What Material Should your Waterproof Tent Fabric Be?

Many people choose to rent a tent made with waterproof tent fabric for a variety of reasons. And, it is not surprising – tents are versatile; but which material is best for these tent rentals?

These structures provide the best open space for parties and once-in-a-lifetime wedding celebrations. But, they can also find themselves incredibly useful in more rugged areas, such as on a construction site or as a storage shelter on vast, agricultural land. And, of course, tents have always been found on the forefront of disaster relief efforts.

No matter what you choose to use your tent for, it’s safe to say that the reasoning for renting one is to stay dry. Whether referring to yourself, your guests, or the physical items stored underneath the tent, having protection by way of waterproof fabric is a definite must-have.

So, when you are ready to rent your tent, what material can provide the best protection for your needs? Let’s take a deeper look at the structure and design of these tents, shall we?

 

The Design and Framework of Your Waterproof Tent

If you are new to the tent rental market or you just haven’t rented one in quite some time, you may be surprised to learn about today’s premiere tent: the clearspan tent.

Clearspan tents are one of the most popular tents rented for all sorts of reasons, including the situations listed above. They provide all the perks of a tent and are designed to be very versatile.

See, these tents do not utilize guy-lines – the typical ropes, straps, or cables that are used to supply tension to a pole-supported tent structure and keep it from collapsing or blowing away.

This means that you will not require the extra space for staking the tent. And, it means that you will have open space surrounding the tent – without the worry of any hazards.

Don’t forget that – because these tents don’t require guy lines and staking – you won’t need special grounding for securing the tent. This means you can install it on:

  • Concrete
  • Asphalt
  • Sand
  • Grass
  • Mulch, and more

The aluminum and steel framework of a clearspan tent provides a sturdy base to hold the fabric. After it’s pulled tightly, you’ll get the structure you need with a classy look.

Speaking of fabric, you have a few options when it comes to designing the perfect clearspan tent for your needs.

 

Two Types of Waterproof Tent Fabric

When it comes to anything in life, having options always feels good. It is no different when it comes to renting a tent.

Therefore, you have two choices for the fabric that will be installed over the metal framework. Will you prefer laminated vinyl or laminated fabric?

We are going to look a bit closer at both options so you will be able to choose the one that works best for your situation and needs.

 

Option #1: Laminated Vinyl

Laminated vinyl may be your choice if you are looking for a tried and true classic choice for fabric on your clearspan tent. This material has been on the market for over 40 years now – and has more than proven its capability.

Here is how a laminated vinyl tent covering is designed for the job:

  • A layer of solid vinyl on both the top and bottom protect an inner layer of mesh material.
  • The mesh is generally made from polyester or nylon.
  • Heat and pressure are then used to form these three layers into one single, sturdy piece.

 

Option #2: Laminated Fabric

Laminated fabric may not have the lost history found with vinyl, but don’t be fooled into thinking it is not a good choice.

In fact, the laminated fabric has been the most trendy choice for the last 15 years or so. This fabric is designed like vinyl but uses a different process. There’s mesh found in the center to give it strength, but it’s covered top to bottom with liquid vinyl.

Once dry, it hardens into a very pliable material – much like fabric.

Laminated fabric is very strong.

 

 

Should You Choose Blackout or Transparent Tents?

Choosing whether you want laminated fabric or laminated vinyl are not your only choices.

Once you make the decision, you must then consider whether you want your fabric to be blackout or transparent.

Deciding on the right option for you will come down to what you intend to do with the tent:

  • Are you looking to create indoor-appeal?
  • Do you want to block out all the elements including the sun?
  • Are you hoping to use the outdoors as a backdrop to your event, but still want protection from rain or other similar types of weather?

Blackout fabric is the most common type that you will see used in tent rentals. This is likely due to the fact that it blocks 100% of the sun’s rays and keeps the space underneath the tent much cooler.

That doesn’t mean you should ignore all that transparent fabric can provide. It can give you light throughout the day and it’ll make the tent not feel like a tent at all.

However, it is nearly impossible to control the temperature inside. In other words, if the sun is shining through the clear tent, you are going to feel it.

 

How is Fabric Waterproof?

Ok, let’s be honest. You may be scratching your head wondering just how is it possible to have waterproof tent fabric.

Doesn’t fabric have tiny holes? Can’t the tent leak if it is being pieced together?

