In-Depth Case Studies — Facade Engineering Files

Engineers talk about what actually happened — the decisions, the problems and the fixes. Deep-dive files on projects that carry the Hanart engineering signature.

The Files

Case Studies in Focus

Deep-dive engineering write-ups are produced in rotation; each file covers scope, engineering rationale and delivery lessons.

Shanghai Synchrotron facility facade
Featured File

Shanghai Synchrotron Facility

The scientific research facility facade earning both a Luban Prize and National Classic Project recognition — engineering for precision environments, vibration-sensitive operations and demanding tolerance control.

Energy File

BIPV Solar Facade Case Library

Verified BIPV project records: Suzhou’s 740 MWh/yr double-skin facade and Nanjing’s 285 kWp semi-transparent CdTe glazing — with LEED credits, payback and monitored output.

Editorial Policy

Why We Write These Files

Case studies on this site follow one rule: engineers describe what happened, without promotional filler. Each file states the design challenge, the engineering response, the fabrication and delivery approach, and the measurable outcome — and it links to the project's factual reference record. Files are refreshed quarterly as new projects close out.

Beyond the flagship files above, more deep-dives are queued for release — including large-span roofing, energy-efficient facades and renovation packages. Subscribe in the resources library to be notified when a new file is published.

FAQ

Questions we hear most often, answered

Files are refreshed quarterly as new projects close out, so updates reflect completed work rather than announcements.

Write to us through the RFI form; if the project is closed out we can often share the reference record directly.

Yes. Each file links to the project's factual reference record, and claims that apply only under specific conditions are stated on the page.
