There has been considerable debate over the development of simplified calculation methods for thermal resistance (R-value) and thermal transmittance (U-value) for light steel frame constructions that designers can easily use. Such simplified methods have presented a particular difficulty for light steel framing constructions as compared with many other forms of construction because they must accom...

Assembled precast concrete structure (PC, Precast Concrete), steel structure and wood structure, the three technologies are self-contained systems, each with its own advantages. Assembled precast concrete structure: It is a concrete structure assembled with precast components as the main force-bearing components. It can be roughly divided into two stages: factory prefabrication and on-site assembl...

There are two main mechanical characteristics of light-frame buildings, namely load sharing and repeated and compound effects. Load sharing means that all components in the system have both division of labor and cooperation, and work together to bear the load. Even if a component fails-it is not able to bear the part of the load it should bear, it does not matter. The neighbors will take the lead ...

The steel structure of the special-shaped frame plate system adopts a thin cylindrical structure-two-die bending and forming special-shaped columns, which are connected by bolts or self-tapping screws, together with the floor structure, to form a beam, and the frame structure of the basic structure can be required according to the needs. The base structure of the shape, or the base structure of th...
