ETFE Membrane Structure For China Xi An I Tower

The I Tower is located in the Silk Road World of Fun in Xi'an Province, China, with a total height of 139.21 meters, which means "love you for a lifetime", when the 139.21 meters high "I Tower" lights up, it adds a sense of romantic atmosphere to the park. The Tower , in the name of love, lights up the Silk Road World of Joy, and thus becomes the newest "Mecca for couples to confess" in Xi'an, with many people confessing their love to their lover ones under the Tower of dreamy light . This is not only the landmark of Silk Road World of Fun, but also a must-see attraction when traveling in Xi'an!

Wanhao is mainly constructed the all-steel membrane structure of the I Tower project, use consists of inner tube steel frame, outer tube mesh shell, large overhanging spoke skirt truss, top Möbius ring and outer tube modeling ribbons, and the surface is covered with transparent ETFE (soft glass) cushion membrane structure, the ETFE fiol area is15,100 m; usage of steel structure is 4,250 tons, and the project's total height reaches 139.21 meters.

The ETFE membrane is characterized by its resistance to weathering and heat: the ETFE membrane material is virtually non-reactive to a wide range of chemicals and does not deteriorate or deform even in sunlight, rain or exhaust fumes, and its properties remain unchanged for long-term outdoor use. Use ETFE membrane ensures that the Tower is not afraid of the sun and rain, preventing tower deterioration,prolonging its service life.

ETFE film is not only leading other building materials with weather resistance, its dust resistance also makes the surface of the building to prevent dust and dirt adhesion, greatly reducing the cost of cleaning and maintenance, especially many peripheral buildings with manpower is difficult to clean the place, but the ETFE membrane only need to rain can make the surface of the building to keep clean and tidy.In the future, ETFE membrane structures will be used in a wide range of applications, including construction, stadiums, aerospace and environmental protection.
