ZAK WORLD OF FAÇADES, CHINA

Xuekun Qian, Executive Director and Founding Partner of Inhabit, presented at the ZAK World of Façades China conference held at the Shanghai Marriot Hotel on July 25. More than 600 guests attended this event.

Xuekun presented the curtain wall design of Xi An International Conference Center, a recently completed Inhabit project. One of the many challenging parts of the project is the steel mullion design of the curtain wall on the  south façade. The span of the mullions varies from 25m to 43m, which makes the facade the largest steel mullion supported curtain wall in China. Inhabit’s design team in Shanghai did thorough analysis and engineering on this project and finally turned this mission impossible into reality.
