What are the advantages of air-supported membrane structures

1. High Energy Efficiency
Air-supported membrane structures utilize high-strength, lightweight membrane materials with superior thermal insulation properties, consuming only 1/10 to 1/4 of the energy required by traditional buildings, achieving over 80% energy savings. Their airtight design minimizes energy waste and reduces operational costs.

2. Rapid Construction & Flexible Deployment
Prefabricated components enable quick on-site assembly, with 10-day installation cycles for small/medium structures and 2 months (including civil engineering work) for large-scale projects. Modular designs support reuse and relocation, meeting temporary or seasonal needs.

3. Large Span & Column-Free Space
The air-pressure-supported structure eliminates internal columns, enabling column-free spans exceeding 100 meters (up to 180 meters), ideal for stadiums, warehouses, and other open-space applications.

4. Safety & Earthquake Resistance
The ultra-light membrane material (<3 kg/m&sup2;) minimizes seismic inertia forces. A diagonal steel cable stabilization system resists Category 12 typhoons and snow loads exceeding 50 kg/m&sup2;. In earthquakes, the structure gradually deflates (falling to 2 meters height over ~30 minutes), providing ample evacuation time.

5. Eco-Friendliness
Recyclable materials and zero construction waste align with green building principles. Fully sealed designs block noise and dust, suitable for urban projects with strict environmental requirements.

6. Smart Management
An intelligent monitoring system regulates internal pressure, temperature, and humidity in real time. Dual backup air supply systems and emergency power ensure stability during extreme weather.

7. Cost-Effectiveness
Construction costs remain low regardless of span. For stadiums, costs are 1/3 to 1/5 of conventional buildings.

8. Aesthetic Versatility
Sleek, modern designs enhance urban landscapes. Flexible spatial partitioning supports diverse functional needs.

9. High Light Transmission & Comfort
PVDF coatings or PVF films provide 25% natural light transmittance while ensuring fire resistance and weatherproofing. Controllable indoor pressure, temperature, humidity, and airflow optimize comfort.

10. Broad Applications
Widely used in sports (climate-controlled stadiums), logistics (rapidly deployable warehouses), environmental protection (landfill covers, wastewater treatment), agriculture, and exhibitions.
