National Exhibition and Convention Center(shanghai) is a national exhibition center co-built by the Ministry of Commerce of China and the Shanghai Municipal Government. Invested and operated by the Shanghai Exhibition Co., Ltd., the China Expo Complex, based in the booming Yangtze River Delta region, aims to serve China and the world with its cutting-edge design and multiple facilities. Its rich services will help drive China’s economic restructuring, fuel the transformation of economic growth patterns, and contribute to the fast and healthy development of the Chinese economy and society.
NECC will be the largest single block building and exhibition complex in the world with a total construction area of 1.47 million square meters, among which 1.27 million square meters are above ground. It is only 1.5 km (straight-line distance) away from the Hongqiao Transportation Hub, and is connected with Hongqiao Airport and Hongqiao Railway Station via the city’s Metro Line 2. Furthermore, it is only one or two hours’ drive from the major cities in the Yangtze River Delta thanks to the convenient highway networks around.
Facilities at the NECC include exhibition halls, the commercial center, the office buildings, and a hotel. These four facilities are linked together by an 8-meter-high elevated pedestrian walkway.
This large complex offers 500,000 square meters of exhibition space, including 400,000 sq m of indoor exhibition space and 100,000 sq m of outdoor display areas. The indoor exhibition space include 13 large exhibition halls (28,800 sq m each), and 3 small halls (10,000 sq m each). All the exhibition halls are directly accessible by freight carriers.
There are four large and one small exhibition halls on the first floor of the North building, and these halls, equipped with ample power supply, all feature a ground load capacity of 5 tons/ m2. One of the large halls has a double-decker structure, the other four halls all offer a single-floor and column-free space with an interior net height of 32 meters. They are particularly suitable for exhibitions of heavy industrial products. The ground floor of the South Building houses four large double-decker halls, each with a ground load capacity 3.5 tons/ m2, a 27 * 36 m column-grid, and 11 meters of net height. The second floor has five large halls and two small ones, each with a ground load capacity of 1.5 tons/ m2, and a net height of 16 meters (and 36 * 54 m column-grid for the big halls).
