"Shanzhu" typhoon early warning information release, a client consulting me, suddenly you ETFE membrane structure of typhoon resistance? I think of ETFE membrane structure are of interest to people want to know the answer, so here I am to share my point of view.

People are keen to love beautiful things, habitually think beautiful things will be delicate, just like ETFE membrane structure architecture gives person's feeling. There is no doubt that, as the representative of the membrane structure architecture ETFE membrane structure architecture is luxuriant and beautiful, but ETFE membrane structure is not delicate.

Commonly used in construction of ETFE is only about 200 microns, but this is a thin layer of transparent membrane material, its compressive strength is over 40 mpa, have extremely strong tear resistance, in the case of no sharp objects poke, its physical performance comparable to the thickness of the same specifications of the steel. We have done experiments, the inflated ETFE air pillow membrane can be easily to lift the car and membrane material completely from being damaged. In actual case of the monolayer film, the absence of blank holder standing people also works at the membrane surface (65 kg), and membrane materials can fully recover after the people left.

Commonly used in construction of ETFE is only about 200 microns, but this is a thin layer of transparent membrane material, its compressive strength is over 40 mpa, have extremely strong tear resistance, in the case of no sharp objects poke, its physical performance comparable to the thickness of the same specifications of the steel. We have done experiments, after filling in the currently popular design, with lightsome ETEF and heavy steel structure collocation is used, this architecture can produce a very wonderful effect. Coastal monsoon region, especially in the design of the buildings are to consider wind, so we see ETFE membrane structure architecture, the general frame of steel structure are doing very bulky solid. Can't tear ETFE materials in the typhoon wind, strong enough to support structure that the typhoon will not be able to direct damage to the building.

From the above two points, ETFE membrane structure is a strong typhoon resistance. Wind is, of course, exquisite technique, brute-force certainly not. Such as air pillow ETEF membrane structure, when strong winds early warning, need timely and properly tip air pillow inner pressure; When applied to the design of membrane structure, considering the modelling of fluid force, which the wind is the modelling of larger lift must choose carefully.
