Abstract: This paper presents the theory and practice of new types of long-span building structures developed at Guizhou University for the recent 25 years. The new structural systems include RC open-web sandwich plate structures, steel/RC composite open-web sandwich plate structures, prestressed RC open-web sandwich plate structures, and cast-in-place concrete round eye hollow plate structures. The mechanical characters and technical indexes of each system are described. The application of the structures is detailed in tables and photos.
