According to the framework function and environmental requirements of glass greenhouse, the plan and profile of greenhouse should be built according to the functional needs. According to the function, greenhouse is divided into production greenhouse, scientific research experimental greenhouse and viewing and exhibition greenhouse. The design of plan and profile of various greenhouses are different.

The framework of glass greenhouse requires that during the use of the greenhouse, the structure will bear various loads, such as wind load, snow load, crop load, equipment load, etc. during normal use, the structure should be ground under these loads, that is, the structure of the greenhouse should be able to bear various possible loads without deformation and damage affecting the use.

The durability of glass greenhouse framework requires that under the condition of normal use and maintenance, the main structure, enclosure structure, enclosure components and various equipment of the greenhouse should have the specified durability.

The internal space of glass greenhouse framework requires that the greenhouse is the place for plant growth and production management activities. In addition to plant cultivation space, it is also required to provide sufficient space for the placement and normal operation of various production equipment, and appropriate space shall be reserved for operation managers.

The energy-saving requirements of glass greenhouse skeleton building, the architectural design structure of greenhouse greenhouse, that is, the structure of greenhouse foundation, wall, roof, side window, skylight, gutter and other parts, as well as the connection mode between various parts, shall not only meet their respective use functions, but also meet the requirements of energy conservation.
