The invention relates to a method for assembling flat-bulb steel on a steel slab in ship building. The method is used for fixing the flat-bulb steel to the steel slab in ship building. The method for assembling the flat-bulb steel on the steel slab in ship building includes the steps that firstly, the steel slab is placed in a construction region, the fixing position of the flat-bulb steel is scribed and determined, and anti-toppling devices are prepared, wherein each anti-toppling device is composed of a main supporting body and longitudinal supporting feet; secondly, the flat-bulb steel is hoisted to the construction region through a crane, the two anti-toppling devices are installed on the flat-bulb steel from the two ends respectively, and the flat-bulb steel with the anti-toppling devices is placed on the steel slab; thirdly, the anti-toppling devices are adjusted according to the chalk line of the steel slab so as to change the position and the angle of the flat-bulb steel, and the flat-bulb steel vertically stands on the steel slab; fourthly, spot welding operation is firstly conducted for initial fixation, the anti-toppling devices are detached after detection qualification, and further welding fixation is conducted. The method and a special tool are convenient to install and operate, safe, reliable and high in realistic value.
