2025-05-26Space frame structure shows significant superiority in the application of large-span space due to its unique design and construction advantages. The following are some of the main advantages of space frame structure in the application of large-span space:
1.Integrity and stability
The rods of the space frame structure interact with each other to form a super-static structure, which makes the structure very stable with good integrality and high spatial stiffness. This structural stability allows it to perform well when subjected to external loads such as wind pressure and snow loads. This is particularly important in applications like steel structure stadiums where structural reliability is paramount.
2.Material utilization and deadweight optimization
The space frame structure relies on the axial force of the bars to transmit the load, and the material strength is fully utilized, which saves steel and reduces the deadweight. Compared with reinforced concrete structure under the same conditions, the space frame structure can reduce self-weight by 70-80%, and compared with ordinary steel structure, steel can be saved by 20-50%.
3.Excellent seismic performance
Due to the light self-weight of the space frame structure, the seismic force generated during an earthquake is relatively small, while the steel has good extensibility and can absorb a large amount of seismic energy, so it has excellent seismic performance.
4.Structural height optimization
The height-to-span ratio of space frame structure is small, which can effectively utilize the space. The height-to-span ratio of common steel structure is 1/8-1/10, while the height-to-span ratio of space frame structure is only 1/14-1/20, which can reduce the height of the building.
5.Fast construction speed
The size and shape of the components of the space frame structure are the same in a large number, so it can be produced in batches in the factory with good quality and high efficiency, and at the same time, it does not compete with the civil construction for the site, so the workload on the site is small and the construction period is shortened. This makes the system ideal for efficient installation of space frame roof details in complex projects.
6.Beautiful and generous modeling
space frame structure is lightweight, can cover various shapes of plane, and can be designed into a variety of body shape, beautiful and generous modeling. It’s widely used in landmark buildings such as the glass dome structure of modern churches and airports, enhancing both function and design.
7.Strong adaptability
space frame structure can be adapted to the requirements of various constructions, including different supporting conditions and building plane shapes, and can meet the requirements of public buildings and industrial plants.
8.Simple and reliable node connection
The nodes and their components have been gradually stereotyped, factory and commercialized, which simplifies the production and installation of node connection and ensures the stress performance of the nodes.
9.High degree of mechanization in processing and production
The rods and nodes of the space frame structure are relatively single and stereotyped, so they can be produced in batches in the factory and mechanized, which ensures the processing quality and shortens the production time.
10.Adapt to the requirements of the industrialization of construction commercialization
China has prepared a wider range of application of welded hollow ball nodes and bolted ball nodes space frame structure of the stereotypes of the design, and professional factory production, according to the needs of direct purchase.
These advantages make the space frame structure in the application of large-span space not only improves the safety and economy of the building, but also increases the aesthetics and practicality of the building. With the progress of construction technology and the application of new materials, the design and application of space frame structure will be more extensive and in-depth.
