Knowledge about bolt ball space frame

The bolt ball space frame is a common steel structure space frame, which consists of many ball nodes and rods connected by bolts. This space frame has the characteristics of stable structure, easy production and installation, and convenient maintenance, and is widely used in various industrial and civil buildings. This article will introduce the relevant knowledge of this space frame in detail from the aspects of the composition, advantages, production and installation, and maintenance of the bolt ball space frame.

1.The composition of the bolt ball space frame

The bolt ball space frame is mainly composed of two parts: bolt ball node and rod. Among them, the bolt ball node is a connection node, which consists of a steel sphere and several bolts. These bolts pass through the holes of the sphere to connect two or more rods together. The rods are usually made of seamless steel pipes or welded steel pipes, which are connected together through bolt ball nodes to form a stable space frame structure.

2.Advantages of bolt ball space frame

(1)Stable structure

The bolt ball space frame is composed of ball nodes and rods connected by multiple bolts. This structure has extremely high stability and bearing capacity. Whether it is subjected to external forces such as gravity, wind load or earthquake, the bolt ball space frame can remain stable and ensure the safety of the structure.

(2)Easy to make and install

The components of the bolt ball space frame are relatively simple and are generally prefabricated in the factory. This makes the production efficiency high and the time cycle short. The component specifications are relatively uniform, which can greatly reduce the difficulty and time of on-site installation and reduce labor costs.

3.Easy maintenance

The bolt ball space frame is made of steel materials with strong corrosion resistance. Even if it is damaged, only partial replacement or repair is required, and the maintenance cost is low.
