Membrane Structure: Innovation and Application in Modern Architecture
Membrane structure is a new type of building form, which is widely used in modern architecture with its unique design and function.

Features of Membrane Structure
Large Span: with light self-weight and good seismic performance, membrane structure can be used without internal support, which overcomes the difficulties encountered in realizing the traditional structure on large-span (unsupported) buildings, and creates a huge unobstructed visual space, effectively increasing the area of space use.
Artistic: Membrane structure breaks through the traditional type of building structure, based on stylistics and color science, it can be combined with natural conditions, give full play to the imagination of architects, and build curves and various shapes that are difficult to realize in traditional buildings according to creativity, and it is rich in color and contemporary.

Economy: Membrane material has certain light transmittance, which can reduce the lighting intensity and time during the daytime and save energy; at night, the colorful light transmittance can form a splendid landscape. Moreover, the membrane structure can be disassembled and easily relocated, especially in the construction of short-term application of large-span buildings, it is more economical.
Safety: Membrane material is flame retardant and high temperature resistant, which can well meet the fire prevention requirements; membrane structure is flexible structure, which can withstand great displacement and is not easy to collapse as a whole; membrane structure is light in weight and has better anti-seismic performance.

Self-cleaning: Membrane building adopts membrane material with protective coating, which is not sticky, and the dust falling onto the surface of the membrane material can rely on the natural flushing of rainwater to achieve a good self-cleaning effect, and at the same time ensure the service life of the building.
Short construction period: the cutting of membrane, steel cable and steel structure are completed in the factory, reducing the site construction time, can be carried out at the same time with the lower part of the reinforced concrete structure or components, avoiding the construction of cross, in the construction site is only a steel cable, steel structure and the membrane connection and installation of positioning and tensioning process, so the site construction and installation, fast and quick, compared with the traditional construction works, the construction period is shorter.
