Project Overview

This project is located at Shiji Urban Square, Guangzhou, China. Completed in 2018, it is a commercial tensile membrane canopy covering pedestrian walkways and retail areas. The total construction area is approximately 2,600 ㎡, featuring a combination of modern curved and hat-shaped tensile membrane roofs supported by a steel structure. The steel frame uses an epoxy zinc-rich primer with a white topcoat for corrosion protection. The roof is covered with 1,300 g/㎡ white PVDF membrane, B1 fire-rated, meeting safety standards for public and commercial spaces.

Challenge and Solution

The client requested a visually striking canopy for the commercial street, providing effective sunshade and rain protection while enhancing the overall aesthetics of the square. Our team designed a hybrid curved and hat-shaped tensile membrane structure, combining lightweight construction with modern architectural appeal.

Installation
and Support

The installation was executed by our professional team using segmented assembly and multiple cranes to ensure uniform membrane tension and precise alignment. The project was completed efficiently on schedule, meeting both functional and aesthetic requirements.

Application

This wave-form commercial tensile membrane structure is ideal for shopping streets, urban squares, parks, and other public spaces, offering lightweight, durable, and visually appealing coverage solutions.
