Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of building construction technology, and specifically relates to a method for constructing floodlighting for Tpo waterproof curved steel structure roofs. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, people have placed increasingly higher demands on the functionality, aesthetics, and environmental friendliness of buildings. Curved steel structures, as a new type of roofing technology, have gradually gained widespread application in the construction field due to their advantages such as high load-bearing capacity, beautiful shapes, and rapid construction. At the same time, with the popularization of energy conservation and emission reduction concepts, the installation of floodlighting systems on curved steel structure roofs has become an inevitable trend.

[0003] Currently, there are two main types of floodlighting commonly used on curved steel structure roofs: one is to hang the lighting fixtures directly above the roof, and the other is to install the lighting fixtures at the eaves. Both methods have certain drawbacks: directly hung lighting fixtures can obstruct the view from the roof, affecting the overall aesthetics of the building; while lighting fixtures installed at the eaves, although they do not obstruct the view, have a poorer lighting effect due to their greater distance from the radiating surface, failing to meet the requirements for uniform floodlighting.

[0004] Furthermore, installing floodlighting systems on curved steel roof structures requires consideration of numerous factors, including piping and waterproofing. Conventional piping layouts often employ simple parallel or radial arrangements, failing to fully utilize the limited roof space and resulting in dense, congested piping that can easily damage the existing waterproofing layer. This not only affects the safety and reliability of the floodlighting system but also increases the difficulty of subsequent maintenance.

[0005] Therefore, how to achieve floodlighting on curved steel structure roofs while meeting the requirements of reasonable pipeline layout and waterproof performance is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

This satisfies both the load-bearing capacity requirements of the pipelines and ensures the integrity of the waterproofing layer.

[0156] 2. Application of rubber pads and cable trays

[0157] To ensure the safety and waterproofing performance of the pipelines, this invention pre-installs rubber pads and galvanized steel cable trays on the roof. The rubber pads facilitate subsequent pipeline installation and waterproofing, while the cable trays provide reliable support and protection for the pipelines. These measures not only effectively prevent damage to the pipelines from external forces but also ensure good compatibility with the existing waterproofing layer, guaranteeing the overall waterproofing performance of the system.

[0158] 3. Optimization of lamp holder parameters

[0159] This invention addresses the characteristics of lighting on curved steel structure roofs by employing a set of optimized lamp holder parameters. Based on factors such as the required illuminance I_0, the lighting area A, and the lamp installation coordinates (x, y), it calculates the lamp holder height H, length L, and tilt angle θ to achieve the ideal lighting effect. This not only ensures that the lighting effect of each lamp meets the standards but also achieves uniform floodlighting across the entire roof, thereby improving the building's user experience.

[0160] In summary, the Tpo waterproof curved steel structure roof floodlighting construction method of this invention fully considers factors such as pipeline layout, waterproof performance, and lighting effect. Through systematic design and optimization, it achieves coordinated cooperation among various subsystems, thereby achieving a relatively ideal technical effect.

[0161] To better understand and implement this invention, a specific application scenario is provided below: A newly built intelligent manufacturing industrial park in a certain city uses a curved steel structure as the roof form of the main building. To achieve uniform floodlighting on the roof while avoiding affecting the overall aesthetics of the building, the project team decided to use the Tpo waterproof curved steel structure roof floodlighting construction method proposed in this invention. The principle is based on the characteristics of Tpo waterproof layer which cannot be drilled, electromechanical pipelines which cannot be directly fixed, and the complex installation nodes of curved steel structure lighting fixtures. By using brackets attached to the roof steel structure and a rubber support block that can be pasted onto the Tpo waterproof layer, and by customizing special brackets for the lighting fixtures, the technical methods for floodlighting construction pipeline support and lighting fixture installation are solved.

