The state of the tube bundle and the A-shaped frame after installation is shown in Figure 9 .

[0054] Example 6

[0055] This example takes the installation of a 100,000-kilowatt light and heat engineering air cooling island as an example. The steel structure platform is 47.58 meters long and 37.81 meters wide, divided into 7 axes and 6 rows, with 12 fans, and one side of the platform is cantilevered. The platform is cantilevered around the walkway, which is 1.45-2m wide, and the walkway is surrounded by a wind barrier wall, which is about 11 meters high.

[0056] The A-type frame is arranged in the east-west direction in the project, and there are 4 columns, in which 1170 tube bundles are installed on each column of A-type frame, each column of A-type frame is 33.96m long, and 4680 tube bundles are installed on the 4 columns of A-type frame, the tube bundles and the lower header are 10.15m long, each tube bundle is 20cm wide and 6cm high. The hoisting and installation height of the tube bundle is 18m-30m. The A-type frame is installed before the installation of the tube bundle, and the angle steel and profile steel are welded on site.

[0057] The structure of the support frame tool used in the project is that the tool material is H-shaped steel 20x20x1.2cm, the bottom quadrilateral of the three-prism frame is 10.6m long and 2.2m wide; the other two sides of the side triangle are 10.14m long, and the two middle horizontal support rods in the triangle are 5.3m long, and the overall height of the tool is 50cm. The support frame tool is designed for 2.2m interval tube bundle integral components, including but not limited to this specification, which can be flexibly assembled according to the actual situation on site. According to the crane model on site and the 30m hoisting height combined with the previous construction experience, the 2.2m integrated tube bundle specification construction is the most convenient.

[0058] The hoisting tool is composed of 4 horizontal steel bars 2.2m long and 1 vertical steel bar 10.6m long, one at each end, one 5.1m away from the end, and the steel components of the overall component are fully welded. The hoisting tool is designed for 2.2m interval tube bundle integral components, including but not limited to the structure size, and the hoisting tool is customized to fit the assembled tube bundle components.

[0059] The tube bundle is assembled on the ground by the support frame tool to form a 2.2m wide interval integral component, and after assembling the tube bundle component of each interval, the U-shaped butt joint groove plate (wing plate and width are both 2cm) is used to fix the tube bundle every 2.5m on the inside and outside of the tube bundle, and 3 U-shaped butt joint groove plates are arranged on each side for fixation, and the U-shaped butt joint groove plates on the inside and outside of the tube bundle are fixed by bolts with an interval of 24cm. In addition, 2 ear plates for hoisting are welded on the top of each side of the tube bundle 15cm away from the edge and the lifting hole is opened, and 2 ear plates for hoisting are welded on the lower header of each side of the tube bundle 15cm away from the edge and the lifting hole is opened. The positions of the eight ear plates correspond to the positions of the eight end points of the four horizontal steel bars on the hoisting tool.

[0060] The whole pipe bundle is hoisted to the A-shaped frame of the air cooling island by a crane using a hoisting tool, then the pipe bundle assembled and welded in each column of A-shaped frame is divided into 15 sections for hoisting construction, 4 columns are hoisted in 60 sections, the original 2340 times of butt welding work in the air is reduced to 56 times. Through the improvement and innovation of the construction method, the construction task of 9 section assembly hoisting can be completed every day, and the pipe bundle installation work of 4 columns of A-shaped frame, a total of 60 sections, can be completed in 7 days. The conventional construction method needs at least 15 days of construction period for the high-altitude butt welding of the pipe bundle by using two cranes, and the construction period can be saved by about 54% by using the construction method, and only one crane is needed to complete the pipe bundle installation work, and the total human resource investment is also saved by about 54%. In addition, the construction method saves at least 23 days of crane rental fee (compared with two cranes), and at least 8 days of human resource investment of a team (each team is equipped with 11 people), the innovative idea of the construction method is also applicable to the construction of various components of the module hoisted by the crane, and the application range of the innovative application method is wide, which can solve many such large-scale modular structures, components and steel structures, and achieve the purpose of cost reduction and efficiency improvement while improving the safety benefit of personnel construction.
