How does LF make buildings more flexible and economical?

In the current construction industry landscape, creating more flexible and economical buildings has become a core issue for LF. Bolted ball space frames, as a novel building solution, are gradually becoming a favorite in the construction field due to their lightweight and high efficiency.

LF believes that the most prominent feature of bolted ball space frames is their lightweight nature. Compared to traditional concrete structures, bolted ball space frames use steel with lower density but higher strength, significantly reducing component weight under the same load-bearing capacity, thus reducing the overall weight of the building. LF’s testing and analysis have also shown that they are more convenient in transportation and installation.

The flexibility of bolted ball space frames is another highlight. Because the components are prefabricated in the factory, they can be customized to meet different design requirements. Whether it’s complex shapes or later adjustments to spatial functions, they can be easily achieved. Furthermore, the installation process of bolted ball space frames is simple and easy to operate. Construction workers can quickly complete the assembly using bolt connections, greatly improving construction efficiency.

Bolted ball space frames also have advantages in reducing material costs. Steel, as an industrially produced product, boasts high production efficiency and relatively stable prices. Furthermore, the rational structural design of bolted ball space frames minimizes material waste. In terms of construction time, prefabrication and convenient installation significantly shorten the construction period for bolted ball space frame buildings. Compared to traditional construction, its construction period can be reduced by 30%-50%, lowering labor costs and allowing for faster commissioning and economic benefits. Moreover, the simple structural form of bolted ball space frames reduces the space occupied by internal structural components, resulting in a more regular and open interior space, significantly improving space utilization and meeting diverse usage needs.

Bolted ball space frames have wide applicability. LF also frequently uses bolted ball space frames in warehousing facilities, allowing for flexible space allocation based on cargo storage characteristics, improving warehousing efficiency. In temporary construction, such as disaster relief housing and temporary exhibition venues, the rapid assembly and reusability of bolted ball space frames are fully utilized, meeting emergency needs quickly and allowing for disassembly and relocation after use, achieving efficient resource utilization.
