As the sports industry rapidly develops and public awareness of fitness increases, modern sports facility infrastructures continue to evolve. The advent of new Air-Supported Sports Domes addresses the challenges of traditional sports venue construction, such as lengthy approval processes, long construction times, and high entry barriers. These innovative structures facilitate the construction of diverse sports venues, increasing the per capita area available for sports facilities.

Air-supported buildings are widely used due to their fast construction, low overall cost, and large usable space. They are not only suitable for sports facilities but also for industrial purposes, environmental protection, warehousing, logistics, and emergency disaster relief. As a new type of building that does not rely on any steel structure for support, air-supported structures are rapidly emerging across the country.

 Basic Facilities of an Air-Supported Sports Dome

Air-supported sports domes are classified as temporary buildings. Currently, China does not include them in fire safety regulations. Local governments approve them as temporary structures, which means they do not require the complicated procedures typical of traditional buildings. Therefore, the approval process for air-supported buildings is relatively straightforward. In terms of construction, significant attention must be paid to preliminary preparations, as they directly impact the project's progress, quality, and safety.

The basic facilities of an air-supported sports dome include the following aspects:

 1. Design Plan

The preliminary design plan forms the foundation of the entire project. It includes site planning, determination of building area, and equipment configuration. A scientific and reasonable design plan is crucial for the project's success.

 2. Foundation Construction

Foundation construction costs typically account for about 10% of the total cost. These costs are significantly influenced by the project's building area—the larger the area, the higher the cost-effectiveness. For air-supported sports domes, the foundation costs are relatively fixed but must ensure stability and sturdiness.

 3. Equipment Configuration

Air-supported sports domes are equipped with intelligent management systems to monitor internal temperature, humidity, air pressure, and other data. Equipment configurations include air conditioning systems, ventilation systems, and lighting systems. If an air conditioning system is included, equipment costs make up 30-40% of the total cost; without it, equipment costs account for 20-30%.

 4. Membrane Material Selection

The choice of membrane material is critical, as it directly impacts the quality and lifespan of the building. Common materials include polyester fiber fabric, PVDF, PVF, and PTFE. These materials maintain a stable shape and can bear a certain load.

 5. Construction Preparations

This includes preparing equipment, organizing personnel, and procuring materials. Adequate preliminary preparations are essential for ensuring smooth construction.

 6. Maintenance Management

Routine maintenance is primarily conducted by maintenance personnel. Air-supported buildings have low maintenance costs. Regular inspections and upkeep ensure normal use and extend the building's lifespan.

 Advantages of Air-Supported Sports Domes

Compared to traditional buildings, air-supported sports domes offer the following advantages:

Low Cost: The overall construction cost of air-supported buildings is low.

Short Construction Period: These buildings can be completed within a few months.

High Mobility: Air-supported buildings are easily dismantled and relocated, offering great flexibility.

Energy Efficiency and Environmental Friendliness: These buildings comply with low-carbon, green building standards and have low operational and maintenance costs.

As technology advances and market demand grows, air-supported sports domes, with their unique advantages, are gaining widespread popularity.
