing a high-resolution camera to capture minute surface deformations. Sampling is performed hourly with an accuracy of 0.01 mm. Based on the measurement results, curing parameters are adjusted in real time, such as increasing the spraying frequency or adjusting the covering material.
[0205] Simultaneously, an embedded smart sensor network continuously monitors the temperature, humidity, and stress state inside the concrete. Data acquisition is set to occur every 10 minutes. A neural network algorithm is used to analyze the data in real time, predicting the concrete's strength development and potential cracking risks. If any anomalies are detected, the system will automatically adjust the curing strategy or issue an alarm.
[0206] To assess the stability of the frame structure, high-precision tilt and displacement sensors were installed at key nodes. A Kalman filter algorithm was used to process the sensor data to eliminate noise. The maximum permissible tilt angle was 0.1 degrees, and the maximum displacement did not exceed 1 / 1000 of the support height. If these thresholds were exceeded, an emergency plan was immediately activated, such as adding temporary supports or adjusting the support force.
[0207] The setting process and overall deformation rate of concrete were recorded in detail. Regression analysis was used to establish a model relating concrete strength to its age. Typically, the strength development curve can be represented by the following formula:
[0208]
[0209] Among them, f c (t) represents the concrete strength at age t, f c28 The standard curing strength is 28 days, where s is the cement strength grade coefficient and t is the concrete age (days).
[0210] By monitoring data in real time, we continuously optimize model parameters and improve prediction accuracy.
[0211] The specific implementation of step S80 is as follows: First, based on the concrete strength development model and real-time monitoring data, determine the timing of formwork removal. Generally, it is required that the concrete strength reaches 75%-80% of the design strength. Non-destructive testing is performed using the rebound method and ultrasonic method to verify whether the strength meets the requirements. The testing points are arranged using a stratified sampling method, with no less than 10 testing points per 100 square meters.
[0212] A detailed demolition plan was developed, and project management software was used to optimize schedule and resources. The Critical Path Method (CPM) was used to determine the demolition sequence to minimize demolition time and resource consumption. During the demolition process, a laser scanner was used to monitor structural deformation in real time, with the maximum allowable deformation not exceeding 1 / 2000 of the span.
[0213] The removal of the fixing plate employs hydraulic jacking technology, applying force slowly and evenly to avoid impact loads. The jacking force is monitored in real time using strain gauges and controlled within 80%-90% of the design value. The removal speed is controlled at 1-2 mm / min to ensure stability. A high-speed camera records the entire process during removal to aid in subsequent analysis and improvement.
[0214] To protect the concrete surface, a special cushioning material is applied to the contact surface between the fixing plate and the concrete. This material is composed of nanoscale polymers and microspheres, with a thickness controlled at 0.5-1 mm. It can absorb minute shear forces, preventing scratches on the concrete surface. If localized adhesion is found, ultrasonic cutting technology is used for precise separation, with the cutting depth controlled at 0.1-0.2 mm.
[0215] The disassembly of the wavy connecting rod employs robot-assisted technology. A robotic arm equipped with a force feedback system precisely controls the disassembly force and angle. The disassembly torque is monitored in real time by a torque sensor and controlled within 70%-80% of the design value. In case of jamming, the system automatically adjusts the force and angle to avoid damaging the connecting structure.
[0216] The support frame was dismantled using a staged unloading method. First, hydraulic jacks were used to replace some of the support points, then the hydraulic pressure was gradually released to achieve slow unloading of the structure. The unloading speed was controlled at 1%-2% of the structure's own weight per hour. During the unloading process, fiber optic grating sensors were used to monitor structural strain, ensuring that the strain value did not exceed 90% of the design value.
[0217] Safety measures during the demolition process include: setting up a safety isolation zone extending 1.5 times the construction height; workers wearing smart safety helmets equipped with built-in positioning systems and vital sign monitors; using drones for comprehensive monitoring and real-time transmission of high-definition video streams; equipping the site with emergency rescue equipment, such as air cushions and rescue ladders, and conducting regular drills.
