Analysis of Temperature Effects During a High-rise Structure Construction

For high-rise buildings,deformation difference along the vertical members due to the cumulative temperature load is large.Then the temperature effect must be considered.Guangzhou New TV Tower is a high-rise structure.From the construction phase to its service,the structure is always exposed to harsh environment.As a special-shaped structure,temperature effects cause serious impact on the construction of the structure and induce internal forces.In this paper,the temperature effect analysis of Guangzhou New TV Tower shows that the structural deformation of temperature effect is significant.Analysis results of temperature effects on the overall structure and the temperature effects during construction process were compared.Attentions should be paid to the difference.Different temperature conditions of the structure were analyzed;some corresponding findings were gotten to provide references for the similar construction in the future.