Believe it or not, through their design, both of these materials are waterproof, but the fabric must be sealed together into a single piece to fit the tent.

This is done by a welder using high-frequency radio waves to rearrange the molecules and form multiple pieces of material into one single piece that is as strong or stronger than a single piece of material.

Well, there you have it – more than you ever thought you needed to know about renting a waterproof tent. Just remember, though, that the more knowledge you have, the better chance you have to rent the perfect tent for your needs.

Disaster Relief

Protect Yourself From Disaster With Relief Tents

Disaster can strike at any moment. And, in order to be prepared, you have to take proactive steps to have everything you need when and where you need it, including relief tents.

No matter what the weather is or the situation, there are always rescue crew and first responders waiting on standby. This means that non-profit organizations such as the Red Cross, police and fire departments near and far, as well as branches of the military,  are all ready to make a move.

And, while they may have the gear they think they will need put together and kept in order, there is one thing that can make the entire process much more organized and simplified: temporary shelter relief tents.

These tents are so versatile, allowing them to be used nearly everywhere and for so many different reasons.

 

1. Extreme Temperatures, Both Hot and Cold

Sadly, extreme temperatures can still significantly impact a large chunk of our population. After all, not everyone has a warm bed inside a warm home to go to each night. And, when the temperatures rise to unbearable temps, a healthily working air conditioner is more of a privilege than a right.

So, here’s what can be done. Thanks to the meteorologists out there, we have a pretty good idea when rough weather is approaching. Constructing temporary shelter tents in advance can provide shelter for those who need it.

These tents can come with HVAC systems (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning). Those staying in the tents can reap the benefits of the cooling and heating system, depending on the situation.

This option works well for those in areas where permanent shelters either don’t exist or cannot handle the capacity.

 

2. Hurricanes

You’ve got to thank those meteorologists again for their hurricane predictions. While they may not be right on the mark all the time, they are able to give us a heads up when a hurricane has formed so that we can prepare.

Some people will evacuate. Others will not. And, once the storm is over, first responders and disaster relief crews are waiting to step in.

Hurricanes can bring devastation, thanks to wind and water. Temporary hurricane tents can provide many services for those trying to help out with the aftermath.

  • Makeshift medic locations.
  • Storage of donated goods.
  • Temporary shelter for those who have lost their homes.
  • Destination offices or headquarters for organizations such as the Red Cross or FEMA.

You never know what you will encounter after a hurricane makes its way through. But, having a versatile temporary tent shelter means you have the ability to step in and start helping no matter the need.

 

 

3. Rain and Flooding

Some areas of the United States wait and wait for Mother Nature to send some rain. Other areas just wish she’d stop! The regions that are prone to flooding know that it can come at any time. And, you are not always prepared.

Heavy rains and flooding can create travel difficulties for both residents and first responders. As the waters rise the danger also rises, making it difficult to get to those that are left in the floodwaters. Washed out roads, downed trees, and powerlines, as well as flooding homes can create the perfect disaster scenario.

To reach these individuals, special steps have to be taken. And, to get them the help they need, close accommodations are a must.

But, it is not always that easy.

Setting up stations for aid that are close enough to the disaster area to make a difference is the best chance for offering relief. This is where the use of temporary shelter tents can help.

 

4. Tornados

Tornados, unfortunately, don’t come with the predictions and time to prepare as hurricanes do. They can come fast and destroy everything in their path even faster. There is little, if any, time to prepare for a tornado.

This means that those involved must be ready to step in and set up at a moment’s notice.  Those who utilize temporary relief tents can easily set up and get moving without worry. The construction of these tents is simple and efficient. So when your tent is needed, it can be ready.

Areas that deal with tornadic activity know the danger – and know the aftermath. As with hurricanes, these areas need space for medic tents, donation storage, housing, and disaster command centers. A temporary shelter tent can provide that.

 

 

5. Earthquakes

Like most major disasters, earthquakes are also unpredictable. They can shake up your world – literally. In a few seconds, life as you knew it could be forever changed.

Immediately, first responders and workers infiltrate the heaviest damaged areas seeking to offer help and assistance where it is needed.

Using temporary shelter relief tents means that in areas where foundations may be compromised, there is shelter available for those seeking medical attention or other immediate assistance.

