Research on Digital Modeling Process and Key Technologies for Complex UHPC Shapes

When architectural aesthetics collide with digital technology, UHPC complex forms are reshaping city skylines with astonishing expressiveness. As an industry leader with 28 years of deep expertise in the UHPC/GRC/GRG/GRP materials field, Qinglong Group has always upheld the mission of "creating beautiful architecture," deeply integrating digital modeling technology into the entire material application process to provide designers and owners with full-chain solutions from concept to realization.

Digital Modeling: The Core Engine Unlocking UHPC Form Artistry

In the creation of UHPC (Ultra-High Performance Concrete) decorative components, digital modeling acts like a "virtual carving knife," giving the material form-making possibilities beyond physical limits. Leveraging the technical advantages of its national-level R&D center, Qinglong Group has built a full-process digital system encompassing parametric design, BIM collaboration, and structural simulation. Taking the translucent concrete project at Century Plaza on Nanjing East Road as an example, a parametric model built on the Rhino and Grasshopper platforms successfully achieved a light-transmitting hole array design with 0.3mm-level precision, transforming the building skin into a breathable "canvas of light and shadow." The project won the Silver Award in the first UHPC Construction Engineering Innovation Award of the AALBORG WHITE Cup.

Key Technological Breakthroughs: Four-Dimensional Control from Design to Realization

Digital modeling of complex UHPC forms requires overcoming three core challenges. First is form conversion technology: the Qinglong team innovatively developed a dual-track model of "reverse engineering + forward design," capturing natural form data through 3D laser scanning and combining it with self-developed proprietary GRC/UHPC algorithms to generate buildable models, enabling the 12m-high hyperbolic GRG ceiling in the Dongguan Women and Children's Activity Center project to achieve zero-error splicing. Second is performance simulation optimization: using ANSYS for material stress analysis, and while meeting the industry standard "General Technical Conditions for Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) Non-Bearing Components," the self-weight of components was reduced by 15%, greatly improving construction safety. Finally is intelligent production integration: directly connecting the BIM model with the CNC machining equipment at the Nanning, Guangxi production base achieves a seamless connection from digital model to mold processing, with production efficiency improved by 40% compared to traditional processes.

Full-Chain Empowerment: Qinglong's Digital Practice Built on 28 Years of Experience

As a national "Specialized, Refined, Distinctive, and Innovative" enterprise, Qinglong Group runs digital modeling technology through the entire process of detailed design, production manufacturing, and construction installation. In the detailed design stage, it provides full-cycle BIM services from scheme optimization to node detail drawings, helping designers solve the implementability challenges of complex forms; in production, the ERP system enables digital control of mold management, material ratios, and curing cycles, ensuring stable quality across an annual capacity of 600,000 square meters; in the construction stage, 3D positioning technology keeps the installation precision of the UHPC special-shaped curtain walls within 2mm for a commercial complex project in Shenzhen. This "digital twin"-style full-process management is precisely the core competitiveness that enables Qinglong to undertake overseas projects in Malaysia, Australia, and beyond.

From European classical lines to modern parametric skins, the formal boundaries of UHPC are constantly expanding, driven by digital technology. Building on 28 years of industry experience, Qinglong Group will continue to explore the integrated innovation of digital modeling and new materials, providing more imaginative solutions for the architectural decoration industry. As stated in Qinglong's corporate vision, we are committed to becoming "an outstanding world-leading manufacturer of UHPC/GRC/GRG/GRP," enabling every architectural creative idea to become reality through technological empowerment.