[0162] The specific implementation process is as follows:

[0163] 1. Integrated pipeline layout

[0164] First, the project team conducted a comprehensive survey and measurement of parameters such as the roof curvature, number of pipelines, pipeline specifications, load requirements, and waterproofing layer thickness of the new factory building. Based on the obtained data, a pipeline layout optimization model was used to optimize the design of the fixed spacing and fixing device positions of the pipelines. The main parameters involved in this model are as follows:

[0165] Roof curvature R = 15m;

[0166] Number of pipelines n = 32

[0167] Pipeline Specification Parameter D r =25mm;

[0168] Total load L t =5.2kN;

[0169] Waterproof layer thickness T0 = 3mm;

[0170] Based on model calculations, the optimal pipeline fixing spacing was determined to be 1.5m, with the fixing device positions distributed along the pipeline in a sinusoidal pattern. Subsequently, the designers used BIM software to comprehensively arrange the pipelines and generate detailed construction drawings.

[0171] 2. Measurement of pipeline installation location

[0172] Based on the aforementioned BIM drawings, the surveying team conducted actual measurements and positioning of the pipeline installation locations and fixing device locations. Using a total station, the starting and ending coordinates of each pipeline, as well as the specific locations of the fixing devices, were measured and recorded in a logbook for future reference.

[0173] 3. Installation of rubber pads and brackets

[0174] To ensure the stability and waterproofing of the pipeline installation, the project team customized a special rubber pad. This pad has a trapezoidal cross-section, with a short side length of 100mm, a long side length of 150mm, and a height of 100mm. The rubber pad contains a 5cm long nut; the nut for fixing JDG conduit is M4, and the nut for fixing cable trays is M8. Based on the pipeline layout above the pad, an integrated pad was selected. Figure 2 As shown.

[0175] First, at the pipe installation locations above the TPO waterproof membrane on the roof, rubber pads were individually glued and fixed using specialized epoxy resin adhesive, with a spacing of 1.5m. Then, the project team fabricated a galvanized steel bracket, which was bolted to the roof steel structure columns, with 20mm clearance on both sides of the flat steel for installing the rubber pads. Finally, adhesive was applied to the bottom of the previously glued rubber pads, and they were placed on the bottom of the bracket's flat steel against the waterproof layer, forming a stable support system. The bracket installation process was as follows: first, the fabricated bracket was fixed to the steel roof support columns, with 20mm clearance on both sides of the flat steel for the TPO waterproof layer and the rubber pads installed. Then, adhesive was applied to the bottom of the rubber pads, and they were placed on the bottom of the flat steel to adhere to the waterproof layer. Rubber pads were then glued to the remaining locations at 2m intervals along the pipe installation direction. The main function of the rubber pads is to support the pipes. After the pipeline installation is completed, a special bracket is fabricated to prevent horizontal displacement. The steel roof support columns serve as fixing points. A custom-made bracket made of flat steel is then connected to the pipeline to secure it and prevent horizontal displacement. This bracket does not bear any load. See the diagram for the bracket. Figure 3 .

[0176] 4. Pipeline installation

[0177] With the aforementioned rubber pads and supports as a foundation, pipeline installation becomes very simple. First, place a 100mm x 100mm galvanized steel cable tray on top of the rubber pads and secure it to the pads using dedicated metal fasteners. Then, install the pipeline (using JDG20 model) on the cable tray and apply heat-shrink tubing for waterproofing at the pipeline joints. For safety, the cable tray supports also need to be reliably grounded. See the pipeline installation diagram below. Figure 4 .

[0178] Throughout the pipeline installation process, the designers strictly followed the requirements of the BIM drawings and repeatedly checked against the actual situation to ensure that the pipeline route was consistent with the design.

[0179] 5. Cable laying

[0180] After the pipeline installation was completed, the construction workers began laying the cables. First, they carefully checked the integrity of the protective covers at each pipe opening and replaced or supplemented them as needed. To ensure smooth cable threading, an appropriate amount of talcum powder was also blown into the pipes.

[0181] During actual threading, designers strictly adhere to the following requirements:

[0182] 1. Before threading the wires through the conduit, check that the protective caps at each conduit opening are intact. If any are missing or damaged, they should be replaced. When the conduit is long or has many bends, blow an appropriate amount of talcum powder into the conduit while threading the wires. When two people are threading the wires, they should coordinate with each other, one pulling and the other feeding.