 

6. Fires

Large fires don’t impact a lot of areas around the U.S., but they impact a lot of people – especially those in California.

Due to the unpredictability of fires, many areas are evacuated as a precaution. Everyone in the path of the fire becomes displaced. Not everyone is prepared for such a change in routine and circumstance. And, of course, then there are those who lose everything they own – including their home.

Where do these individuals turn?

They will find a way to the temporary shelter tents that will give them the aid they need and provide direction.

 

 

The Need for Relief Tents

Being prepared is usually always one of the main mantras for those who are involved in disaster relief. What may happen, the outcome of a natural disaster and the needs that arise may be set aside as unknowns until it happens.

When it does, having a temporary tent means that there will always be a protected and covered space. Regardless of the need, tents can be for:

  • Medical
  • Storage
  • Housing
  • Dining
  • An-site command center
  • Anything you need

6 Reasons to Rent a Tent for the Masters Tournament

When hosting, preparing, and setting up the Masters Tournament, there are many things you must have ready; one of them being a large tent rental.

The infamous golf tournament – you know, the one that has been donning the best of the best in green jackets since the 1930’s – is getting ready to kick off this year in Augusta, Georgia.

From April 11th through April 14th, golfers and golf fanatics from around the world will be hoping to watch history be made.

Or, make history themselves.

 

Hosting the Masters Tournament

Because the entire tournament is held outdoors, everyone – and everything – is at the mercy of the weather.

Sure, Georgia has some beautiful weather this time of year. But sometimes there is just a need for shelter.

Choosing to rent a clear span fabric structure for the 2019 Masters Tournament can have many benefits; ranging from merchandise and attendee protection, to medic tents.

Here are just 6 of these benefits.

 

1. Protect the Merchandise

Everyone who is able to attend this historic event wants memorabilia to prove it.

What better way to do that than through purchasing some merchandise while there. And the best idea you can have would be to sell it from under a tent rental.

Unfortunately, with so many people and such wide open spaces, leaving your merchandise wide open – without boundaries – can leave you subject to chaos and even theft.

In addition, while the weather is often nice in April, you cannot predict it.

It would be a great loss to have all the merchandise out for purchase – and then have it soaked and potentially ruined due to a passing shower.

With a tent rental, you can be sure to have a designated, protected space to sell merchandise from. And, with the overhead protects (and even the sidewalls if you choose), any inclement weather that may pop up will be a moot point for you.

 

2. Allow Room for the Thousands in Attendance

Thousands of people attend the Masters Tournament every year.

  • For some, it’s a mark on their bucket list.
  • For others it’s out of a love for the sport.
  • Still, others come just to see what all the hype is about.

So, maneuvering these individuals can become quite a task. The result means that many are often standing in line for extended periods of time.

Extended exposure to the sun can be hot and make some feel faint.

In fact, there are serious health concerns that result from the sun’s effects.

By renting tents as “cooling stations,” you are providing those in attendance with an area to cool down and remain in a healthy functioning state.

 

 

3. You Can’t Predict the Weather

As we’ve been talking about above, you cannot predict weather.

According to its website, the city of Augusta has high temperatures of around 79-degrees, low temperatures around 47-degrees, and an average of 4.31 inches of precipitation in April.

In other words, it could be cold, it could be hot, it could be dry, and it may very well rain.

Truth is, you don’t know what the weather will be like when the Masters Tournament is scheduled, but you surely just can switch it.

So, you do the next best thing – prepare for it.

Designating a large tent rental for those in attendance to relax, cool down, warm up, or stay dry will be a great investment – and addition – the event.

 

4. Keep the Security Organized – and the Security Officers Comfortable and Focused

There are many things on the “do not bring” list for the Masters Tournament.

Because of this – and to provide a great sense of safety for everyone involved – there are security checkpoints set up at the entrance.

For example, do not try to enter with any of the following prohibited items:

  • Cell Phones
  • Bags, Backpacks, Purses, Packages larger than 10″W x 10″H x 12″D
  • Beepers/Electronic Devices
  • Cameras (Cameras are allowed ONLY on Practice Rounds days – Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday)
  • Weapons of any kind (regardless of permit)
  • Alcoholic beverages
  • Beverage containers/Coolers
  • Flags / Banners / Signs
  • Folding armchairs/Rigid type chairs or stools. If you bring a chair, make sure it’s a collapsible one without armrests.
  • Ladders / Periscopes / Selfie Sticks
  • Radios / TVs / Tape Recorders
  • Strollers
  • Walkie-talkies

While the security crew is checking everyone who enters the gates, a tent will designate the specific secure checkpoints, providing a clear area for them.

