Lattice section frame Hinge support for large span girder/truss & frame
Use for 100 – 150 m span Under large reaction, can be several hundred
tons
hx = L/ 12 – L/ 20
bụng
The change in slope of the deflection curve
Frame types: (due to rafter deflection or temperature
Two hinge frame (L= 60–120m): change) can be affected to the support
performance
Base hinge: Large lateral displacement
Top column hinge: Simple for erection
but large bending moment in girder

Arch section depth: L/ 30 - L/ 60
Common parallel chords. For large span, the segment
near the support is linear
c) The web system can be triangular with the vertical (a,b)
or the triangular (c). The vertical may be perpendicular
to the chord or in vertical direction For easy transportation, the arch is divided into segments of 6 - 9 m

Structural features:
High space rigidity, large spanning, small
depth (1/ 15 to 1/ 20 span)
Many identical members and nodes induces
the typical and standardization task
The structure can be supported by walls,
boundary trusses or columns. When
supported by columns, it is located as the
cantilevered structure to reduce the mid-
length bending moment and then it is lighter
Normally, installing the structure on the
