Timber structures are susceptible to moisture, contamination, and pest infestation, which can compromise their integrity and pose a significant fire hazard. Despite these drawbacks, timber's lightweight properties, eco-friendliness, and alignment with current architectural trends emphasizing sustainability make it an attractive option for construction. Moreover, timber structures offer economic benefits and provide a natural aesthetic that regulates building temperature and humidity. In recent years, timber domes have gained popularity due to their high recyclability, lightness, and improved fire resistance. Researchers are exploring hybrid timber and steel domes to enhance stability and rigidity. However, shallow dome structures still face challenges related to structural instability. This study investigates stability problems associated with timber domes, the behavior of timber and steel hybrid domes, and the impact of timber member positioning on dome stability and critical load levels. The paper analyzes unstable buckling in single-layer lattice domes using an incremental analysis method. The critical buckling load of the domes is examined based on the arrangement of timber members in the inclined and horizontal directions. The analysis shows that nodal snapping is observed in the case of a concentrated load, whereas snap-back is also observed in the case of a uniform load. Furthermore, the use of inclined timber and horizontal steel members in the lattice dome design provides adequate stability.

대공간 단층래티스 돔의 골조프레임 재질로는 알루미늄, 목재, 그리고 강재 등이 사용된다. 소규모 돔에서는 알루미 늄, 목재 등이 사용되는 사례도 많이 있지만, 300m 이상의 대공간 돔에서는 강재를 주로 사용하며, 강재의 단면 형상은 강관 또는 H형강 등이 유리하다. H형강은 기성재가 시중에 판매되고 있어 다양한 종류를 선택할 수 있으며, 지붕 마감 공사 시 시공 성이 우수하다. 본 연구의 목적은 H형강 단면을 사용한 스팬 300m 단층래티스 돔의 좌굴특성을 연구하는 것이다.

세계적으로 대공간 건축물의 수요가 점점 증가하고 있는 추세에 따라 단층 래티스 돔 구조 시스템은 단순한 외관과 간단한 그리드 패턴으로 인해 300m 공간 구조로 널리 채택 될 것입니다. 선행 연구에서 300m 길이의 단층 래티스 돔에 자중 및 적설 하중을 가했을 때 강재를 이용한 골조 시스템을 이용하여 단층 래티스 돔의 구조 안정성을 대략적으로 파악 하였다. 강성 연결로 되어있는 300m 단층 래티스 스팬의 스팬에 대한 안정성 연구는 이미 많이 수행되었지만 연결부의 강성에 따른 좌굴특성에 대한 연구는 많지 않습니다. 따라서 연구자들이 실제 설계에 적용 할 연구 데이터가 많지 않기 때문에이 구조의 다양한 연결 조건을 연구 할 필요가 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 연결 조건에 따라 300M 단층 래티스 스팬의 좌굴 특성을 분석하여 대공간 단층 래티스 돔의 설계자들에게 도움을 주고자 한다.

As the national income grows, there is a growing demand for buildings that require long span structures such as exhibition facilities, sports facilities, special industrial facilities, and aerospace facilities. Single-layer latticed dome is one of representative llong span structures. But single layer latticed domes are apt to occur the unstable phenomena that are called “buckling” because of the lack of strength of members and instability of structures, etc. In the previous study, the structural stability of a single-layer lattice dome was roughly grasped by a frame structural system using a ready-made steel when a self-weight and a snow load were applied to a single-layer latticed dome having a span of 300 m and a height of 75 m. However, a systematic study of a 300m single layer lattice dome with various rise-span ratios was not performed. Therefore, it is necessary to study various conditions of this structure because the researchers do not have much research data to apply to actual design. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to verify the buckling characteristics of span 300M single-layer latticed dome with rise-span ratio

In recent years, single layer latticed domes have attracted many designers and researchers’s attention all over the world, because single layer latticed domes as space structure are of great advantage in not only mechanical rationality but also function, fabrication, construction and economic aspect. Yamada developed the shape factor S which represents the shape of spherical latticed dome from a structural perspective as well as a geometric perspective. According to a prior study, the structural behavior and the buckling characteristics of the latticed dome were mostly noticeable when the shape factor of latticed dome was in the range of 1.5 to 5. That is, S, in the range of 1.5 to 5, are able to estimate not only overall buckling, but also member buckling and nodal buckling. In this study, we developed shape models using various size of members with the fixed rise-span ratio. One particular characteristic of the latticed dome is that it is not only light in weight but also high in strength. But the aiming at the use of light-weight materials and at the minimized section of members may result in buckling to cause an unstable state of the overall structure when the external force reaches a limitation. Especially, the structural strength is disadvantageous to the snow loads than the earthquake loads because of light-weight, and is greatly affected by the conditions of loading. This paper is to develop the structural stability according to the shapes and load conditions for single-layer latticed spherical dome with 300m span.

In recent years, single layer latticed domes have attracted many designers and researchers's attention all over the world, because single layer latticed domes as space structure are of great advantage in not only mechanical rationality but also function, fabrication, construction and economic aspect. One of the most important factor, in building of single-layer single-layer lattice spherical dome with 300m span, is to ensure the structural safety. Network pattern of single layer latticed domes can be infinitely taken into account. The typical network patterns are triangle, square, hexagon etc. Especially triangular network pattern has mechanically more advantage than the other network patterns because of having not only a large equivalent shearing rigidity but also a large equivalent bending rigidity and axial rigidity. Among the triangular network pattern, that is, 3 way grid pattern, there are many mechanical differences according to the arranging methods of members. In order to ensure the structural stability of single-layer latticed dome with 3 way grid, designers are required to maintain a constant member length and the member angle. In order to achieve this, it is important to search the member array that the standard deviation of the member lengths and angles is the smallest. This paper is to develop the arrangement of member and to verify its validity for single-layer latticed spherical dome with 300m span.

