“Bias-Pro” Steel Cable Harness System

"Bias-Pro" Steel Cable Harness System is a net of steel cables that goes over the entire membrane surface and attaches to the dome foundation. It covers the entire dome, distributing the forces acting on the fabric of the dome evenly across the entire structure.

Without the Bias-Pro System, the structure is just an air-supported structure with weak stiffness, and the dome shape would be stretched with heavy snow loads.

With Bias-Pro, the structure with much stronger stiffness and dome shape remains unchanged with heavy snow loads. The structure could handle up to 2-inch H2O internal pressure.

☆ Unique patented Bias-Pro system with aesthetic design.

☆ Completely cover the outer membrane, greatly reduce the stress of the membrane material, and extend the service life.

☆ Force transfer path is clear. The calculations of fabric, cable nets, anchoring system, and anchorage foundation meet the architectural code.

☆ According to the 50-year load standard for the design of the structure, withstand 67 m/s wind (level 16 typhoon) and more than 250 kg/m² of snow.

☆ Deformation is small, less than 20cm; Without a cable net, it is over 2m.

☆ On a stormy day, internal pressure can increase to 500-600pa, withstand the snow.
