Efficient Application of Spatial Structures in Airports and Transportation Hubs
As gateways to cities, airports and transportation hubs must simultaneously meet diverse demands for ultra-large span spaces, complex curved surface designs, and intelligent operational management. With their green, low-carbon, and modular technical characteristics, space frame structures have emerged as the ideal solution for such transportation facilities, demonstrating irreplaceable advantages in enhancing functionality and intelligence. 1. Functional Requirements and Technical Adaptation Modern airport and transportation hub designs confront three core challenges: (1) Creating column-free spaces spanning hundreds of meters to accommodate tens of thousands of passengers during peak hours; (2) Integrating complex electromechanical systems like baggage sorting and rail transit installations; (3) Ensuring long-term durability and operational safety. Space structures effortlessly span over 150 meters while weighing only one-third of concrete structures, significantly reducing found...