The single layer latticed domes have attracted many designers and researchers's attention all of the world, because these structures as spatial structure are of great advantage in not only mechanical rationality but also function, fabrication, construction and economic aspect. But single layer latticed domes are apt to occur the unstable phenomena that are called "buckling" because of the lack of strength of members, instability of structural shape, etc. In the case of latticed dome, there are several types of buckling mode such as overall buckling, local buckling, and member buckling according to the shape of dome, section type of member, the size of member, junction's condition of member and so on. There are many methods to increase the buckling strength of the single layer latticed dome, that is, with the change of geometrical shape of dome, the reinforcement of buckled member, etc. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to verify the reinforcement effect of buckled member when designers reinforce the buckled member to increase the buckling strength of single layer latticed dome with 3-way grid.

The large-space single-layer lattice dome is relatively simpler in terms of the arrangement of the various framework members and of the design of the junction than the multi-layered lattice dome, can reduce the numbers and quantity of the framework members, and has the merit of exposing the beauty of the framework as it stands. The single-layer lattice dome, however, requires a stability investigation of the whole structure itself, along with an analysis of the stress of the framework members, because an unstable phenomenon called "buckling" occurs when its weight reaches critical levels. Many researchers have systematically conducted researches on the stability evaluation of the single-layer lattice dome. No construction case of a single-layer lattice dome with a 300-m-long span, however, has yet been reported anywhere in the world. The large-space dome structure is difficult to erect due to the gigantic span and higher ceiling compared with other common buildings, and its construction cost is generally huge. The method of erecting a structure causes major differences in the construction cost and period. Therefore, many researchers have been conducting various researches on the method of erecting such structure. The step-up method developed by these authors can reduce the construction cost and period to a great extent compared with the other general methods, but the application of this method inevitably requires the development of system supports in the center section as well as pre-existing supports in the boundary sections. In this research, the safety during the construction of a single-layer lattice dome with 300-m-long span using pre-existing materials was examined in the aspect of structural strength, and the basic data required for manufacturing the supports in the application of the step-up method developed by these authors during the erection of the roof structure were obtained.

대공간 구조형식에는 기존의 기둥-보 구조형식에서 벗어나 쉘구조형식과 같은 형태저항 구조형식이 가장 유효한 구조형식으로 인식되고 있다. 특히 지간 200m~300m 이상의 대공간구주 형식으로는 중량구조인 연속체의 쉘보다는 래티스 돔과 같은 공간 트러스형식 등의 유리하다. 시공, 제작상의 편리성, 구조미 등을 이유로 복층래티스 돔과 더불어 단층의 래티스 돔 형식도 실제 구조물에서 많이 적용되고 있다. 그러나 대공간 단층 래티스 돔의 경우 아직까지 외력의 작용으로 인한 변형과 파괴경로가 명확하게 해명되지 못한 부분이 있다. 본 연구에서는 대공간 구조형식에 적합한 래티스 돔을 대상으로 좌굴의 특성을 규명하여 안정적인 구조 설계의 기초 자료를 제시하기 위하여 실험을 수행하였다. 주된 실험변소는 격자의 간격과 돔의 지붕 강성 유무를 대상을 하였으며, 격자의 간격은 돔을 4분할, 5분할, 6분할, 7분할로 하여 정하였다. 가력은 돔의 전면에 걸쳐 구심의 등분포하중이 작용하도록 하였다.

단층 래티스 돔은 작은 단면의 선 부재 조합으로 전체구조물이 구성되는 특성상 구성부재의 세장비, 부재 반개각 하중조건, 접합부 특성 등에 매우 큰 영향을 받으므로, 비선형 좌굴해석에 의한 좌굴하중을 사용해야 하지만 여러 가지 현실적 제약이나 문제점 등에 의해 이러한 것이 제대로 반영되지 않은 설계가 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 이유로 돔 구조물의 설계 시 부재의 과다 설계, 자유로운 형상 설계의 제약 등의 문제점들이 나타나는 것이 지금의 현실이다. 따라서 이 논문의 목적은 위에서 언급된 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 고유치 해석을 통한 선형 좌굴해석에 기초한 비선형 좌굴하중을 예측하고 이를 이용함으로서 보다 효과적인 설계를 가능케 하는 설계식을 제안하는 데 있다.

In Single-layer latticed domes with rectangular network which is composed of ring of circumferential direction and rafter of longitudinal direction, that is, rib domes, if we use the cross-membered junction's method for the advantage in fabrication and construction, the eccentricity is occurred in the nodal point of crossing members. This paper is aimed at investigating the buckling characteristics for the effect of eccentricity according to rise-span ratios and distance of eccentricity. Analysis method is based on FEM dealing with the geometrically nonlinear deflection problems. The conclusion were given as follows: 1. The maximum decreasing ratio of buckling strength due to the junction's eccentricity is about 60% in models of this paper. 2. In the increasing ratio of buckling strength for rise-span ratio, that of Type 3 models is larger than that of type 2 models. On the other hand, that of Type 2 mode is larger than that of Type 3 for eccentricity-distance. 3. In the viewpoint of the value of buckling strength, that of Type 2 models is larger than that of type 3 models. The effect of the junction's rigidity on buckling strength is not great for overall models. Therefore if we use the cross-membered junction's method for the advantage in fabrication and construction, the method of Type 2 will have the great advantage of that of Type 3.