In addition, a tent will help to keep everyone comfortable as they wait in line. And the security officers, too, of course.

 

5. The Food Menu Is Amazing – Keep the Atmosphere Amazing Too

Rumor has it that the food you will find at the Master’s tournament is delicious. And, very affordable.

But having tents to, again, designate a specific space for the food being served can not only be welcomed by the vendor, but also the customer.

Tents can help increase the chance of proper health safety methods for the food, reducing its exposure to things in the air and people walking by.

Besides, who wouldn’t welcome an ice cold drink and a few minutes of shade?

 

 

6. Medics Always Need a Tent

Finally, because of the sport and the number of people, there will be medics on-site.

These medics are going to require a private area to handle anything that comes up throughout the tournament.

Privacy for the staff – and the injured party – is a must.

A tent can provide this space.

In addition, the supplies and so forth used by medics need to be stored – and organized – for access in an emergency.

Using a tent can provide a space that can be treated as a more permanent space, allowing for more efficient medical treatment.

 

Conclusion

The Masters Tournament is so much different from other sports. PGA Golf involves a lot of quiet – and a lot of waiting.

This means the attendees will have time on their hands and will be looking for a nice space to spend it.

Tent rentals can provide a lot of functional use throughout the entire tournament when it comes to safety and health concerns.

This will allow more people to focus on the sport and not any inconvenience around them.

At the end of the day, it is all about the golf, right?

New Year, New Tent: How to Choose the Best Tent Rental For Your Needs

2019 is here, and that means more celebrations, trade shows, and events. Here’s how to choose the best tent rental for your needs this year.

The new year always signals a fresh start or a new beginning. It is a time of resolution, of goal-setting, of do-overs and re-starts. Welcome to your new year. It is time to shed the old and embrace the new.

This rule also applies to tent rentals. Perhaps it is time to get a new one for the new year. After all, your tent has an important job.

 

Choosing the Best Tent Rental 

It doesn’t matter what you use it for, whether it is for personal use or for business.

You likely bought a tent because you needed to protect someone or something from potential inclement weather.

  • Maybe you like the indoor appearance of an outdoor setting.
  • Or, maybe it is the option of an HVAC system that makes the tent so worthwhile to you.

Whatever you use your tent for, keeping it updated and healthy in appearance can ensure that it is meeting your needs – all while being pleasing to the eye.

So, what is new since you last bought your tent? We’ve put together a guide to help you choose the best tent rental for your needs.

 

1. Determine the Use for Your Tent

Before you can take any step further, you need to determine the use for your tent.

If you currently have a tent, then you likely already know what you want to use your tent for.

However, for those who don’t have a tent, you may – or may not – know how beneficial they may be.

Tents serve a great purpose.

  • They can be used for occasions, such as weddings and birthday parties.
  • They can also be used for corporate events and trade shows.
  • These tents work well for so many industries, such as construction, aviation, and agricultural. They can store large machinery and equipment. They can cover important projects and can even house cattle and other livestock.

There is no limit to what you can do with a temporary tent structure.

But, because there are so many choices to make when choosing one, you must know how you intend to use it.

 

 

2. Choosing Between the Types of Tents Available

There are multiple types of tents to choose from, but which is the best tent rental for you?!

The different types of tents include

  • Pole tents
  • Frame tents
  • Marquee tents
  • Carnival tents
  • Other options

The two most common, however, are the pole tents and frame tents. What you need the tent for will determine which tent is the best fit for your needs.

– Pole Tents

Pole tents are perhaps one of the most popular tents as they have been around for years. They are customizable and come in a variety of sizes.

Unfortunately, if you are looking for wide-open space for storage or to maneuver large equipment, you will have to work around the poles.

In addition, depending on where you intend to erect the tent, you will have to make sure you have space for the guy lines and stakes that are required to maintain this tent structure.

– Clearspan Frame Tents

Clearspan tents – frame tents – are perhaps one of the most versatile tents available on the market. They are also very customizable and come in a wide variety of sizes.

Unlike pole tents, clearspan tents have no poles or other obstructions underneath the fabric. Instead, you have a wide-open space that you can use.

