S960QH and S960QLH Hollow Structural Sections (HSS) are widely used in a variety of applications in station and infrastructure construction due to their high strength and versatility. Here are some specific applications:
Metro and train stations
Structural Frame: Used as the primary structural frame to support large spans and heavy loads, especially in elevated or underground stations.
Columns and Beams: Ideal for vertical columns and horizontal beams, providing stability and allowing for open space in station designs.
Transportation Hub
Intermodal Facilities: Applied to transportation hubs that integrate different modes of transportation (trains, buses, ferries) to ensure structural integrity and efficient load distribution.
Canopies and Roofs: Canopies suitable for use over decks and waiting areas provide protection from the elements while maintaining aesthetics.
Bridges and Walkways
Pedestrian Bridges: Used to construct pedestrian bridges that connect different parts of a transportation system, allowing for longer spans and reduced material weight.
Access: Used to create access to platforms and other facilities to ensure safety and durability.
Commercial and retail space within stations
Retail Area: Designed for the construction of retail space within the station, allowing for an open plan layout and maximizing the use of available floor space.
Exhibition area: Suitable for large column-free exhibition areas in transportation hubs to facilitate activities and displays.
Public Facilities
Municipal buildings: used to construct adjacent municipal facilities such as information centers and waiting rooms that require strong structural support.
Community space: Community space used within a transportation hub to provide areas for public interaction and services.
Seismic and wind-resistant structure
Earthquake-resistant design: Their high strength makes them suitable for earthquake-resistant design, which is crucial for ensuring safety in earthquake-prone areas.
Wind Load Resistance: Effective for structures that need to withstand high wind loads, especially in elevated or exposed locations.
Sustainable Infrastructure Green Building Initiatives: Their efficient use of materials helps achieve sustainability goals for infrastructure projects, in line with Hong Kong’s push for environmentally friendly building practices.
Architectural Features Aesthetic Elements: Used for exposed structural elements where visual appeal is important, such as modern architectural design of stations and transportation facilities.
S960QH and S960QLH hollow structural profiles are an integral part of the construction of various infrastructure elements, especially in metros and train stations. Their high strength, durability and versatility make them suitable for a wide range of applications, enhancing functionality and aesthetics in urban environments.
