Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of portal steel frame building structures, and in particular relates to a supporting structure of a portal steel frame building, processing equipment and an installation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] As a type of planar force-bearing structural system, the portal frame structure is composed of steel columns and steel beams connected by rigid connections. The column base and the foundation are usually hinged. The roof horizontal support and the column inter-support are arranged perpendicular to the frame to form a spatially stable system. Cross supports are often used because of their reasonable and economical force. When they cannot be used, portal supports are selected. They are suitable for large-span single-story industrial and civil buildings. They have the advantages of light weight and high strength, good seismic resistance, high degree of industrialization, efficient installation, beautiful appearance, spacious interior space and cost-effectiveness.

[0003] Research shows that the failure of portal frames is mostly caused by the buckling of the flange under maximum compression. The connection between the lower flange of the inclined beam and the inner flange of the frame column is the key buckling point, so it is crucial to set a corner brace here. If it is not possible to set it, the structural safety must be ensured by increasing the cross-section of the component or setting rigid braces.

[0004] However, in actual projects, many portal frame factories have problems with the corner bracing, purlin and frame connections not meeting the specifications, such as bolt connections being changed to welding, connection angles not meeting the standards, and bolt positions not being above the centroid. This is due to rushing the site to skip drilling and directly welding, as well as construction workers not installing according to specifications or lacking correct operational knowledge. In addition, the floor height at the connection point between the roof steel beam and the corner brace is usually over 6 meters, making it difficult to detect details and measure angles on the ground after installation, posing a hidden danger to building safety. The consequence of such non-specification construction is that the flanges connected to the frame beam columns and corner braces will buckle and fail before the design load is reached, reducing the structural safety reserve and endangering the safety of the building structure.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a supporting structure of a portal steel frame building and its processing equipment and installation method to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The present invention aims to provide a support structure for a portal steel frame building, as well as its processing equipment and installation method. This approach addresses existing issues such as the angles at which corner braces connect to the frame and purlins, the location of corner brace fixing points not meeting regulatory requirements, and difficulties ensuring construction and installation quality. The aim is to ensure reasonable force distribution between the corner braces, the frame, and the purlins, facilitating construction, installation, and quality inspection.

[0007] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0008] A support structure for a portal steel frame building comprises a steel frame and purlins. The steel frame is provided with purlin supports, which secure the purlins to the steel frame via the purlin supports. A corner brace is also provided, with one end of the corner brace secured to the steel frame and the other end secured to the purlin. The angle between the corner brace and the steel frame is greater than or equal to 45 degrees, and the angle between the corner brace and the purlin is less than or equal to 45 degrees. By limiting the angles between the corner brace, the steel frame, and the purlins, the connection is ensured to be properly stressed and in compliance with regulatory requirements, effectively avoiding flange buckling failures caused by angles that do not meet requirements.

[0009] Furthermore, the fixing points of the corner braces and purlins are located above the centroid of the purlins, ensuring that the support points on the corner braces are not lower than the centroid of the purlins, meeting relevant regulatory requirements and further ensuring the reliability of the connection and the safety of the structure.

[0010] Furthermore, the purlin installation area is equipped with a corner brace installation angle marking line, which forms a 45-degree angle with the purlin's centroid. By setting the angle marking line on the purlin, construction workers are provided with clear installation guidance, facilitating accurate control of the angle between the corner brace and the steel frame and purlin during installation, thus avoiding problems caused by angle deviation.

[0011] Furthermore, the purlin installation area is equipped with a corner brace fixing point marking direction, which is set above the purlin's centroid. The clear fixing point marking direction helps construction personnel quickly and accurately determine the fixing position of the corner brace and purlin, ensuring that the fixing point is located above the purlin's centroid, thereby improving installation quality.

[0012] A processing device for the support structure of a portal steel frame building comprises a processing device body, sized to match the purlin installation area, with a purlin end stopper at one end and a purlin feed port at the other. The processing device body is provided with a spraying slot at a 45-degree angle to the bottom edge. The processing device body also has an arrowhead slot, with its bottom point positioned above the centroid of the purlin, and the arrowhead pointing upward. The processing device can conveniently spray-paint the purlins with required angle markings and fixed point orientations, facilitating subsequent installation and improving processing efficiency and quality.

[0013] A method for installing a supporting structure of a portal steel frame building includes the following installation steps:

[0014] a. Marking of purlins: put the purlins into the feeding port of the purlin processing equipment until the purlins are placed on the purlin end limit block at one end of the purlin processing equipment. Mark the positions of the spraying slots and arrow slots on the purlin processing equipment by spraying the purlins to make purlins with the marking lines of the corner brace installation angle and the marking direction of the corner brace fixing point for use; mark the purlins with the processing equipment to ensure that there are clear installation guidance marks on the purlins.

[0015] b. Set up the portal steel frame, and install the purlin support plate on the steel frame, and fix the purlins to the purlin support plate; complete the basic setting up of the portal steel frame and the preliminary installation of the purlins.

[0016] c. Install the corner brace, securing the lower end of the corner brace to the steel frame and the upper end to the purlin. Based on the corner brace installation angle markings on the purlin, set the angle between the corner brace and the steel frame to be greater than or equal to 45 degrees, and the angle between the corner brace and the purlin to be less than or equal to 45 degrees. At the same time, based on the direction of the corner brace fixing point markings on the purlin, set the fixing point of the corner brace to the purlin above the centroid of the purlin. Accurately install the corner brace according to the markings on the purlin, ensuring that the connection angle and fixing point positions meet the requirements and that the structure is properly stressed.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] By using marking lines to precisely control the angle between the corner brace and the steel frame to be ≥45 degrees and the angle between the corner brace and the purlin to be ≤45 degrees, and the fixing point to be located above the centroid of the purlin, the design avoids the risk of flange buckling caused by angle deviation and improper position of the fixing point in traditional installation, strengthens the anti-buckling capacity of the connection between the lower flange of the inclined beam and the inner flange of the rigid frame column, and directly improves the load-bearing stability of the building structure.

[0019] The non-contact sign guidance avoids physical weakening of the cross-section of the steel components, maintains the original mechanical properties of the components, and combined with precise installation positioning, enables the portal steel frame to more fully exert its structural bearing capacity when bearing the design load, and improves the structural safety reserve to the ideal state required by the regulations, significantly reducing safety hazards during the use of the building.

[0020] Visual marking lines provide an intuitive basis for quality inspection of building structures. Whether in the construction phase or later maintenance, the marking lines can be used to quickly verify the installation accuracy of corner braces, solving the problem of difficult detection of traditional high-space support structures in buildings, ensuring that the safety of the building structure throughout its life cycle is assessable and traceable.

[0021] The support structure design and processing and installation method does not change the original structural system of the portal steel frame. It achieves seamless integration with the metal frame structure through non-destructive optimization means. It is suitable for upgrading the support system of large-span industrial and civil buildings. Without affecting the building's use function, it enhances the building's comprehensive performance such as wind resistance and earthquake resistance from the structural essence.