In addition, these frame tents can be constructed on all types of ground because there is no need for guy lines or staking.

As you can see, the tent you choose will be solely determined by your need for cover.

 

3. Determining the Space You Need

To find the best tent rental for you, it’s essential to determine the amount of space you will need.

But don’t fret!

Clearspan tents can come in ranges from 10 feet wide to 164 feet wide. They are modular, so they easily increase or decrease in size in 10- or 16-foot increments.

The size of the tent is the size you will have under the fabric. There is no bars, poles, or barriers.

What does that mean for you?

It means that you can schedule that party, plan that corporate expo, or complete those winter construction jobs with ease – and on time.

 

 

4. Choosing Amazing Accessories

Believe it or not, there are many amazing accessories that can come with your temporary tent structure so that it better fits your needs. For example:

  • You can choose flooring that will make the space under your tent feel as though it is indoor. This can include everything from wood and tile floors to carpeting.
  • Side walls work wonders to keep out what you don’t want under your tent, such as unfavorable weather, pesky insects, and other undesirables.
  • An HVAC system can make all the difference for your guests, employees, or whatever you decide to place under the tent. It provides heating, ventilation, and air conditioning. This means you can use your tent any time of the year – despite the temperature outside.
  • Banners, logos, and specific colors are other customizations that can be added to your tent structure.

Let’s not forget how important lighting is to your tent. You can use various lighting techniques or add lighting fixtures that will enhance the benefits of your temporary structure.

 

5. Finding the Right Fabric You Desire

Most tents you see erected are made of white fabric. Did you know that you have options when it comes to the frame covering?

While the white fabric is strong, durable, and reflective of the heat, it also blocks out the outdoor view.

If the reason you chose to have an outdoor event is that you would like the beauty of nature to be incorporated in your event – or to enjoy some natural sunlight (or moonlight) – then you may want to consider choosing clear panels.

That is right, you can have a clearspan frame tent draped with clear panels. This gives you the best of both worlds – you can have all the perks of a tent without blocking out the natural beauty on the outside.

 

Conclusion

It’s a new year and it’s time you invested in a new tent.

Before you waste your resources, look at all the benefits and options available with new tents and get yourself the best tent rental to fit your needs.

Happy new year.

Portable Emergency Shelter Tents: Preparing for Hurricane Season

Hurricane season is upon us. You can prepare for disaster with clearspan portable emergency shelter tents.

It is the most active time of the hurricane season. The warm waters and winds combine their favorable conditions to churn up tropical disturbances one after the next. It doesn’t take long for these disturbances to turn into tropical storms and then, for a few, full-blown hurricanes.

Preparing for hurricanes is essential, and preparations are made easier with the use of portable emergency shelter tents.

When one develops, entire communities, states, and regions are glued to the weather forecasts just trying to see which way the hurricane is going to go. And then, once they get a good idea of the hurricane, it is time to start the preparations.

 

Preparing for hurricanes

There are many supplies you need if facing an impending storm. Depending on your location or housing situation, you may make a decision as to whether you will stay and bunker down or if you will evacuate.

A few important things that go into making such a decision will be:

  • Whether you and those who live in your home are healthy, able-bodied individuals not in need of medical care or equipment.
  • If your home is near the shoreline or in a flood zone.
  • Whether you have boards or shutters to safely secure all windows and glass doors.

Gathering items, such as non-perishable food items, water, a generator and gasoline, battery-operated fans, lights and candles, and a first aid kit is imperative if you are staying for the storm.

You never know when help can reach you or what may happen.

During the storm – and even after – emergency crews may be unable to access your location. You may be out of power and out of cell phone service. Therefore, you will want to prepare for anything that you may face.

 

Preparation behind the scenes

While local citizens are preparing for their personal protection, there is a bigger hurricane preparation behind the scenes.

First responders and disaster relief personnel are working to be ready at a moment’s notice. Storms can wobble, and their tracks can change rather quickly.

These crews need to stay mobile –and that includes all of their relief items, too.

These crews begin collecting the items they will need to assist those affected by the storm. They put together truckloads of water, food, baby needs, medical supplies, clothes, socks, shoes, blankets, insect repellent.

Anything and everything that the community needs after a hurricane.

