Other Series:Such as hexagon pyramid space grids,cobweb space frame,folded space grids,composite space grids,cable-stayed space grids(Fig.5)etc.

Specifications of Main Parts for Space FRAME

Supporting Type of Space Frame

Periphery-supporting Space Frame(Fig.6)This supporting type is widely used as it transmits force directly and gets evenly.

Point-Supporting Space Frame(Fig.7)The space frame can be put on 4 or more-point support with upper chord or column cap supporting's(Fig.8).

Combined Periphery and point Supporting Space FrameThis kind of support is specially suited to the large area industry workshop and other architecture.

Three-side-supporting One-side-opening(Fig.9)or Two-side Supporting Two-sideOpening(Fig.10)Space FrameIn this case,the un supporting side(free sides)should specially be treated,such as increasing layer of space frame near the free sides,adding joints or increasing the height of space frame.

Structures of supporting joints and suspending joints

Main Installation Method of Space Frame

Full Scaffold Aerial Bulking method(Fig.12)This installation method is applied to the bolted-ball joint space Frame,and in places where there is no enough hoisting capacity and the full scaffold can be set up.

Aerial Sliding method(Fig.13)This assembling method is applied to the places where is a hoisting area and hoisting area and hoisting equipment.

Integral Hoisting Method(Fig.14)This assembling method is applied to the places where is a hoisting area and hoisting equipment.

Working Platform Sliding Method(Fig.15)This installation method is applied to the large pillar supporting space frame with fine stiffness.Technical Requirements Plane dimension and structure type of space frameMesh size and height of space frameSupporting condition and beam width or column widthload of upper and lower chordsRoof covering material,gutter arrangement,drain direction and slopOther special requirementsFor the Design of Space Frame
