The stable surface formed by membrane structure can accept the spatial structure with certain external loads. Its shape is light, soft, and also has the advantages of flame retardant and easy installation, so it has been widely applied all over the world.
1、Light weight of membrane structure: membrane structure is a light structure determined by the information and structure of membrane structure selection. Compared with other traditional building structures, membrane structure is very light

2、Long life span of membrane structure: membrane structure is a semi-permanent structure. Now the world's oldest membrane structure has been used for more than 30 years

3、Its steel framework only needs to be coated with anti-corrosion coating to increase its use; the membrane material for construction is a high-grade composite material with outstanding mechanical properties, high strength and aging resistance, and the life span of membrane structure construction can be as long as 50 years with reasonable structure design

4、The membrane structure has good self-cleaning property: the exterior membrane of the building has no static electricity and has no adsorption force on the dust, so it is not easy to dust. Even if it falls on a little dust, it will be easily removed by wind and rain. Therefore, membrane structure architecture always appears in our vision with a bright and clean appearance

5、The span of membrane structure is large: the membrane structure can be built into a large-span building without a central supporting column. Some large public activity sites required to be built without columns and large open spaces. The choosing of membrane structure is greatly idealization

6、The technical performance of membrane structure is good: membrane material is a kind of disordered space curved surface which is difficult to be made by rigid materials, so it is more convenient to choose membrane structure

7、The construction period of membrane structure is short: the manufacturing of framework and the processing of membrane materials are all carried out in the factory, which greatly shortens the construction period on site

What kind of membrane materials should be selected for membrane structure? It is still the first thing to know about membrane materials: PTFE membrane, ETFE film, PVDF membrane and PVC membrane.

PTFE：

1、PTFE has a maximum operating temperature of 290-320 ℃, a very low friction coefficient and excellent chemical stability

2、PTFE membrane material is coated with polytetrafluoroethylene resin on superfine glass fabric

3、This kind of membrane material has better welding function, excellent UV resistance, anti-aging function and flame retardant. In addition, its antifouling and self-cleaning properties are the best among membrane materials

ETFE：

1、The structure is light, light transmittance is good, life span is more than 20 years; high self-cleaning, fire retardant B1 grade; highly specialized processing technology and strict construction procedures

2、ETFE membrane structure is directly produced from ETFE.

3、ETFE not only has excellent impact resistance, thermal stability and chemical resistance, but also has high mechanical strength.

4、Good resistance, high tensile strength, not easy to tear, strong weathering and chemical corrosion resistance, melting temperature up to 200 C; outstanding acoustic function

5、The self-cleaning function makes the appearance difficult to stain, and the rain washes away a few dirt that is stained. The cleaning cycle is about 5 years

PVDF membrane material is coated with PVC resin on high-strength polyester fiber cloth. In order to solve the problem of self-cleaning of PVC membrane material, PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoroacetate resin) is usually coated on PVC coating

PVDF membrane material is a temporary construction membrane material. Compared with PTFE membrane material, its self-cleaning energy is poor, and it is easy to turn yellowish and its self-cleaning performance is declining. It is gradually replaced by high-end membrane materials such as PTFE。

Membrane structure is a kind of space structure in which many kinds of high-strength membrane materials and reinforcement members undergo certain pre-tension stresses in order to form a certain space shape and accept certain external loads. To enable customers to further understand the following specific overview of the five construction features of membrane structure：

I、 Shorter construction period

1、All processing and manufacturing in membrane structure engineering can be completed in the factory according to the plan and only installation to be carried out on site

2、Compared with the construction period of traditional architecture, it is almost twice as fast.

II、Cost Efficiency

1、The weight of membrane building roofs is only 1/30 of conventional steel roofs, which reduces the cost of walls and foundations.

2、The unique shape and nightscape of membrane structure have significant "architectural recognition" and commercial effect, and its price efficiency ratio is higher.

III、More comfortable architectural form depiction

1、Various supporting structures and flexible membrane materials make the building more diversified, novel and beautiful, showing the beauty of the structure, and rich in color

2、A more free form of architecture and a richer architectural structure

IV、Lower power consumption

1、Membrane material has high reflectivity and low light absorption, and low thermal conductivity, which prevents solar energy from entering indoors.

2、The translucency of membrane material ensures the proper natural diffuse light illumination into indoor.

V、Larger span of construction space

1、Because of its light weight, membrane building can avoid the need of large-span covering space of internal supporting surface, which enables people to plan and use the building space sensitively and more conceptually.

Membrane structure is widely used in residential, chemical, campus, government and other organizations.
