Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our Space Frame Structure solutions answered by our experts

Space frames can span 100-120 meters without intermediate supports. The world's largest space frames exceed 150 meters. The three-dimensional geometry provides exceptional rigidity and efficiency, making such large spans possible with relatively lightweight structures.

Conventional trusses work in 2D (single plane), while space frames work in 3D (three planes). This allows space frames to distribute loads in multiple directions, making them more efficient for covering large areas. They also offer more architectural freedom for complex geometries.

Common joint systems include: 1) Bolted ball joints (MERO system - most common, allows modular assembly), 2) Welded connections (more rigid, better for custom designs), and 3) Friction grip bolts. Joint selection depends on span, loads, and architectural requirements.

Absolutely! Space frames are ideal for integrating glazing and transparent panels. The geometric grid provides regular openings for skylights. Popular combinations include space frame structure with polycarbonate sheets, ETFE cushions, or glass panels, creating light-filled interior spaces.

Methods include: 1) Ground assembly followed by lifting with cranes (for smaller spans), 2) Scaffolding-supported assembly (common method), 3) Block assembly (assembling sections and linking them), and 4) Sequential assembly (building outward from supports). Method depends on span size and site conditions.

Maintenance is minimal: annual inspection of joints and connections, checking for corrosion (especially in coastal areas), ensuring drainage is functioning, and repainting every 10-15 years if painted finish was used. Hot-dip galvanized frames require very little maintenance and can last 50+ years.
