The real countdown has begun! With less than a week to go, the T3 terminal project has entered the final sprint, and Yexing’s “crown” awning project is also reaching its final stage.
Baiyun T3: A New Benchmark for the Aviation Hub in the Greater Bay Area
Baiyun International Airport is about to enter the era of “three terminals and five runways,” with an annual passenger handling capacity exceeding 120 million. The cargo and mail throughput will reach 3.8 million tons, and the terminal’s ultimate passenger handling capacity will reach 140 million, with a cargo and mail handling capacity of 6 million tons. The scale of passenger and cargo handling will be at the forefront globally. Inside the terminal, rail transit systems such as the Suiwan Shenzhen Intercity Railway and the Guanghe High – speed Railway are seamlessly connected, constructing a three – dimensional transportation network that provides passengers with efficient and convenient travel experiences. At the same time, the carefully planned commercial spaces integrate shopping, leisure, and cultural experiences, making every journey full of surprises.

Yexing’s Craftsmanship: Sculpting the Exquisite Excellence of 17,000 Square Meters of Membrane Structure
In the construction of the “petal” awning of Baiyun Airport’s T3 terminal, the Yexing team has fully demonstrated its professional strength. Using imported Huesker PTFE membrane materials, they have meticulously created a membrane structure project with a total area of approximately 17,000 square meters.
In this project, the largest single membrane unit area reaches 440 square meters, and the smallest unit is nearly 200 square meters. Facing the construction of such large – area membrane materials, the Yexing team uses BIM technology for precise modeling. Every link, from the design drawings to the actual installation, has been repeatedly calculated and verified to ensure that the curvature and tension of the membrane materials fit perfectly with the overall structure. At the construction site, the builders work day and night. The modular installation process keeps the construction tense and orderly. The laying of each piece of membrane material and every tensioning operation reflects the team’s pursuit of quality.

Craftsmanship Creates Masterpieces: Witnessing the Glorious Birth of the Aviation Hub
As the completion date approaches, the “petal” awning created by the Yexing team is about to become the most dazzling feature of Baiyun Airport’s T3 terminal. These “petals” constructed from imported Huesker PTFE membrane materials shine brightly in the sun, complementing the overall design of the terminal. They not only showcase the technological beauty of modern architecture but also embody the tenacity and enthusiasm of the Kapok flower in Lingnan culture.
The completion of this modern aviation hub is not only an important achievement in the infrastructure construction of the Greater Bay Area but also a powerful testament to China’s construction capabilities. The Yexing team, with their professionalism and craftsmanship, has added a significant touch to Baiyun Airport’s T3 terminal! It will be unveiled soon. Are you looking forward to it?
