The Oriental Pearl TV Tower is a multi-tube structure, with wind force as the main factor controlling the main structure. The main trunk is composed of three hollow pillars with a diameter of 9 meters and a height of 287 meters, and there are 6-meter-high beams connecting the pillars; at an elevation of 93 meters, it is supported by three inclined pillars with a diameter of 7 meters, which are at an angle of 60 degrees to the ground. The building has 425 foundation piles 12 meters into the ground, and three steel structure balls weighing thousands of tons are suspended at 112 meters, 295 meters and 350 meters above the tower. The reinforced concrete building has three diagonal braces nearly 100 meters high.
The tower has strong stability, and its earthquake resistance standard is designed to be "unmovable at level 7, uncracked at level 8, and uncollapsed at level 9". In addition, the building also has good wind resistance.
