Space Frame Installation Price, Space Frame Manufacturers, Space Frame Fabrication and Installation
The installation of space frames refers to the process of placing pre-assembled space frames into their designed positions using various construction methods.
Before installing the space frame, the following should be ensured:
(1) Inspect the quality assurance certificates and test reports of raw materials for nodes, members, connectors, and welding materials, and recheck the quality certificates of small assembly units;
(2) Verify and inspect the position and elevation of embedded parts and bolts, as well as the positioning axes and elevation of the space frame by the construction unit;
(3) Conduct a review of the space frame construction drawings against the actual space frame in the working drawings to check for any discrepancies.
Depending on the assembly method and the installation equipment used, the installation methods for space frames mainly include the following:
1. High-altitude bulk assembly method—Suitable for various types of space frames with bolted connections.
2. Strip or block installation method—Suitable for space frames where stiffness and stress changes are minimal after segmentation, such as two-way orthogonal, square pyramid, and square pyramid with omitted members space frames, etc.
3. High-altitude sliding method—Suitable for square pyramid, square pyramid with omitted members, two-way orthogonal space frames, etc.
4. Integral hoisting method—Applicable to various types of space frames.
5. Integral lifting method—Suitable for peripherally supported and multi-point supported space frames.
6. Integral jacking method—Suitable for multi-point supported space frames with fewer support points.
The installation method for space frames should be comprehensively determined based on the structural and stress characteristics of the space frame, construction technical conditions, and ensuring quality requirements.
