Site selection

The Shougang Ski Jumping platform was built on the site of Shougang. While most of the previous big jumps were temporary facilities that would be dismantled after use, the Shougang Ski Jump is the world's first permanent single board big jump. Considering its permanent preservation and use, Beijing and the Olympic Organizing Committee quickly focused their attention on Shougang.
The Shougang Cooling Tower, the Ming Lake and the Xishan Mountain skyline in the west of Beijing are childhood memories of many "old Beijing". The design team hoped that in the process of transformation, it could not only meet the requirements of the Winter Olympics and give Shougang new meaning, but also preserve the integrity of the industrial site and retain this precious emotion. To this end, the design team used a number of new technologies, including virtual reality and human factor testing technology, and also invited old Shougang people who have lived in Shougang for 30 or 40 years to help judge what kind of Angle can continue the memory of Shougang industry, and finally determine the construction Angle. The end area of the platform is sunk 5 meters below the surface of the lake, so that the platform as a whole does not appear higher than the cooling tower, but a curve extending from the height of the cooling tower.

On the flight curve path, the height of the protective net must be 2 meters higher than the height of the air, and the "flying" ribbon form effectively takes into account the role of wind protection on both sides of the jumping platform and support the protective net. The two-section arc streamers are made of special space shaped truss structure, and the tube truss tire frame is set up. Numerical control technology is used to ensure accuracy and reduce consumables.

The design inspiration of the Shougang Ski Jump comes from the match between the section curve of the jump competition and the image of the "flying sky" in Dunhuang, so the Shougang Ski Jump is also called "snow flying sky". The English name of this sport is "Big Air", which means to jump and fly in the air. The athletes jump into the air to the maximum extent from helping to slide to jumping, tumbling and landing. China is very famous World cultural Heritage Dunhuang frescoes The flying ribbon has become a carrier to express the dynamic curve of this sport, and the architecture built with the curve of the ribbon is very beautiful and smooth, conveying the romance of Chinese style to the world. The site selection of this competition project was finally set in the Shougang Industrial Heritage Area beside the Yongding River, where there are cooling towers, cooling pools, blast furnaces, silos, and the scene is very unique. In this way, the world's first permanent ski jump is neatly combined with China's industrial heritage.
