Glass Fiber and Tensile Membrane- Water Cube (World's Largest Membrane Structure )

In the 1970s, the US Pavilion and the Fuji Pavilion at the Osaka World Expo in Japan used tensile and structural materials. In the following decades, the architectural membrane structure has developed rapidly. Most of the membrane structure is composed of steel and cable membrane structure, and the membrane combined with the structure is gradually becoming functional and intelligent. The membrane structural material has the advantages of light and free shape, beautiful appearance, light transmission, energy saving, environmental protection, excellent flame retardant performance, anti-fouling self-cleaning performance, safety and long service life. Based on these advantages, architectural membranes stand out, and the membrane structure is called “21st Century Architecture” and is used in large stadiums, entrance corridors, shopping malls, casinos, parking lots, exhibition venues, plant sightseeing parks and other buildings.
The "Bird's Nest" and "Water Cube" membrane steel truss structures of the Beijing Olympic Games venues use ETFE membranes, which is currently the largest ETFE membrane steel truss structure in China, and the membranes are imported. The "Bird's Nest" adopts a double-layer membrane steel truss structure, the outer layer is protected by ETFE rain and snow, and the inner layer is made of PTFE for heat preservation, anti-condensation, sound insulation and light effect. "Water Cube" adopts double-layer ETFE inflatable membrane structure, a total of 1437 air cushions, each of which looks like a "water bubble". The air pillow can adjust the opacity and light transmission by controlling the amount of inflation. The use of natural light, energy saving, and good thermal insulation, eliminate echo, provide a warm and comfortable environment for athletes and spectators.
As a membrane steel  truss structure with great influence in the world, the Water Cube can be said to have added a lot of color in the history of China's membrane structure industry, setting a curtain for the rapid development of the domestic membrane steel truss structure industry.

Shape of steel space frame structure

图片
  The steel space frame  structure can realize various spatial regular shapes such as arches, circles, spherical shells, and saddle shapes, as well as various irregular shapes. Moreover, if the same shape and different structures are compared, the cost of the steel space frame  structure is relatively low. The shape of the steel space frame  structure refers to the regular or irregular changes in the three-dimensional shape of the grid. Due to the special structure of the space frame structure and the high-precision factory manufacturing requirements, the more precise components required for the complex space frame  shape can be processed in the factory. Through the subtle changes in the angle of the screw holes of the bolt ball joints and the changes in the length of the rods, the space frame  structure can be fitted to the complex shape requirements of the architectural modeling.  At present, the space frame structure has almost become "all-match", and all kinds of spatial

  Steel space frame  structure is widely used in various buildings, such as   stadiums, exhibition halls, high-speed railway station buildings, terminal buildings, large factories, etc.; steel space frame  structure is a large-span steel structure as the main structure; it has poles The parts have the advantages of reasonable force, light weight, good integrity and stability, large space rigidity, good seismic performance, beautiful appearance, and low cost. What are the main types of steel space frame  structures? The first type is composed of triangular pyramid units, and has three forms: triangular pyramid space frame , evacuated triangular pyramid space frame  and honeycomb triangular pyramid space frame . The second type is composed of a plane truss system, which has four forms: two-way orthogonal diagonally placed space frame , two-way orthogonally placed space frame , two-way diagonally diagonally placed space frame  and three-way space frame . The third type is composed of qua

Space frame dome structure

图片
The space frame  dome uses a spherica l dome  as the main structural system, and the outside of the space frame is covered with plates or glass according to different needs. The glass dome can meet the lighting needs of the building. Natural light is filtered into the environment through the glass interface, making the building visually light and transparent. The space frame  dome uses a bolted ball space structure  as the main structure, and the covering material can be divided into blocks according to the size of the modular. Compared with the hyperboloid molding material, the cost is lower.
