Standard size spans (widths) vary from 16m up to 64m No heat build-up common to artificially lighted structures Designed, engineered & fabricated to meet wind-load requirements of 144km/h (40m/s) as a minimum standard Various Custom design options are available, from economic open-ended gables to fully enclosed gable ends with ventilation grids, extractor fans, roll-up doors, windows, lighting and HVAC systems Side wall heights (excluding the apex height) of 3m - 9m are standard Modular portal bay spacing of 3m, therefore no limit to structure length 16m Span can be installed directly onto compacted soil & secured with ground anchors, therefore no need for concrete foundations or other costly civils |