They also begin assembling portable emergency shelter tents. These disaster relief tents are perfect due to their ability to be erected in any location.

They do not need a specific ground-area. Instead, they work in grass, sand, dirt, asphalt, etc. Because clearspan tents for disasters are free from restrictions, aid workers can get into the heart of the disaster area without worry.

Clearspan structures make portable emergency shelter widely available for many needs.

They provide a wide-open space under the tent, comes with the option for side walls, and can also come in just about any size necessary.

These portable emergency shelter tents are widely used by disaster crews, including those who handle hurricane aftermath.

 

 

Disaster relief and services

Workers who provide disaster relief come straight into communities and provide anything that the community needs.

  • They may feed those in the community by setting up a soup kitchen inside a clearspan tent. With the perfect amount of space, they are able to serve and seat hundreds of people rather quickly. Meals are hard to come by in areas hit hard by hurricanes, so food shelters are incredibly important.
  • Any time there is a natural disaster, there is a need for medical attention. These portable emergency shelter tents can easily be set up as a makeshift hospital or medic station.
  • Hurricane aftermath brings many individuals without power at their jobs, costing them wages. To apply for aid through the government, disaster relief workers often set up temporary stations for people to visit and apply for assistance. Clearspan disaster tents serve a great need as a temporary office.

Disaster relief services come in all types which is why it is so wonderful that clearspan tents are so incredibly versatile.

 

Clearspan tents can be storage for donated goods

When a disaster strikes, it makes the headlines around the world. Immediately, people everywhere – once witnessing the devastation – want to offer their help.

Food and water drives, clothing drives, and other donation attempts begin to occur in great numbers.

While it is absolutely wonderful that there are so many giving people in the world, plans need to be in place to be able to handle the donated goods that follow the devastation.

Thankfully, during hurricane preparation, many disaster relief crews anticipate these donations and find themselves preparing with a few extra portable emergency shelter tents.

By opting for security, such as secured sidewalls on these tents, you end up with a safe place to store donated goods. These items are protected from outdoor elements and are able to be neatly organized, thanks to the tent’s wide-open space feature.

As the donations grow, so can the relief tent.

 

 

Portable emergency shelter tents can act as housing for hurricane victims

Sadly, those affected by devastating hurricanes can often find themselves without a home. It is not uncommon for roof damage or flooding to leave these spaces uninhabitable.

Hotels and motels are usually the first options for housing after a storm. However, with limited space available, these rooms book up quickly, leaving some without a place to turn.

Disaster relief workers come together and offer portable emergency shelter tents as a means of temporary housing.

Whether large tents used in a shelter-type setting or smaller tents used for single- and multi-family type settings, clearspan tents can provide the temporary protection they are seeking.

These tents come in all sizes and can have sidewall protection and flooring that will make the space feel a little more like a home, rather than just a tent.

 

Conclusion

Hurricanes are no laughing matter. And being prepared is important.

Looking out for yourself and those in your community by gathering needed supplies and heeding advice from professionals can reduce the pressure on the relief workers who are preparing behind the scenes.

But, no matter what you encounter, rest assured that your relief workers are standing by with your clearspan tent ready to go.

Clear Span Tent Events: What to Use Them For

Clear span tent events are perfect for large outdoor gatherings. Because of the way these tents are structured, they do not have interior support columns. Since there are no interior support columns, clear span tents are able to provide a large open space for guests to enjoy. Tents that have support columns can block the view for guests, especially if you are having an event that requires a stage for speakers or performers.

The Most Popular Uses for Clear Span Structures

Any time you need to host a large event with a lot of people, one of the first things you need to do is find a venue. Since it can be difficult to rent a venue big enough for a huge crowd, erecting a temporary structure, such as a large clear span tent, pavilions, or canopy, is often an excellent choice. This allows you to customize your space needs, and your guests can enjoy being outdoors yet still having weather protection. The possibilities are endless, but here are a few of the most common uses for clear span structures.

Trade Shows

Trade shows are events where everyone from an industry can meet for exhibits and demonstrations of their latest innovations and products. This type of event typically involves many different businesses and vendors setting up their own individual table or display. Interested customers and business rivals then wander around the area checking everything out. Clear span structures are the ideal way to get the perfect amount of space needed at a trade show. Planners can take into account how many people are involved. From there, they craft the perfect layout with the ideal amount of space.

