Advantages and features of tube trusses

In most cases, the pipe truss is subject to axial pressure or tension, which is evenly dispersed in the cross-section, so it is easy for the material to play a role. Therefore, this feature is the basis for the materials used in the pipe truss structure, and the structure's self-weight is also very small. It can be made into various shapes of trusses, arches, frames and towers. Nowadays, pipe truss structures are made of a wide range of materials and are widely used.

Additionally, most tube trusses are connected by welding between nodes. Before welding, we must cut according to the weld shape of each component. However, since the rods in the tube truss structure intersect with each other, the cross-sectional shape of the rod ends is relatively complex, so mechanical cutting and manual cutting are used for processing.

The advantage of a tube truss is that it can withstand tension and compression and can be used to its full potential, thus saving material and reducing the weight of the structure. The tube truss structure is based on the grid structure. Compared with the grid structure, it has more advantages and practicability, and the amount of structural steel is also very economical.
The advantage of the grid is that it has space-bearing capacity, is very light in weight, and has very good impact resistance. The disadvantage is that production and installation are more complex.
The tube truss structure mainly bears axial tension or pressure and is widely used in industrial plants, automobile and other industrial equipment platform production lines, logistics and warehousing, public building gymnasiums, business clubs, high-speed railways, subway platforms, high-rise business buildings and other buildings.
Compared with the grid structure, the tube truss structure saves grid balls and longitudinal rod points, which can meet the requirements of the architectural form. In particular, the arched and arc-shaped structures have more advantages than the grid structure and save the amount of material. The steel tube truss structure was developed based on the grid structure, so it is more practical and economical in terms of steel consumption compared with the grid structure.
Compared with more traditional sections (H-shaped steel and I-shaped steel), the cross-section material and bending capacity of the tube truss compression structure are stronger, and the structure is simple. The most important thing is that the appearance of the tube truss structure is very beautiful and has a certain decorative effect. The integrity of the pipe truss is very good, the appearance is beautiful, and the production, installation and hoisting are relatively easy. The steel pipe roof truss made of cold-formed thin-walled steel has a light structure, good rigidity, saves steel, and can give full play to the advantages of material strength. The structure has a series of features such as beautiful appearance, convenient production and installation, and good economic benefits.
