Abstract：
Because of uneven foundation settlement, a mechanical building has been severely damaged, the safety and normal use of the structure have been affected seriously. Based on field detection，the main problems of the mechanical building are summarized, and a reinforce program is proposed which combines prestressed cables and steel braces. The nonlinear finite element method is used to calculate the reinforced structure, and the results show good reinforce effect.
