Gsi Outdoors Collapsible Water Cube

Product Information

The ETFE (the ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene copolymer) membrane insulates it. This advanced membrane structure is formed by 3,065 bubble-like pneumatic cushions of all sizes. It becomes the first large-scale public project coated with the membrane, and it also has set up a new world record for its massive deployment.

The space between the air-pillow walls has been completely sealed off creating a layer of insulation. During summer, a 1 metre-high vent regulates the indoor temperature of the building through heat exchange by drawing out the inside warm air and letting in the outside cool air.

The translucent and recyclable ETFE panels ensurethe centre is well lit during the day with appropriate levels of internal daylight, visual connection and visual comfort. Up to 55% savings on lighting energy useare achieved in the leisure pool hall. For the one on the east, pop all the bubbles first to spawn a condensed waterplank.

Come and Marvel at the Beijing Water Cube

This seemingly simple "cube" was designed according to traditional Chinese culture as well as modern science and technology. Ancient Chinese believed that heaven was like a dome covering the square earth. Designed by Chinese and Australian, the National Aquatics Center is the first building in the world built upon "the soap bubble" theory, and sports a polyhedral steel-framed structure. Outstanding Organization Award offered to the Water Cube in April, 2010 for the "Warm Yushu: Beijing Workers in Action" donation event (left) City Seaview at Xiedao Resort is the largest man-made seaside resort at 60,000 square meters, and is really more than a water park. It is more like a beach. The resort has a tropical beach setting, complete with waves, sand, coconut trees and umbrellas. The beach is a hub of activity; people surf, sunbathe, play volleyball, or relax and enjoy their surroundings. Guide commissions: RMB 100 yuan per tour (Chinese), RMB 150 yuan per tour (English). Tours are subject to a time limit.

The highly sustainable structure is clad with ethyl tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) that weighs just 1% of an equivalent sized glass panel. This exhibition shows how the Water Cube was the only Olympic venue to be built using donations from compatriots fromHong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, and overseas Chinese. The exhibition's photography captures how the sons and daughters of the Chinese nation generously donated their money to the Beijing Olympics and for the construction of the Olympic venue. The pictures rekindled feelings of the kith and kin between the Chinese people.

How to Get to the National Aquatics Center in Beijing

One of the challenges encountered by the designers was convincing Chinese authorities of the value of ETFE. Gail Architektur-Keramik, a tiles supplier, provided tiles for the project, while Sika, a speciality chemicals company, supplied silicone sealants.

The design of National Aquatics Center combines modern technologies with Chinese traditional values. In tradition, Chinese conceptualized a square Earth and a round Heaven, and this formed the design's central theme. Moreover, the cube shape dominates ancient urban buildings. Its design is of traditional style to meet all its functional requirements. This exhibition is situated on the fourth floor of the eastern side of the Water Cube's South Building. Covering nearly 300 square meters, the exhibition area boasts top-rate facilities and specialized and systemized services run by a professional operating team. The Water Cube is granted the title "The Blessing Land for Olympic Champions and the Cradle of Reserved Talents" in December, 2012 (right) Underground in the South Square of the Water Cube, the Ice Cube ice sports center is under construction at the same time and is estimated to begin trial operation next May.Among its special features is the method of financing the project, since it has been paid entirely by the donation of Chinese emigrants abroad.

For agricultural and farming purposes a water bowser can be fitted with a animal feeding trough. These water troughs tend to refill automatically when the float inside reaches a certain level it will open a tap fitted to the water bowser and allow clean water to enter the trough. Making it a low maintenance job feeding animals across farms and countryside. Landscaping, estate management, local councils and grounds keepers may use water bowsers to water plants, flowers and crop in a variety of ways. Some water bowsers can be fitted with sprayers, but the majority are fitted with 1" water pumps connected to a hose reel and have a hose pipe gun or spray lance. These water bowsers can also be manufactured with rear chevron boards and flashing beacons for working roadside. Larger water pumps can also be fitted to a water bowser for feeding larger trees that require a lot of water directly pumped into the ground surrounding the tree. It hosted its first event in this configuration, the China Junior Curling Open, in December 2019. [30] Awards [ edit ] The building is supported by a system of structural steel and concrete that only follows the logic of the bubbles, creating a three-dimensional structure of 6,700 tons of steel resembling to a formation of soap bubbles in a bathtub.
