The support system is composed of various supporting components (such as structural steel, steel pipes, and reinforced concrete components) assembled using bolts, welding, or snap-fit ​​connections. Functionally, it can be divided into:

 

Roof Support System: Includes horizontal, longitudinal, and vertical supports, forming a spatial truss structure through purlins and roof trusses. Specifically, the roof support system includes horizontal supports, longitudinal supports, vertical supports, tie rods, and corner braces to improve overall stiffness and stability.

 

Column Support System: Arranged along the longitudinal columns of the building, using a cross-shaped or V-shaped structure, it bears the wind loads from the gable walls and crane loads. The functions of column supports also include ensuring the longitudinal stability and stiffness of the building, determining the calculated length of the columns, and withstanding temperature stress and seismic forces. Its components include column supports for the upper, middle, and lower columns, as well as vertical supports and longitudinal tie rods at the ends of the roof trusses.

 

Foundation Pit Support System: Composed of walers, braces, corner braces, and columns, it transmits earth pressure and controls the deformation of the retaining structure.
