Space Frame



What is Space Frame?

Space frames are three dimensional, lightweight, rigid steel structures. It is constructed from interlocking struts in a geometric pattern.  

We use hollow steel tubes to undertake tension and compression which we connect using our own system nodes. Space frames can be used efficiently to cover huge areas with minimum interior supports.

 






        Space Frame Components

Nodes: In a space frame, nodes are forging steel balls drilled any number of holes according to the project needs to connect pipe members with bolts.

Pipes: Pipes are circular hollow section with cone-shaped steel forgings welded at the ends.

Bolts: Bolts can turn inside the conic elements to connect pipe member to the node and resist against the pulling forces occurring in the system.

Sleeves: The sleeves are special nuts without thread, a long hole on the lateral side to connect the bolts to the nodes.

Pins: The pins are the materials fixing the bolts to the sleeves, so when sleeves turn, the bolts also turn. There is no any carrying function of the pins.
