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.
