Simply put, steel (mostly steel pipes) is used to form two flat space frames, such as a flat space frame composed of many small squares. Then the two plane space frames are made into a three-dimensional structure space frame with vertical steel pipes. If the two small square space frames are aligned up and down, they can form a cube, but the force is not good. Usually the two space frames are stacked up and down, and the nodes of one small space frame are centered in the middle of the other small space frame to form a four-sided pyramid structure. Without pictures, it is difficult to explain.
The space frame is used in large-span spaces. Many gas station sheds are space frame-structured, as are some high-speed toll stations.
bolted-ball space frame
Steel structure space frame: a spatial structure formed by connecting multiple rods through nodes in a certain space frame form. It has the advantages of space stress, light weight, high rigidity, and good seismic performance; steel structure space frame is widely used as the roof structure of stadiums, exhibition halls, clubs, theaters, canteens, conference rooms, waiting rooms, hangars, workshops, etc. It has the characteristics of high degree of industrialization, light weight, good stability and beautiful appearance.
Space frame: a spatial structure system composed of rods, nodes and supports. It belongs to a special case of trusses in steel structures. There are generally square pyramids, triangular pyramids and other structural forms.
