The Steel Structure Speed Skating Oval, as one of the stadium buildings, features a large-span space and a stable structural framework. EIHE Steel Structure is the manufacturer and supplier of steel structure stadium projects. We have been deeply involved in such projects for over 20 years and have rich practical experience, which enables us to provide you with efficient solutions.
A Steel Structure Speed Skating Oval refers to a sports building that uses steel structures as its supporting system. This type of building has diverse functions. It can be used to host ice sports events, for athletes' daily training, or as a public sports center. We have our own steel structure factory in China, which enables the prefabrication of components.
Structural Characteristics
● Large Span: Steel structures have inherent advantages in large-span structures because steel is highly strong, and the good force distribution between components can support large-space structures without columns. The net frame, truss, and arch structure in steel structures can easily achieve stable large-span roof structures.
● Light in weight, high in strength: Compared to concrete, steel is lighter but has extremely high strength. This reduces the burden on the foundation and allows the architectural form to be more lightweight and flexible.
Why choose EIHE Steel Structure?
8,000 square meters of own factory buildings, with an annual production capacity of 100,000 tons.
● Extensive experience in large-span public building projects.
Complies with international standards, better understands the needs of international customers, and has rich export experience.
Product packaging and shipping
Packaging stage
After our components of Steel Structure Speed Skating Oval are completed, they will be uniformly stacked in the packaging frame. Once the packaging frame fixes the components, it can prevent the goods from being damaged due to shaking during the shipping process.
Shipment stage
The delivery methods for steel structure components usually include open-top containers, standard shipping containers, and bulk cargo transportation. If the length of the components exceeds 12 meters, they need to be transported by bulk cargo ships.
