Abstract:In recent years, the number of rooftop ferris wheels integrated with commercial complexes has increased. Therefore, the analysis of the interaction between the ferris wheel and commercial complexes has become more important. The fixed-cable roof ferris wheel is mainly studied. Aiming at the uneven settlement of the ferris wheel foundation column points, the midas gen software is used to carry out the numerical simulation analysis on it, and the field measurement results are compared and analyzed with the simulation results. The results verify the rationality and reliability of the numerical model obtained from the simulation. The problem of internal stress caused by the uneven settlement of the foundation column points to the fixed cable of ferris wheel is solved. The relationship between the vertical tension and settlement of asymmetrically arranged cables is revealed. A method to solve the influence of uneven settlement on the steel structure of the ferris wheel is proposed, which provide a useful reference for the design of the ferris wheel integrated with commercial complexes in Ningbo and other areas.
