Text description provided by the architects. SAIC - GM Pavilion (abbreviated GM Pavilion) is one of the enterprise Pavilions during Shanghai World Expo 2010 Shanghai, Providing high-tech means to shows people the future vision for the urban mobility systems. The concept of GM Pavilion was inspired by the shape of auto parts with a spiral-shaped curve symbolizing the bright future of the automotive industry. Aluminum is the most common material in the automobile manufacturing and more than 4,000 irregular pieces of aluminum sheets which were positioned by BIM and 3D laser scanning technology during construction process composed the cured surface. SAIC-GM Pavilion was originally built as a temporary building, so some components such as the steel beams and LED screens can be technically recycled . Instead of using an all welded structure, a "bolt" plus "spot welding" technology was applied to ensure the comprehensive utilization of the recyclable building materials.
