There are three types of common Ferris wheel structures: rigid, flexible, and rigid-flexible hybrid structures. The original Ferris wheel was made of a rigid truss, but the rigid Ferris wheel has a large weight, which limits the possibility of further expansion in size.

Flexible Ferris wheels and rigid-soft hybrid Ferris wheels are more common among large-diameter Ferris wheels. They are lighter in weight, have slender cables, and their architectural effects are more favored by architects.

The Ferris wheel structure is mainly composed of a bracket and a spoke structure. The spoke structure is placed vertically, the central axis is supported by a space support frame, and the rim (that is, the outer ring) is mechanically driven to rotate around the central axis to form a Ferris wheel.
