Abstract：The aluminium and titanium are used as mesh shell construction of ellipsoid glass building with major axis length of 66.8 m, minor axis length of 57.0 m, above ground 34.3 m, under ground 7.25 m. The weight of glass as building covering outside is 400 t. The aluminium alloy H beam, aluminium round gusset and stainless steel lock bolts are used for construction to form single layer aluminium mesh shell system. This engineering structure stressing is complicated. The requirements for component fabrication are very strict with bigger difficulty during construction and installation. This is a first large aluminium structure ellipsoid engineering in China. The plan selection, structure design, material selection and ellipsoid engineering construction and installation for this building were presented in the paper.
