DESIGN AND APPLICATION OF MONOLITHIC MOVEMENT OF THE HISTORICAL BUILDING JINAN CONVENT

The Jinan convent, built in 1983, is a historical building of two-story masonry-timber structure with a loft.It was monolithiclly moved in June 2020 by Self-Propelled Modular Trailers. and which was the largest masonry structure building moved by trailers in China at that time. The determination of the movement scheme for the project, the maintance reinforcement design before the movement, the trailers layout, the underpinning structure design, and the foundation and basement design were introduced. Analysis on the force calculation of underpinning structure was conducted according to joint or separated force of the trailers and the structure. The force on the trailer beams could be calculated according to the inverted beam method. The underpinning structure within the building outline could be designed according to the masonry structure with bottom frames of supports or trailers. The underpinning structure overhanging outside the building outline needed to be strengthened as cantilever beams. According to the requirements of the reverse construction method for underground buildings, the underground structure was designed to integrate the piles and columns.
