Tensile Structure

THIRU STEEL & STRUCTURALS Tensile structures are fabricated as permanent or temporary canopy structures for commercial, residential, Architectural industrial construction and landscape artwork. This unique fabric roof cover strives for a light and airy look by minimizing the amount of framing and utilizing the strength of the fabric to help support the stability and equilibrium of the structure.

THIRU STEEL & STRUCTURALS works along with their clients throughout the entire process from design, sail fabrication and installation as well as providing post-sale services such as repairs, cleaning and maintenance.

SUPERIORITY OF TENSILE STRUCTURE

Cover great surfaces without support columns.
Design spaces that are bathed in light.
Realise completely new construction shapes with good aesthetic view.
Create a memorable view and design
Good UV and weather resistance.
The tensile fabric are flame retardants and has fungicidal protection.
PVDF Lacquer coating protects fabric against any environmental influences.
Construct efficiently with only as few resources with quick installation process

FABRIC MATERIAL

The base fabric inside is PVC fabric which is providing most of the strength and mechanical properties. PVC is keeping together the fabric by warp and weft bindings, protecting it and adding to the mechanical properties. Apart from the basic fabric these are protected by the coatings and from UV rays, pollutions, humidity, chemical substances, etc.

MAJOR FABRIC COATINGS

Acrylic coating (5 – 7 Years warranty)
Single side PVDF lacquered coating – Only in Top side (10 Years warranty)
Both sides PVDF lacquered coating (15 Years warranty)

TYPES OF FABRIC GSM (Thickness, Strength, Resistance)

PATTERNING AND WELDING

Membranes are fabricated in made-up in the plant they are cut from a flat piece from a fabric roll with CNC cutting machine with automated technology of Australian make AERONAUT and are welded with high frequency welding machine of European make FIAB Radio frequency travel welding capacity into the pre-calculated, three-dimensional shape. This includes all details needed to mount and pre-stretch the membrane.

IDEAL APPLICATIONS FOR MEMBRANE ARCHITECTURE

Car Parking Shades
Terrace covering structures
Entrance Tensile Structures
Tensile Canopies
Restaurants Cones
Auditorium Tensile Structures
Walkway Covering Structures
Beach Tensile Umbrella
Tensile Fabric Architectures
Swimming Pool Enclosures
Atrium Structures

Shade cloth

Tensile Shade cloths has come with cover factor (UV block and give shades) became increasingly important as the applications for people protection such as at kindergartens, schools and playgrounds, started to grow. Shade structures are now used for any application that requires shade and/or wind protection.
