Bird's Nest (China's National Stadium for Beijing 2008
Olympics). Its outer layer of membrane was
created by using 884 individual ETFE panels, covering a
total of 38,500 square meters, and
its inner layer
consists of 1044 PTFE panels covering up to 53,000 square
meters
of roofing area. The PTFE frame, along with
other design concepts, help to
ensure that every fan
sitting in any corner of the stadium will be able to
hear announcements made over the broadcasting system
clearly. This
special membrane can also help lighting
within the stadium and
effectively diminish glare and
shadowing, allowing
for a more favorable competition
environment.

Mechanics Properties of
Membrane Material
The main
characteristics of membrane structure materials are their
high-strength, fire-retardant, durable and self-cleaning.
The material is usually a coated
fabric composed of two parts, the fabric and the coating.
The fabric is basically made of high strength polyester or
glass fibers, woven in two different ways. The fabric
material and the method of weaving determine the
material’s mechanical properties such as tensile strength
and tearing resistance. For the coating, mainly PTFE or
PVC coatings are used, that enhances the performance and
durability of the membrane material and add qualities such
as self-cleaning and UV reduction etc.. For PVC membrane
materials, a surface layer of fluoride or silicon is often
applied to enhance its fire resistance, durability,
waterproofing and self cleansing.

Classification of Membrane Material
Membrane
materials are made of different components and can be
divided into three categories, according to their chemical
composition as follows:
PVC
Membrane Materials
PVC is Poly
Vinyl Chloride. In general PVC membrane materials are
composed of high-strength polyester fibers with both sides
coating of PVC. In order to protect the PVC coating’s
chemical stability under the sun, a relatively stable
Polyvinylidene (PVDF) top layer is applied, thereby
improving the durability as well as the self-cleaning of
the PVC membrane material. The life span of PVC membrane
material is more than 20 years. It has certain
self-cleaning properties, B1 fire resistance level, and a
tensile strength between 2500/2200 N/5cm and 10000/8000
N/5cm depending on the material’s thickness (0.5-1.14 mm).
The transparency reaches from 5.5% to 12% . The
transparency of the inner membrane material can reach more
than 50%.
PTFE Membrane Materials
PTFE is Poly
Tetra Fluoride Ethylene. In general, PTFE membrane
materials are made of high strength glass fiber fabric
with a PTFE coating on both sides. PTFE itself has good
chemical stabilities and therefore does not need any other
surface protection. The life span of PTFE membrane
materials is more than 30 years, it has good self cleaning
properties, A1 fire-resistance level and a tensile
strength ranging form 4800/3300 N/5cm to 11000/9000 N/5cm
depending on material thickness (0.37-1.00 mm). The
transparency of the material is 10%-22%.
ETFE
Type Membrane Materials
ETFE is Ethylene
Tetra Fluoride Ethylene. ETFE membrane materials do not
have a fabric core and just consist of a film of ETFE. The
material has a good chemical stability and therefore does
not need any other surface protection. The material life
of ETFE is 30 years and above, it has good self-cleaning
properties, an A1 fire- resistance level, a tensile
strength of 45-60 N/mm2 depending on material thickness
(0.012-0.5
mm) and a transparency of 95%.
