A membrane structure is an architectural structure that uses highly flexible fabric or membrane materials as the primary component. These materials are stretched and tensioned using steel frames, poles, or cables to create a strong and durable form. Membrane structures are often used in large roofing constructions that require flexibility and lightweight properties, such as stadiums, open-air theaters, or exhibition spaces.

Tomas Engineering's membrane structure technology allows ITCC to take on a new role as a transportation hub, creating a bright, comfortable and shaded space.

The ITCC project, completed in 2019, is an excellent example of Tomas Engineering's membrane structure technology. This technology is lightweight and highly safe, and creates a bright and comfortable space for users by letting in natural light and providing comfortable shade. It is applied to a variety of public spaces, such as transportation nodes such as stations, airports, and ports, and rest areas in parks.

Features
Light and safe: Tomas Engineering's membrane structures are lightweight without compromising durability and safety.
Utilization of natural light: The design effectively incorporates natural light to provide an energy-efficient space.
Creation of comfortable shade: Alleviates the strong sunlight in the summer and allows warm light to enter the room in the winter.
Multi-purpose use: Can be used for a variety of purposes, including transportation hubs, parks, and commercial facilities.

specification
Structure type: tent-shaped membrane structure using special synthetic material.
Scope of application: Suitable for a wide range of public spaces such as stations, airports, ports, park rest areas, etc.
Maintainability: Can be operated for a long period of time with low maintenance.
Design: A design that naturally brings in light and wind, with user comfort as the top priority.

The ITCC project used Tomas Engineering's membrane structure technology to create a safe, comfortable, and beautiful public space. This technology is enriching people's lives at transportation hubs, parks, etc.
