As a venue for the WTA in Zhuhai, Hengqin International Tennis Center is also building a "world-class professional tennis court". Recently, the reporter interviewed the stadium builder, Shanghai Huawei Stadium Engineering Co., Ltd. Executive Director Liu Yunzhi, in-depth understanding of the stadium construction process.Liu Yunzhi said that Hengqin Tennis Center alone is the surface layer
coated
the amount of nearly 90 tons, each coating raw material ratio is strictly controlled, so that the stadium's shock-absorbing performance, coefficient of friction and other aspects are up to the highest international standards, "We are building the best stadium in the world, Zhuhai should be proud of it!"Talk about the process of coating exclusive customization of at least 10 coatings Recently, reporters visited Hengqin International Tennis Center to see that the first phase of the construction of the project has come to an end, the center of the stadium lighting facilities are basically set up, the audience seats have also been installed. The centre court was covered in black paint, and at a glance there was a slight luster on the flat pitch."The construction of the site is very important, the ground is uneven, the friction is not big, the athletes most of all." Liu Yunzhi said that the quality of tennis courts depends to a large extent on the quality of basic works. Based on the characteristics of surface coatings and taking into account the service life of the venue, the International Tennis Association recommends that the surface coating of hard tennis courts should be laid on asphalt. The construction of Hengqin Tennis Center is a more complicated process.Because the Hengqin landscape is mostly beach painting, in order to prevent the site subside, the construction team first made a layer of concrete slabs "bottoming". If the concrete is coated directly, the field geologically will be too hard, so acrylic and asphalt mixed and then layered with a bonding layer, that is, the reporter saw the black coating during the visit.Next, the construction team will apply 3 coarse elastic layer and 2 fine elastic layer on the bonding layer in turn, increase the shock-absorbing performance of the site, and then apply 2 texture layers to enhance the friction coefficient of the pitch to control the speed of the ball. Finally, the stadium will have to be coated with two more layers of color, so that it is a great success.According to reports, the surface of the court is a special coating called "DecoTurf" tennis court, this coating layer is used in the U.S. Open, Shanghai ATP Heine force Open, the 2004 Athens Olympic Games, the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games and other major tennis venues.It is understood that the Hengqin Tennis Center court used a total of nearly 90 tons of paint, more than 360 barrels filled with five containers. These coatings are specially designed for Zhuhai, all of which are shipped from the United States to Shanghai and then transferred from Shanghai to Zhuhai. "We have the determination and confidence to create a unique high-level venue in Zhuhai." Liu Yunzhi said.Talk about design humanization let people "remember Hengqin remember Zhuhai" in the large central venue, equipped with floor-to-ceiling glass windows of the box space, blue and gray seats fresh and chic. Late summer sun penetrates the air-breathing layer above the audience, making the pitch transparent and bright. "Tennis courts are becoming more and more human now." Liu Yunzhi said with a little emotion.In her opinion, tennis should be held like a festival. The venue can watch the event, outside the venue can rest, entertainment. "The majority of young people who used to watch tennis are now parents with their children and their families. Some people do not want to see the ball, but with their families to come and walk, lively, the festive atmosphere is so brought up. Liu Yunzhi said.In the design and construction of Hengqin Tennis Center, "humanization" is one of its highlights. For example, the huge platform in front of the centre court, like tentacles, connects parts of the entire tennis centre. On this platform, people can overlook the entire tennis center's arena and training ground, and you can clearly see the position of each building. During the WTA event in Zhuhai, spectators can buy a cup of coffee, sit on benches on both sides and relax and chat, or reminisc about the highlights of a game on the platform's big screen."The development of tennis courts is a process of improving the quality of service so that the venues are more human and Hengqin's venues do a good job in these areas." Liu Yunzhi listed some notable details. For example, there is a lot of traffic on the pitch during the game, but a lot of people are not familiar with the stadium, so there are a lot of places to study and optimize the entrance channels for athletes, guests and spectators. For example, the viewing box can be equipped with television to enhance fine dining, while for the general audience should provide cost-effective and hygienic catering.During the WTA in Zhuhai, many international tennis superstars will stage a peak showdown in Zhuhai, and it is equally important to do a good job of service to athletes. Liu Yunzhi believes that the Hengqin Tennis Center should reflect the importance of athletes in detail, so that they can remember Hengqin, remember Zhuhai. "Like the Shanghai Masters, there are special lounges for high-level athletes, with athletes' names on doors and carpets. It makes them feel 'there's my exclusive area here' and they're willing to keep playing here. Talk about looking forward to Zhuhai can build a unique tennis culture although it is more than a few years old, but Liu Yunzhi is full of energy, as long as stay at home in Shanghai, she will be every morning about a class of "old friends" to play tennis together. From playing tennis at the age of 16, to coaching the Shanghai Youth Team, to leading the team in charge of the construction of many well-known stadiums at the age of 73, Liu Yunzhi has a special complex for tennis.In her opinion, Zhuhai has high air quality and good climatic conditions, which is very suitable for the development of tennis. The holding of Zhuhai WTA provides a good opportunity for the promotion of tennis culture in Zhuhai. "Relying on the WTA, Zhuhai has built a Hengqin Tennis Center, relying on a strong tournament brand and star effect, the eyes of the world will be focused on Zhuhai."Liu Yunzhi believes that in addition to the event itself, Zhuhai Tennis Association can also play an important role in different groups, different industries, different areas to carry out a variety of tennis activities or tennis tournaments, but also can lead the organization of star performances, invited some internationally famous tennis stars to Zhuhai, to drive more people to learn tennis. "This will increase the demand for tennis teaching, and the second is to promote the consumption of tennis supplies, a simple tennis industry chain will be formed." Liu Yunzhi said.At the same time, Zhuhai can also develop youth tennis education. According to her, at present, the domestic youth tennis education is relatively backward. Take the United States as an example, in order to train talent, from junior high school began to hold all kinds of tennis tournaments, high school tennis education has been very mature, to the university more specially set up for tennis talent scholarships. "Zhuhai can learn from this talent training model to explore, innovate, build their own tennis culture."　　Southern Daily reporter Lin Qunxian trainee reporter Cui Sen related Hengqin Tennis Center 27 ushered in the debut of 36 caddies will use the ITF "preparation" WTA in Zhuhai WTA Super Elite Tournament before the start of the "2015 ITF International Women's Tennis Tour Zhuhai Station" ("Zhuhai ITF Tour") will be the first to start from the 27th of this month to October 4th.
