Abstract

There are two ways of trial assembly for steel structures which are well known as the physical trial assembly and the virtual trial assembly. The physical trial assembly is of high reliability but low economy. Nevertheless, the virtual trial assembly can save cost to the extreme extent and shorten the period of construction by comparison, which is especially true for the large and complex engineering under poor construction conditions. Summaries of virtual trial assembly are made in detail on its related engineering applications, 3D measurement techniques, algorithms of Procrustes Analysis used in China, Japan, Europe. An illustrative example for practical engineering is given in the end, which provides a reference for application and further research.