[0183] 2. The following points should be noted when wiring: Wires in the same AC circuit must be run in the same conduit; wires in the same circuit but with different voltages, and AC and DC wires, must not be run in the same conduit. Circuits with a nominal voltage of 50V or less, power circuits of the same equipment or the same assembly line equipment, control circuits without special interference requirements, several circuits of the same decorative light, and several circuits of the same type of lighting, but the total number of wires in the conduit should not exceed 8, may be run in the same conduit.

[0184] 3. At expansion joints, the compensation device should move freely. Sufficient slack should be allowed in the conductor.

[0185] 4. When the length exceeds the following limits, it shall be secured at the pipe opening and in the junction box: 30m for conductors with a cross-sectional area of ​​50mm2 or less; 20m for conductors with a cross-sectional area of ​​70-95mm2; and 18m for conductors with a cross-sectional area between 180-240mm2.

[0186] 5. Requirements for conductor connections: Conductor joints should not increase resistance; stressed conductors should not reduce their original mechanical strength; and the original insulation strength should not be reduced. These standardized procedures ensure the safety and reliability of the cables.

[0187] 6. Detailed explanation of lighting fixture installation details

[0188] Based on the building's intended use and lighting standards, the project team determined the required average illuminance for the factory roof to be I0 = 300 Lx. Simultaneously, considering the actual roof shape and surface paving method, the designers pre-reserved appropriately sized installation holes for lighting fixtures on the BIM model and recorded the planar coordinates (x, y) of each hole in the logbook.

[0189] To achieve a uniform floodlight effect across the entire roof while avoiding glare, the project team customized curved floodlight fixtures ranging from 0.5m to 1.0m in length, based on the roof's curvature. This not only meets the lighting requirements but also harmonizes with the roof's overall design.

[0190] 7. Lighting Fixture Bracket Design and Installation

[0191] Considering the characteristics of the curved roof, the project team used a set of parameter optimization equations to design the lighting fixture brackets. The main parameters involved are as follows:

[0192] The coordinates of the lamp installation location are (x, y) = (12.5m, 15.2m);

[0193] Required illuminance I0 = 300 Lx;

[0194] Actual measured illuminance I r =280Lx;

[0195] The roof dimension is L r =40m, W r =25m;

[0196] Light fixture weight W l =12kg;

[0197] Waterproof layer thickness T = 3mm;

[0198] Based on the above parameters, the optimized design of the lamp holder is as follows:

[0199] The support frame height H = 2.8m;

[0200] The support frame length L = 1.2m;

[0201] The bracket tilt angle θ = 25°;

[0202] The formula for calculating the height of the support frame is as follows:

[0203]

[0204] The formula for calculating the length of the support is:

[0205]

[0206] The formula for calculating the tilt angle of the support is:

[0207]

[0208] To address the issue of achieving the design effect based on the above parameters, the construction team, through repeated trials and experimentation with new technological solutions, specifically designed floodlight fixtures and their fixing and installation structures suitable for this project. The fixtures, installed on the inclined steel structure, can have their installation angle adjusted using two curved plates. A schematic diagram of the fixture support can be found [link to diagram]. Figure 5 .

[0209] The lamp holders are installed simultaneously with the roof steel structure installation, according to the lamp arrangement.

[0210] 1. Lighting fixture installation process:

[0211] The general installation process for all types of lighting fixtures in this project is as follows: component installation → lighting fixture inspection → lighting fixture assembly → lighting fixture installation → power-on trial operation.

[0212] 2. Lighting fixture adjustment

[0213] Power-on trial operation is permitted only after the lighting fixtures are installed and the insulation resistance of each branch circuit has passed the test. After power-on, a careful inspection and patrol should be conducted to check whether the lights are working properly and whether the control is flexible and accurate. If any problems are found, the power must be cut off first, and then the cause should be found and repaired.

[0214] Based on the above calculations, the project team fabricated a lamp holder consisting of two curved steel plates, which was installed simultaneously during the roof steel structure installation. After installation, the lamp's tilt angle was adjusted to the optimal state by adjusting the bolts on the holder, ensuring uniform floodlighting across the entire roof.

[0215] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
