Sprung Structures Utah facility, pivotal in producing their high performing structures, underwent a major expansion using Shelter-Rite® fabric. This upgrade showcases the facility's ability to meet the growing demand for rapid, cost-effective solutions while highlighting advanced design features.
When a company in the Northwest U.S. decided to build a new headquarters, it became clear to them that a fabric structure would take less construction time than traditional brick and mortar. Eleven months after construction started, the large fabric structure was move-in ready and turning heads for its unique design.
The overall design of the facility incorporates sharp differences within the same building envelope.
Based on ODOT requirements, Legacy selected a PVC Architectural Fabric manufactured by Seaman Corporation to complete the structure.
Located in an extremely heavy snow area, the slippery non-stick Kynar surface ensures that the snow will continuously slide off the roof of the structure.
At night, Shelter-Rite's dual membranes' translucency adds impact to the structure, which actually glows attractively like a lampshade.
Shelter-Rite was an attractive choice because of its proven resistance to high levels of airborne pollutants.
The structure is set up annually for the Bakersfield Business Conference which attracts over nine thousand attendees.