[0218] Finally, a comprehensive inspection of the demolished concrete structure was conducted. A high-precision point cloud model was generated using 3D laser scanning technology and compared with the design model. The least squares method was used to fit the actual surface equations, and the geometric errors were calculated. The maximum allowable error did not exceed 1 / 500 of the design dimension. Simultaneously, the impact echo method was used to detect internal defects in the structure, such as cracks or voids. The detection frequency was 50-100kHz, and the detection depth reached 300 mm.
[0219] Through the detailed implementation methods described above, high-precision assembly, stable support, accurate pouring, and safe dismantling of the frame used in the construction of curved concrete structures can be ensured, thereby guaranteeing the quality and performance of the final concrete structure. The entire process integrates multiple advanced technologies, such as computer-aided design, CNC machining, laser measurement, intelligent sensor networks, and robot-assisted construction, reflecting the intelligent and refined characteristics of modern engineering construction. Simultaneously, the application of various mathematical models and algorithms, such as finite element analysis, optimization algorithms, and neural network prediction, enables precise control and dynamic optimization of the construction process, significantly improving construction efficiency and quality.
[0220] Specifically, the principle of this invention is:
[0221] 1. Principles of Structural Mechanics:
[0222] The core of this invention lies in its unique support frame design. Parallel supports, connected by multiple vertical rods, form a three-dimensional truss structure. This design, based on the spatial stiffness theory of structural mechanics, effectively disperses and transfers loads. In particular, the partially circular structure formed by two arc-shaped support rods of equal length and two horizontal rods not only precisely matches the shape of the curved concrete structure but also provides uniform support force. This design significantly improves the overall structural stability and load-bearing capacity.
[0223] 2. Combination of wave mechanics and mechanics of materials:
[0224] The design of the wavy connecting rod is a major innovation of this invention. This design is based on the integrated application of wave mechanics and materials mechanics. The wavy shape increases the effective length of the connecting rod, improves its elastic deformation capacity, and maintains sufficient stiffness. This characteristic allows the connecting rod to dynamically adjust its shape during concrete pouring and solidification to adapt to stress changes. The wavy shape also distributes stress more evenly, reducing stress concentration and thus lowering the risk of structural failure.
[0225] 3. Dynamic Response Theory:
[0226] The frame design of this invention takes into account the dynamic load changes during concrete pouring. The shape equation of the corrugated connecting rod incorporates time-varying parameters, enabling it to simulate and respond to stress changes during the transition of concrete from a liquid to a solid state. This dynamic responsiveness allows the frame to maintain optimal support throughout construction, minimizing deformation and displacement.
[0227] 4. Modular design principle:
[0228] The modular design of the framework is based on the principles of systems engineering. Standardized component design allows the framework to be flexibly combined according to the needs of different projects. This not only improves construction efficiency but also enhances the system's adaptability. The modular design also facilitates maintenance and replacement, extending the overall system's lifespan.
[0229] 5. Mathematical Modeling and Optimization:
[0230] The shape equation of the wavy connecting rod is a complex mathematical model that incorporates multiple parameters to describe and control its shape. This equation considers factors such as the geometry of the upper and lower supports, the arrangement of the vertical members, the expected weight of the concrete, and material properties. By adjusting these parameters, the shape of the connecting rod can be optimized for different construction needs, achieving the best support effect.
[0231] 6. Principles of Materials Science:
[0232] This invention fully considers the characteristics of concrete, especially its volume changes and stress development during the transition from a liquid to a solid state. The frame design, particularly the corrugated connecting rods, adapts to these material properties, providing dynamic support and reducing the risk of cracking and deformation.
[0233] 7. Computer-Aided Design and Analysis:
[0234] The design of the complex frame structure and wavy connecting rods relies on advanced computer-aided design (CAD) and finite element analysis (FEA) technologies. These technologies allow designers to simulate and optimize the frame's performance in a virtual environment, significantly improving the accuracy and reliability of the design.

The stadium is designed to be elliptical, with an arc-shaped concrete roof spanning 120 meters, a major axis of 180 meters, and a minor axis of 150 meters. The highest point of the roof is located at the center, with a height of 35 meters, and the edge height is 25 meters. The entire roof consists of eight identical arc-shaped concrete structural units, each covering a central angle of 45 degrees. This embodiment details the construction process of one of the units.
