Finite element analysis on integral structures of mobile steel buildings

摘要

Mobile steel building is a prefabricated building built in a factory, with advantages on moving conveniently, simple structure and scalability. There are still not enough relevant standards and requirements to conduct the design and construction of this kind of buildings. In order to precede to theoretical study on integral structures of mobile steel buildings a method which used to set up finite element analysis model about this kind of structure was proposed. This method is based on finite element analysis software, ANSYS. Using this method a two-story structure model with one box unit in each story was analyzed. Lateral deformations under design load of the integral structure were solved out by these finite element models and were compared with the former experimental results, and the results were discussed.
