At 7 pm local time on October 20th, early morning on the 21st, Beijing time, the 2017 IFD International Roofing Engineering Case Award Ceremony was held at the Vienna City Hall. The 2017 IFD award-winning projects were selected. The "Meixi Lake International Culture and Art Center Project" and the "Foshan Public Cultural Complex Square Tower Project" undertaken by Yabaite won the nomination awards for metal roofing and metal enclosure system respectively.

Chairman's speech

    The International Roofing Federation (IFD) was established in 1952 as an international roofing industry alliance with members in 25 countries and regions. The International Roofing Federation (IFD) holds a roofing project case award selection event every two years (every odd-numbered year), aiming to reward outstanding construction skills and safety protection measures among high-quality roofing companies. This year's awards included 4 units of slope roof, flat roof, metal roof and metal enclosure system. A total of 81 projects from 15 countries submitted applications.

    As an international roofing engineering award, there are many applications for this award. Among them, 19 projects from 7 countries have participated in the application for metal roofing units, and there are 5 nominations. The Meixi Lake International Culture and Art Center project undertaken by Yabaite is the posthumous work of the famous architect Zaha Hadid. The appearance of the project is outlined by a snake-like curved curve, and the shape is like a blooming hibiscus flower. Roundabout. The project includes two main bodies, a grand theater of 48,000 square meters and an art gallery of 45,000 square meters. It also includes a small theater building. It is a world-class large-scale opera, dance drama, symphony and other elegant art performance venues. It is also Hunan Province, China. The largest, most comprehensive, nationally leading and world-class international cultural and art center.

Nomination Award for Metal Roof Unit-Meixi Lake International Culture and Art Center Project

    The design of the project is extremely complicated, and it is difficult to design, process and install. The appearance of each monomer is outlined by a snake-like curved curve. Its unique and complex shape poses a great challenge to the design of roofing engineering, component processing and on-site installation. The roof piercing waterproof treatment effect is good. The construction process is complicated. All the measuring points of the project are three-dimensional space points, which puts forward high requirements for the measurement and laying out; the roof structure has many layers and materials, and its complex shape makes the on-site material transfer not very convenient and makes the on-site construction more difficult. The flexible waterproof material sprayed on site is used.

    For the metal enclosure system unit, 12 projects from 5 countries participated in the application, and 3 nomination awards were set up. The only public cultural complex with a square tower exterior design in South China, and also a landmark of the large-scale public cultural complex in Foshan City-Foshan City Public Cultural Complex, the square tower project was undertaken by Yabaite.

Nomination Award for Metal Enclosure System Unit-Foshan Public Cultural Complex: Fang Tower Project

    The project has a unique shape. The project is formed by the superposition of multiple cube blocks. The construction of the curtain wall at the bottom of the tower cube block cantilever is difficult and the risk factor is high. The safety of the construction is ensured by drilling holes in the floor bearing slab and fixing the hanging basket for the construction, which is of reference significance for the installation of the curtain wall in the construction cantilever area. There are many types of curtain walls. The project consists of exposed-frame glass curtain walls, structural texture curtain walls, decorative texture curtain walls, all-glass curtain walls, and stone curtain walls. The construction of the oblique grid texture structure is difficult. The engineering oblique grid texture structure, especially the decorative texture glass panel, has strict processing requirements. Each panel is independently numbered. The installation sequence must be strictly controlled during construction, and the relationship between the inner and outer sheets must be paid attention to. High quality requirements and tight schedules. This project is also the only public cultural complex with a tower exterior design in South China, with high quality requirements. At the same time, the on-site space is limited, and the requirements for construction deployment and material organization are relatively high.

The Square Tower of Foshan Public Cultural Complex

    Jiangsu Yabaite Technology Co., Ltd., as the first A-share listed company in the metal roof enclosure system industry, has always been leading the industry as its mission. . Shandong Yabaite Technology Co., Ltd. to which it belongs has made great progress in the industry in recent years and ranks ahead in the industry. Under the active promotion and guidance of industry associations, the domestic roofing system industry has developed rapidly in terms of technological innovation, construction technology, new materials, industry standards, and talent training.

    This time, Yabaite represented the enclosure system industry, represented Chinese companies going abroad, and showed its prominence on the international stage of the industry with its technical strength and engineering projects. Yabaite won two nomination awards at the IFD International Roofing Engineering Awards, which also represents that the quality of Chinese roofing engineering has once again been praised overseas, allowing China's regional landmark architecture to set a benchmark in the world, and the image of "Chinese quality" is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
