Hangzhou Olympic Sports Center

Project case introduction

The Hangzhou Olympic Sports Center Main Stadium (“Big Lotus”) is an architectural landmark featuring an innovative spatial steel structure formed by 28 dynamic petal-shaped cantilever trusses. Utilizing approximately 28,000 metric tons of high-strength structural steel, this 80,000-seat megastructure achieves a lightweight yet extremely rigid spatial frame. The project highlights advanced 3D spatial pipe bending, high-precision CNC fabrication, complex multi-planar node welding, and 100% NDT-certified quality control.
