The invention discloses a building translation device and a building translation construction method, and relates to the technical field of building moving
engineering. The translation device comprises a travelling mechanism, a power mechanism for supplying power to the travelling mechanism and a moving rail arranged on a rammed foundation. The moving rail is in a split and
assembly type, the travelling mechanism comprises an
underpinning beam for bearing a building, and rolling shafts are arranged between the
underpinning beam and the top face of the moving rail; the building translation construction method comprises the following steps of prefabricating a rail unit and a counter-force member, reinforcing the building, manufacturing the
underpinning beam, treating the foundation, laying a steel
deck, laying the moving rail, installing a jack and the counter-force member, conducting integral building translation, removing the jack and the prefabricated rail beam and conducting building connection with a new foundation. By means of the split and
assembly type moving rail, the construction processes of building translation can be simplified, the construction progress is improved, the safety and stability of the building in the translation process are ensured, meanwhile, the device can be recycled,
building material consumption is reduced, the construction cost is saved, and the building rubbish
discharge is reduced.
