The invention relates to the technical field of constructional
engineering, in particular to a method for calculating the
bearing capacity of a large-span concrete-filled
steel tube arch. Comprising the steps that S1, the concrete-filled
steel tube arch is divided into a plurality of concrete-filled
steel tube beam units and subunits; s2, acquiring a
stiffness matrix of the concrete-filled steel tube beam unit; s3, applying a reference load to the concrete-filled steel tube beam unit, and calculating node pure deformation displacement of the concrete-filled steel tube beam unit under the structural coordinate
system; s4, establishing a co-rotation coordinate
system, and calculating a stress vector of each
subunit under the co-rotation coordinate
system; s5, calculating rod end resistance and unbalanced force of the concrete filled steel tube beam unit; and S6, whether the unbalanced force meets the convergence requirement or not and meets the material damage standard or not is judged, and when the conditions are met, the corresponding applied load is output to serve as the ultimate
bearing capacity. According to the method for calculating the
bearing capacity of the large-span concrete-filled steel tube arch, the calculation
workload is greatly reduced in a mode of degree-of-freedom condensation and co-rotation coordinate system conversion, and an accurate and
efficient algorithm is provided.
