Advantages and disadvantages of swing arm awnings

As one of the most modern architectural forms in the 21st century, the swing arm awning breaks the multi linear architectural style of other traditional architectural forms, with a unique and beautiful curved shape. Simplicity, lightness, and softness are the perfect combination of architecture and art, giving people a strong visual impact. Moreover, its flexible structure provides architects with greater imagination and creative space. Membrane materials are included in relevant national documents as flame-retardant and flame-retardant materials, which will not cause direct harm to humans in a fire. Even in the event of a fire, due to the inherent characteristics of the tensioned membrane structure, the pre tension in the entire structure will slowly decrease until it loses tension, but there is no risk of collapse. Due to the light weight of the membrane material and the large deformation capacity of the flexible structural system, its seismic performance is very good.

Due to the limitations of the inherent characteristics of the material, such as the small thermal conductivity of the membrane fabric, and the fact that the Teng structure building is mainly composed of the belly fabric, its actual heat transfer area will become large. The combination of the two aspects shows that membrane structure buildings often result in greater heat dissipation and more unfavorable internal surface temperature during artificial air conditioning, resulting in a certain amount of energy waste. Therefore, when facing buildings that require artificial air conditioning for coverage using tensioned membrane structure roofs, it is necessary to consider the issue of poor insulation performance.

One important function of membrane roofing is to resist the impact of various weather changes (such as sunlight, rain, wind and snow) on its internal space and maintain the comfort of the building interior. Deployable structures can be seen as an artificial adaptive system that, like many natural organisms, can change its form as needed. Buildings with specific functions can be expressed through design, and the unique appearance of the tensioned membrane structure reflects the natural beauty of the building itself. The lightweight tension membrane structure designed according to existing national standards and guidelines has sufficient safety.
