On April 18, the first steel column lifting ceremony was held for the Shanghai Planetarium project contracted by Huaxing Steel Structure Co., LTD. The successful lifting of the first steel column marks the full construction of the main steel structure of the building center of Shanghai Planetarium. 

Shanghai Planetarium is a major municipal cultural public welfare project and an important science popularization infrastructure during the 13th Five-Year Plan period. The total planned land area is 5.86 hectares, and the construction area is 38,000 square meters. The project is scheduled to be completed in 2019 and open in 2020. It is another large science popularization venue in Shanghai, and will be the largest planetarium in the world. The main building of the main building consists of a single-story spherical curtain structure, an aluminum alloy single-story inverted dome structure and a large-span multi-layer space arc cantilever truss structure, creating three obvious circles forming "three-body" features; respectively "round hole skylight", "inverted dome" and "spherical curtain halo".

   Shanghai planetarium project is a gross heterogeneous buildings, structure for many materials, system of mixed structure system, structure form and stress are very complex.Huaxing steel structure co., LTD. As Shanghai construction steel structure steel structure processing base, bear the project of all steel structure engineering design, steel component manufacturing, steel structure factory assembly and component transportation, etc.This project is the most difficult deepening, production and installation project for Huaxing Steel Structure to undertake so far, and it is also a big breakthrough for the company's development and market development.

Since the project was undertaken, the chief engineer of the company has set up the project deepening team, using Fekla deepening design software, combined with the BIM management of the whole process of the project, pursued the technology first, simulated the key points and difficulties in the implementation process of the project with digital, and prepared targeted solutions. The company also uses American Fabtrol production management software to form a "seamless" connection with BIM management to ensure the efficient operation of the project. The successful lifting of the first steel column has opened a new situation for the project for the steady progress of the project. On this basis, Huaxing Steel structure will also cheer up, solid work, strictly control the quality of the project and the site safety and civilized construction, and strive to make the project into the benchmark of the company.
