On July 7, 2015, the custom-shaped components for the Sri Lankan Military Academy project undertaken by Zhejiang Company were successfully shipped from the factory.
The project’s roof is designed to resemble Sri Lanka’s national flower: a blooming lotus. The outer petals are formed using a single-layer tubular truss system, while the central ring employs a prestressed cable‑stayed single‑layer grid shell. The overall structure is highly complex, posing significant challenges for detailed modeling and precise spatial dimensioning during fabrication. All components are curved circular tubes, further complicating transportation and packaging. With concerted effort, all employees of the Zhejiang company overcame these difficulties, working overtime to successfully complete the task. During this period, representatives from the military, along with the design and supervision teams, visited the company for inspection and acceptance, commending the product quality and component packaging, and unanimously approving the project as ready for shipment. The smooth dispatch of components for the Sri Lankan Military Academy marks another step forward in Zhejiang Company’s international market expansion, following its acquisition of the “Qualification Certificate for Foreign Contracting Projects” on May 19.
