Main Types of Space Frame Structures:
Classification Criteria:
By structural layers: Double-layer space frames, single-layer space frames, and triple-layer space frames. By geometric form: Planar space frames and curved space frames.
By constituent units: Intersecting truss systems, square pyramid systems, and triangular pyramid systems.
By construction materials: Steel space frames, composite space frames, and aluminum alloy space frames.
What are the primary application fields for space frames?
1. The vast majority of public and industrial buildings, such as gymnasiums, exhibition centers, airport terminals, and large-scale industrial plants.
2. Specialized engineering projects involving ultra-long spans or exceptionally heavy loads, such as large aircraft hangars and massive dry coal storage sheds.
3. Public buildings where architectural aesthetics are a priority, such as the domes of large sports stadiums, opera houses, and exhibition centers.
