Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of civil engineering structure construction, based on the basic principles of steel structure, the bearing capacity theory of steel pipe intersecting node and the bearing capacity theory of bolt end plate node, a design method of "steel pipe truss + steel frame" type elevator shaft structure formed by two plane steel pipe trusses through H-shaped steel beams is proposed; the structural characteristics are as follows: the chord and web of the plane steel pipe truss are both rectangular steel pipes, and the web and chord are almost flush on one side, the steel pipe truss node is an eccentric K-shaped gap type intersecting node, the two plane steel pipe trusses are connected through single-sided bolts and H-shaped steel beams with both ends welded end plates to form a steel pipe column (truss chord serving as column)-H-shaped steel beam steel frame, thus forming an elevator shaft structure with a steel pipe truss force mode perpendicular to the building direction of the existing building and a steel frame (steel pipe column-H-shaped steel beam) force mode parallel to the building direction of the existing building, which can realize different elevator shaft installation schemes according to different requirements such as building height. BACKGROUND

[0002] Many old communities have the problem of inconvenience in going up and down the building, so installing elevators in old communities has become an important livelihood project. In order to reduce the impact on the existing old community building structure and to improve the construction efficiency of the elevator shaft structure, many times the steel structure independent of the existing building structure is used to install the elevator shaft structure. Since it is located outside the existing building, the elevator steel structure should have sufficient bearing capacity and lateral stiffness to resist wind load and other actions. At the same time, the roads in old communities are narrow and the space is small, so large construction equipment often cannot enter, so the designed elevator steel structure should have high lateral stiffness, high bearing capacity, convenient transportation and construction, etc.

[0003] Nowadays, more and more elevator shaft steel structures are put into use, but the types of elevator shaft structures are few, mostly angle steel trusses and steel frame structures. Taking the existing elevator shaft steel pipe frame as an example, the space frame structure is completed in the processing plant or two sections (when the truck length is not enough), and then transported to the site for splicing. Since it is a space frame, the truck space utilization efficiency is low, so the transportation efficiency is low. In addition, the node of the steel pipe frame structure is similar to the T-shaped rectangular steel pipe intersecting node, and the node bearing capacity and node stiffness (it is difficult to achieve rigid node) are low. Secondly, the elevator shaft steel pipe frame structure has a large height-width ratio and weak overall lateral stiffness, and when subjected to large wind load or earthquake action, it often needs to be supported by the existing building, thereby generating additional force on the existing building. In order to meet the overall bearing capacity and stiffness requirements of the frame, it is often necessary to strengthen the node, or increase the section and wall thickness of the steel pipe column (beam), resulting in rising costs and waste of materials. The present application makes full use of the strength theory of steel pipe nodes to maximize the bearing capacity, construction efficiency and material utilization, and can maximize the construction requirements of elevator shaft installation under different conditions. SUMMARY

[0004] In order to overcome the problems of the existing elevator shafts, the application provides a construction method of the assembled steel pipe truss elevator shaft structure, which reduces the construction difficulty, improves the construction and transportation efficiency, and reduces the cost.
