Chapter 829 Materials

And the astronauts are always rotating and will not stay on Mars for a long time.

The residents in the Martian city are completely different. If they are allowed to live in closed buildings in the future, it is estimated that some people will go crazy in a short time.

Therefore, the Martian city must at least use a certain amount of external space for the residents in the city to move around.

Finally, Jiang Cheng chose the current design plan, in which all the buildings are in an open-air environment.

In this Martian city, Jiang Cheng plans to arrange ordinary buildings in the city, which are exactly the same as the buildings on the water ball, and not to close all the buildings.

But such a design model requires a protective layer in the outer area to isolate the entire city from the outside environment.

So Jiang Cheng came up with a way, which is to protect the entire city by building a dome.

Jiang Cheng plans to build a huge dome in the outer area of ​​the city to surround the entire city.

In this way, the low temperature outside and the air that is not suitable for human breathing will no longer affect the humans in the city.

The entire dome is like a protective device to protect the humans inside.

Although this design is much better for the residents inside, it adds countless difficulties to the construction.

It is a difficult task to build a huge palace roof that can surround the entire city.

It takes a lot of effort to build a roof covering a gymnasium in the water polo area.

Now Jiang Cheng wants to build a palace roof covering an entire city, which is simply a super project.

It can be said that the construction of the roof is the most difficult and smoothest part of the entire project.

Jiang Cheng is busy with this matter now, and now he has encountered the biggest difficulty in the project.

How to build this giant roof is a problem that Jiang Cheng has been thinking about recently.

The construction materials of the palace roof have been delivered, right? I don’t want to see the situation of insufficient materials during construction.

Jiang Cheng is in the engineering command center, asking about the materials.

Such a large palace roof requires an astronomical number of materials.

It is estimated that all the materials needed to build the palace roof are more than the materials needed for the entire city.

Judging from the amount of work, the construction of the palace roof accounts for more than half of the entire project. It is no wonder that Jiang Cheng is concerned about this aspect.

Now the construction of the Hengding will begin soon. If so many materials are not supplied in sufficient quantities, the progress of the entire project will be greatly slowed down.

The last batch of materials has been produced and will be transported from the water ball soon. "Don't worry about the material problem, Mr. Jiang. We will definitely be able to keep up with the progress of our construction.

Tong confirmed this matter with the water ball yesterday, so he is very clear about this matter.

The materials for building the roof are special and cannot be produced on Mars, so they can only be manufactured on the water ball and then transported to Mars for installation.

Many materials for building the Martian city are locally sourced on Mars.

After several years of development, the mining industry on Mars has been very developed and can be supplied to them for construction work.

However, many materials still need to be transported to Mars due to the difficulty of production. It has to be transported from the water ball, and the material used to build the roof is one of them.

The roof designed by Jiang Cheng is made of transparent material, and it is much stronger than steel, and can completely withstand the harsh climate on Mars.

Such advanced materials cannot be produced on Mars, so they can only be transported here.

The dome built with transparent materials is of course transparent, so this city will have a transparent roof in the future.

Imagine that the residents of this city will be able to look up and see the starry sky on Mars in the future. This feeling is simply amazing.

If the roof cannot be transparent, then the residents of this city will live in a large stadium in the future. Among them.

It feels like no one will leave this building, which is not much different from a closed building.

Jiang Cheng planned to use transparent materials to build the entire palace roof because of similar considerations.

Of course, after using transparent materials, the construction difficulty has increased a lot again.

The transportation of these materials alone is a big problem. In order to transport the materials for the palace roof, the Pioneer has been running back and forth a lot in recent times.

Basically, the materials transported from the water ball account for most of the transportation volume of the palace roof.

After all the quality modules are prefabricated, these prefabricated blocks will be transported from the water ball to Mars.

Then these prefabricated blocks will be assembled on Mars. , assembled into a completed dome.

This process seems very troublesome, with several more steps than direct construction

The transportation of these prefabricated blocks alone is a big problem. The transportation of formed modules is many times more difficult than that of raw materials, and it is also much more difficult to produce on the water ball.

In order to transport the prefabricated blocks for the palace roof, the Pioneer has been running back and forth a lot in recent times.

Basically, the materials transported from the water ball account for the vast majority of the transportation volume for the palace roof.

That's why Jiang Cheng is so concerned about this issue, because he is afraid that the prefabricated blocks cannot be transported to Mars on time.

Although this construction technology is difficult to transport and manufacture in advance, it is not without advantages.

This technology can show its advantages during construction, and it is much more convenient than the general method.

Since all the modules transported here are prefabricated roof modules, Jiang Cheng and his team only need to assemble them.

Just pay attention to the serial number of the module during assembly. The shape of each module is different. If the installation place is not right, it will be very troublesome.

This roof construction method reduces the difficulty of construction.

Otherwise, it is simply impossible to build such a large roof on Mars.

Such a huge roof is difficult to build on a water ball, let alone in such a harsh environment on Mars.

Fortunately, Jiang Cheng does not have to worry about these difficulties now, he just needs to arrange the assembly work.

Anyway, he has already numbered all the modules in advance, and the astronauts only need to assemble the dome according to the numbers.

Although the entire roof project is very large, there are robots to help assemble it, so this work can still be completed.

As long as Jiang Cheng gives proper instructions in the future, a transparent giant palace roof will appear on Mars.

And after the construction of the dome is completed, the subsequent construction will become much simpler.

With the dome protecting all astronauts, they don't have to worry about the external environment when they are working, they just need to concentrate on their work.

When the Pathfinder arrived on Mars with the last batch of modules, the transparent dome was still under construction.
