Please describe the project specifications

Custom Free Standing Dome style fabric canopy measuring 28’ 3” wide x 6’ high x 14 ½’ projection. Awntex fabric covers the top and rear of 6 steel galvanized posts mounted onto existing concrete.

The senior living facility requested a unique shade structure that would provide weather protection for their outdoor entertainment and social events


What is unique or complex about the project?

The dome style shape and design are unique aspects of this shade structure. To achieve the arc radius shape, we had to roll form the steel substructure.

The client loves the design and has planned several outdoor entertainment shows for the residents to enjoy. They even installed lights and speakers to enhance the presentation of their events.
