With practical projects, authors introduce some key techniques of a building translocation project such as shifting foundation construction, construction of the horizontal support system of a building, and construction quality control of shifting foundation and the new foundation of this building and so on.

There are two loop reinforcement trusses used as horizontal support in foundation pit.

This paper puts forward the simple design method for horizontal bracing of the boiler structural steel based on code for design of steel structre(GB50017-2003) and features of the boiler structure steel design.

Actually measured results of deformation and internalforce of horizontal bracing system of foundation pit in the process ofexcavation show that excavation sequence affects seriously the internalforce of the bracing system, in particular, the horizontal bracing systemof ring beam.

The paper presented horizontal brace parts drawing CAD system which was exploited by Harbin Boiler Company Limited.

It was required to have 2-88 HC tower cranes set up on the horizontal struts of the construction structures.
