The project is located in G-Park commercial street, Daxing Economic Development Zone, Xi 'an City, China. The project adopts an open ETFE day lighting roof, which makes the whole commercial street more transparent and open. At the same time, it can withstand the impact of bad weather, providing a good shelter for leisure and bringing people closer to nature.
The ETFE roofing consists of 340 pieces of different shapes of ETFE air pillow. The total area of the ETFE air pillow roof is 15000 square meters, of which the largest air pillow is about 110 square meters. The whole canopy is not only capable of UV ray resistance, but also allows visitors to enjoy the floating clouds in the sky thanks to its transparent merits, which is the the goal of our clientele and our designers finally achieve the combination of practicality and beauty.
G-park Business Center exemplifies how to combine the functions of dwelling and business. A transparent ETFE membrane structure like a silver belt in the small two-story low building does not affect the original lighting and greening function at all, providing more convenience and comfort for people’s commuting.
Specifications
-
√. Large Span: Tensile Structures can create an expansive covered area, exceed to 200m.
√. Various Shape: Changeful supporting structure can make lots of different shapes of tensioned structure with flexible membrane.
√. Cost-effective: About 1/3 to 1/2 lower than conventional structures on costs.
√. Easy to Install: Faster and more cost-effective in comparison to traditional construction projects.
√. Weatherproof: Durable and designed to withstand even the most severe weather conditions. Provide protection from both the rain and sun.
√. Excellent Durability: Fabric tensile Structure is characterized by durability and longevity, can be built in different areas around the world, from the frigid arctic pole to the scorching desert heat.
√. ECO Friendly: Have high sun reflectivity and low solar absorption. As a result, less energy is used in the building, ultimately reducing the cost of electricity.
√. Low maintenance Needs: Tensile membrane Structures require minimal maintenance for clients, whether use of PVC, PVDF, PTFE or ETFE.
√. Outstanding Natural Daylighting: Membrane is translucent, In daylight, tension structures could offer rich soft diffused naturally daylight space, and at night, artificial lighting can make it bright and colorful.
Design & Model
Installation
|
Step 1: Design BDiR use the latest tensile structural design software to produce detailed tensile structural designs. Including: BIM model design (building information modeling), finding and load analysis, integrated building design, joint force analysis, membrane cutting analysis, construction process simulation, numerical wind tunnel simulation. |
Step 2: Membrane Fabrication Membrane fabrication plays an important role in the tensile structure. There are many fabrics (PVC, PVDF, PTFE, ETFE) in the market, they come from all over the world, they have different characteristics and prices, different welding or joining techniques. We will make the best choices from structural design, project location and our customer budget. |

Step 3. Steel Fabrication Tensile structure are made of steel structural members that are welded and painted in our factory. We will conduct the following procedures with high standards: Paint thickness detection, ultrasonic testing, magnetic particle testing, high-strength bolt torque testing, cable pre-tensioning, rust removal , pre-assembly inspection, painting, etc. |
Step 4: Cable Fabrication Cable and hardware fittings are procured from the most reliable and certified vendors of the industry in compliance with the international quality standards. Cable fabrication are proceed under guidance of our skilled and experienced experts. |

Step 5: Installation The installation of the tension structure is critical to the overall success of the project. We will provide on site installation service. Our project manager will work with the client to coordinate the structure installation on site. Including steel structure installation, membrane lifting and measure tension. If you prefer self-installation, we'll send you detailed instructions so it can be easily installed. |
Step 6: The Future Our service will not end at the time of delivery and installation! Because we only use the highest quality membrane materials and steel frames, cables and parts. You can rest assured that your new tensile structure is built to last. Besides, Tensile structure does not require much maintenance and we offer a up to 35 year warranty. |
