The structure is set up annually for the Bakersfield Business Conference which attracts over nine thousand attendees.
In addition to helping hold down the actual cost of constructing the building, the white translucent fabric provides major energy savings.
Designed for fast, efficient erection, the lightweight canopies are both durable and nearly maintenance-free.
During the day, the fabric allows soft lighting to be transmitted into the building, primarily a basketball facility that will seat some 7,000 fans.
This design provides for an attractive integration between the membrane and the other materials, including steel work, glass blocks and precast walls.
The translucent, hard-wearing fabric canopies allow a comfortable amount of soft light through to the walkways and into the airport terminal.
The strength of the Shelter Rite structures was put to the test in 2012, when they withstood all of the fury of Hurricane Sandy.
For the St. Paul project, Yeadon selected Seaman's Shelter-Rite® 8028 high tensile, flame resistant PVC coated polyester fabric because of its excellent strength.
Green Valley Athletic Club set out to create an air supported structure using Shelter-Rite® architectural fabric by Seaman Corporation
