The difference between steel structure and space frame

 The space frame is also one of the steel structures, but there will be some differences between the two. The main difference is that the connections and the materials used. Today, I will give you a detailed introduction. What are the differences between the two?

The main obvious difference between a space frame and a steel structure is the connection method. For example, the structure of the space frame will generally choose bolt connection, and the steel structure will generally be welded. There can be a clear difference between the two. In addition, it needs to be analyzed from the materials used. In addition to the aluminum alloy space frame, there will also be a steel space frame. In fact, most of the applications are steel space frame. In addition to the common steel space frames in steel structures, there will also be steel portals and steel frames that have many different forms. So the difference can be reflected.

However, the space frame will also have many advantages. This is a shell structure with mesh space frames inside. Therefore, it will have more heavy capacity, and the internal force of the structure will have an even distribution. In most cases, the peak stress is small, so the strength of the material can be effectively exerted to a certain extent. From the appearance point of view, it has a rich shape. Both the architectural form and the architectural plan can give full play to the imaginary space. So it can coordinate with the surrounding environment.
