In which industries are steel space frames widely used?
Xuzhou SAFS Steel Structure Engineering Co., Ltd.
Steel space frames are widely used in many of the following industries:
Gymnasium: It is used to hold various sports events, such as basketball, volleyball, badminton matches, etc.
Steel space frame can provide a large area of space without columns to ensure that spectators have a good view and are not obstructed by columns. For example, the main stadium ‘Bird's Nest’ of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, the main structure of which is a steel space frame, has a large span to accommodate a large number of spectators and a unique shape, making it a landmark building of the city.
Swimming Pool: The steel space frame can adapt to the large span requirement of the swimming pool, and at the same time, it can resist the corrosion of the structure by the high humidity environment in the pool. Its space can meet the needs of setting up standard swimming pool, diving pool and spectator stands and other facilities.
Exhibition construction industry
Exhibition halls: Large exhibition halls need spacious internal space to display various large exhibits, such as automobiles, mechanical equipment, artworks and so on.
Steel space frame can easily achieve a large span space of tens of metres or even hundreds of metres, which is convenient for the layout design of the exhibition and can flexibly divide the exhibition area.
Transport and construction industry
Transport and construction industry
Airport Terminal: Huge space is needed to accommodate functional areas such as check-in counters, waiting halls, baggage claim, etc. The steel space frame can achieve large-span roof coverage and provide travellers with an open and bright spatial environment. At the same time, its structural stability can also meet the requirements of airport buildings in terms of wind and earthquake resistance.
Waiting hall of railway station: it can provide spacious waiting space for travellers to wait and pass through. The steel space frame can be designed according to the building scale and functional requirements of the railway station, adapting to different platform layouts and passenger flow.
Industrial construction industry
Transport and construction industry
Industrial plant: For some industrial production that requires large production equipment and high space, such as the plant of aircraft manufacturing, shipbuilding, automobile manufacturing and other industries, steel structure space frame can meet the requirements of large span and large space, which is convenient for the installation of equipments and the lifting of materials. Moreover, steel structure net frame can be flexibly designed according to the production process, such as setting up crane beams of different heights.
Warehousing and logistics centre: steel space frame can build a large area of warehouse space, which is convenient for storage and handling of goods. According to the type of stored goods and the requirements of the racking system, the height and carrying capacity of the racking can be reasonably designed to improve the utilisation rate of the storage space.
Industrial construction industry
Culture and construction industry
Opera House, Theatre: The steel space frame can provide suitable space for the audience hall, stage, etc. and ensure good acoustic effect and sightline conditions. The space frame structure above the stage can also facilitate the installation of various stage equipments, such as the hanging system of lighting, sound, curtain and other equipments.
Museum: It can meet the space requirements of different types of exhibition halls, and can flexibly design the indoor lighting and temperature and humidity control system according to the display mode and protection requirements of the exhibits. At the same time, the stability of the steel space frame helps to protect the precious cultural relics from structural deformation and other factors.
