The space frame roof structure is a trend now, and more builders choose this structure as the roof. Compared with the space frame and the steel roof truss, which one is more economical? Let me briefly cite a few points for your reference:
- The space frame is light in weight and has good economic indicators. Compared with the flat steel roof truss of the same span, when the span is less than 30m, it can save 5~10% of steel consumption; when the span is more than 30m, it can save 10~20%;
- The space frame has a large space rigidity, a small structural weight, and good seismic performance;
- The space frame is easy to construct and install, with few types of rods and nodes, and small size. Transportation, storage, loading and unloading, assembling are more convenient;
- The plane layout of the space frame is flexible, and the roof system is flat, which is conducive to the installation of suspended ceilings, pipelines and equipment;
If you really understand the above points, I think you will make the right choice.For builders, safety and cost are the first priority of a project, and both must be possessed. Then choose the space frame structure, which allows you to achieve the greatest value at the lowest cost.
