"Starfish" structure

With the completion of concrete pouring in the last area, the Nansha Youth Palace officially capped the main structure.

Yan Wei, director of the design and technical department of the Nansha Youth Palace Project of the China Construction Third Bureau, said that the special shape means that the structure is more complex and diverse than that of conventional buildings. The adolescent palace atrium connecting roof adopts a large span steel structure space truss. The cable-stayed corridor structure has a maximum span of 60 meters and a steel capacity of 1,500 tons.
