Analysis of Common Steel Structures in Industrial Buildings: The Outstanding Advantages of Space Frame Structures

图片
In the construction of modern industrial buildings , steel structures have become the preferred choice for an increasing number of enterprises due to their unique advantages. Not only can they meet the demands for large spans and expansive spaces, but they also excel in construction efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability. Selecting the appropriate steel structure configuration is crucial to ensuring the functionality, safety, and economic viability of the building. 1. Portal Frame Structure Characteristics: A frame structure comprising solid or lattice steel columns and beams connected rigidly. Features a straightforward design with clear load transfer pathways. Advantages: Simple structure: Relatively straightforward to design and construct, facilitating standardisation. Rapid construction: Components are highly prefabricated in factories, enabling swift on-site assembly. Cost-effectiveness: Relatively low construction costs for medium-to-small span industrial buildings (t...

Structural Characteristics of Steel Tube Joist

图片
  As a structural engineer, I would look at the following aspects of analysing a steel tube joist : I. Structural characteristics: 1. Simple structure: Pipe truss structure is connected by several sets of pipe rods and nodes, which does not need a large number of parts, so the structure is very simple. This design not only makes installation and dismantling faster and more convenient, but also reduces the manufacturing cost. 2. Light weight: Pipe trusses are made of lightweight materials and the overall weight is light. This helps to reduce the load of the building itself and improve the load-bearing capacity of the building. 3. High Strength: The tube truss structure is made of high strength materials such as steel pipe, so the whole structure has high load bearing capacity and wind resistance. It can withstand larger loads and external impacts to ensure the stability and safety of the building. 4. Good anti-seismic performance: Due to the stability and flexibility of tube truss ...

Application of space frames to hangars

图片
To date, space frame structures have been widely used in China, with application scenarios including but not limited to: industrial plants, coal storage structures, hangars, airport terminals, high speed rail stations and large stadiums. 💚💚💚 Hangars require a large span and space sufficient for aircraft parking, but also a certain load-bearing capacity to withstand the loads brought by the equipment during aircraft maintenance. In order to increase the load-bearing capacity, the construction of hangar structures has been accompanied by improvements and innovations to the traditional two-storey space frame structure. For example, the four-bay hangar at Beijing Capital Airport, built in 1996, has a three-storey space frame structure with dimensions of (153+153)m × 90 m. The hangar of China Southern Airlines at Beijing Daxing International Airport, built in 2019, has a W-shaped truss + space frame structure system with a span of 222 m at the opening side of the gate. hangar
