Abstract
A new analysis method for hybrid structures in the course of construction, the “tensile force compensation analysis method”, is put forward in this paper. The construction control tensile force can be solved exactly using a few steps of compensation calculation cycles. When strings were introduced one by one in sequence during construction, subsistent tensile forces of all strings would meet their aim tensile forces if those strings were introduced to their construction control tensile forces obtained by means of the “tensile force compensation analysis method”. At the same time, the internal forces of members and displacements of the structure in every stage of tensile force introduction can be solved. Thus, this analysis method can be used in optimum construction of hybrid structures. Easy to learn and to use, it is possible to widely apply this analysis method in tensile force introduction design for hybrid structures by engineers.
