Combined with the characteristics of semi-rigid joints, the linear stiffness correction factor of horizontal bar was introduced, and the equation of effective length correction factor was obtained. By using MATLAB programming method, the three-dimensional relationship between the effective length correction factor and the influencing factors was obtained, and the entire process of the stability bearing capacity of the disc-buckle type high support system was described in detail, which improves the stability calculation theory of the high support system. The influence of setting parameters, joint bending stiffness, geometrical size, and material properties on the effective length correction factor is studied. Simultaneously, the joint bending stiffness of semi-rigid joints is determined. The area of the effective length correction factor is analyzed to optimize the design of the setting scheme using horizontal bars and vertical poles of different sizes. The results show that the lift height significantly affects the effective length correction factor during the load bearing process; the factor decreases with increasing lift height. Large transverse and longitudinal distances influence this rule during the initial load bearing. When the joint bending stiffness is less than 100 (kN\u00b7m)\/rad, the effective length correction factor decreases rapidly with an increase in joint bending stiffness. When the joint bending stiffness is greater than 100 (kN\u00b7m)\/rad, the effective length correction factor is unaffected by the joint bending stiffness. When the joint bending stiffness is large at initiation of loading, the effective length correction factor decreases with an increase in the outer diameter of the horizontal bar. When the joint bending stiffness is small, the effective length correction factor increases with an increase in the section size of the vertical pole. Therefore, the outer diameter of the horizontal bar significantly affects the effective length correction factor, and a larger diameter is more conducive to the overall stability. Furthermore, the elastic modulus effects the effective length correction factor for the unstable support system.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0276340","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,20]],"date-time":"2022-10-20T18:09:30Z","timestamp":1666289370000},"page":"e0276340","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Effective length correction factor of disc-buckle type scaffolding by considering joint bending stiffness and geometrical size"],"prefix":"10.1371","volume":"17","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0480-8774","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Jinfeng","family":"Dong","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Haiqing","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ming","family":"Lei","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zimu","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Liang","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lixin","family":"Guo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xiangen","family":"Gong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zhou","family":"Fang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"340","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"pone.0276340.ref001","unstructured":"Ministry of Housing and Urban and Rural Construction of the People\u2019s Republic of China.
