Why are space frame structures ideal for large-span roofing in Southeast Asia?

-

 Space frame steel structures have become the go-to solution for large-span roofs in Southeast Asia due to their structural efficiency and economic benefits.

Key Technical Advantages:

Lightweight & Strong:

Tubular steel components reduce dead load, making them ideal for warehouse roofing, stadiums, and aircraft hangars.

Modular Fabrication:

Space frames are fully prefabricated offsite and assembled quickly onsite, which is essential in regions with heavy rainfall like Indonesia or the Philippines

Flexible Design Options:

Can span 30m to over 100m without interior columns. Ideal for logistics centers, factories, and public infrastructure.

Cost Control in Volume Construction:

By using triangular or pyramidal grid systems, material consumption is minimized, and labor is reduced.

  Modern industrial facilities like aircraft hangars, energy plants, and bulk warehouses require ultra-large spans. Traditional beams are costly and heavy. The solution? Space structures. 1. Spans of 60m, 80m, 100m+ Space structures easily achieve clear spans over 100 meters—without intermediate columns. Perfect for aircraft bays, cranes, or tall storage racks. 2. High Load-Bearing Capacity Despite being lightweight, space structures are incredibly strong—capable of supporting overhead conveyors, piping systems, and rooftop solar panels. 3. Rapid Fabrication and Erection Every component is prefabricated. On-site installation is fast, safe, and less weather-dependent—crucial for tight industrial project timelines. 4. Reduced Maintenance The triangle-based design of space structures offers exceptional stiffness, minimizing deflection and structural fatigue over time. 5. Expandable for Future Growth Many industrial clients prefer scalable buildings. Space structures allow easy latera...

 Sustainability is no longer a trend—it's a global standard. Architects and developers are seeking construction methods that reduce carbon footprint and increase long-term efficiency. Enter the space structure . 1. Lightweight Means Less Material Compared to traditional concrete or truss roofs, space structures use significantly less material—cutting down on steel usage and emissions during transport. 2. Ideal for Daylighting and Natural Ventilation With open grids and long spans, space structures can easily integrate skylights, louvers, and passive ventilation systems—reducing energy loads. 3. 100% Recyclable Steel Space structures are made from structural steel, which is fully recyclable. Even after decades, the material retains value and reduces landfill waste. 4. Lower Foundation Load = Less Concrete The lighter weight of space structures reduces the need for deep foundations, which means less excavation, cement, and emissions. 5. LEED and Green Building Certification F...

  How to choose suitable grid structure coal bunker roof building materials? Choosing suitable grid structure coal bunker roof building materials requires comprehensive consideration of many factors. In terms of strength and stability, high-strength steel, such as the Q355 series, should be preferred. This type of steel has a high yield strength and can effectively withstand the huge pressure generated by the accumulation of coal in the coal bunker, ensuring that the grid structure does not deform or collapse under long-term heavy loads. Its good toughness can also adapt to possible impact loads and ensure the safety of the roof. Corrosion resistance is crucial. There are coal dust, water vapor and possible harmful gases in the coal bunker environment, and the material is easily corroded. Hot-dip galvanized steel is a good choice. The zinc layer can form a protective barrier on the surface of the steel, isolate air and moisture, and delay rust. For coal bunkers near coastal areas o...