Weddings

The huge popularity of outdoor weddings in the past few years has lead to a burgeoning interest in temporary structures. Many bride and grooms want to have a picturesque ceremony in an isolated natural area. However, weddings are planned so far in advance that it is impossible to know what the weather will be like. Choosing a clear span tent with removable sides is the ideal solution to this problem. If the weather is perfect, guests can enjoy the view from all sides of the tent during the reception. If the weather is bad, the entire wedding ceremony and reception can be in the tent without causing guests to get wet. Since some temporary structures even come with air conditioning and lighting, you can avoid any bad weather in the tent.

Sports Events

Think of attending your favorite sporting events – it’s likely outside. However, not every team has enough popularity to build a massive stadium for their watcher’s needs. Smaller events like swimming competitions or tennis matches may host the entire event within clear span structures. Even massive sporting events always use a few temporary structures. Tents at sporting events can be used for vendors selling food and keepsakes. Tents can also provide a VIP area for special guests. Even after the game is over, a temporary structure can provide a location for a party for the participants later in the evening.

Concerts

Temporary structures can benefit a variety of different types of musical shows. Smaller concerts often need a structure that can hold a lot of people while still being far enough away from general homes and businesses to avoid sound limitation laws. Clear span structures allow these venues to ensure that only those with tickets can access the concert. It also provides some weather protection. At the huge, lengthy music festivals that are so popular right now, temporary structures have many purposes. They can provide shelter, create a cafeteria area, or set up a staging area for a band to get ready. Many of these big festivals also use temporary structures to host alternative acts while the headliners are playing on the main stage.

Clear Span Tents are Durable Tents

You might think that clear span tents are not sturdy enough for important events such as weddings, family reunions or birthday parties, but these structures are very durable tents. It is possible to use a clear span tent as a temporary or permanent structure when you need an open space that does not have poles. A business that frequently uses a clear span tent is a gardening center that is placed in the parking lot of a shopping mall. You may have noticed these structures in the spring as retailers sell flower and vegetable plants to the public for only a few months.

Quick and Inexpensive to Build Structures

An additional place that clear span tents are used is at a fairground during the summer to give people a place to display crafts, animals or produce. durable tents are fast and simple to build, and you will find that the materials and labor for building one of these structures is affordable. You do not need to settle for flimsy plastic sides on a clear span tent because builders can add plastic, metal or glass walls for extra strength. You can also opt for a 100 percent clear or opaque rooftop that suits your needs.

Durable Tents Provide Protection

Builders can install small to large clear span tents at residential or commercial properties. Clear span tents offer an assortment of features, including:
• Durable structures for long-term installation
• Safe entrances and exits to maintain airflow
• As few stakes as possible to avoid soil damage

The aluminum frames are covered with a customer’s choice of fabric, vinyl or metal, and customers can request a hybrid of different materials that meet their specifications. A clear span tent provides a space for musical concerts, lectures or extra storage for products. When you are planning your next outdoor activity, have a professional company install a clear span tent to ensure guests are protected from excess sunlight, rain or wind.

Weatherproofing Tent For Your Outdoor Event

Whether you are planning a wedding, a festival or a sporting event, last minute changes are inevitable. The power may go out hours before your scheduled start time or your caterer may cancel last minute. Event planning of any kind requires flexibility, understanding and immense amounts of creativity. Especially if you have turned event planning into a career, you will continue to be amazed at the vast diversity of last minute setbacks. Nothing can setback your event like the weather. Because of this, it’s important to learn about a weatherproofing tent for your event.

The mark of a true professional is the ability to create alternate plans ahead of time and to problem solve in a pinch. Planning for inclement weather should always be one of the first steps you take, allowing you to free up your mind and schedule for addressing less predictable impediments.

Setting Up an Alternate Shelter

Whether you are planning on sheltering from possible rain, heavy winds or sweltering heat, shelters such as clear span tents offer protection from the elements. Tent technology has moved far from the days of rod supported circus tents.

Clear span tents have no internal support structures, which means unobstructed site lines perfect for events such as concerts and festivals. They are also crafted to meet rigorous national and international building standards, and can withstand winds up to 90 miles an hour.

These tents are well suited for any type of event you plan on holding. Better yet, this weatherproofing tent for your event keeps you and your guests safe and secure during any weather.

Customizing Your Event Space

Clear span tents can be tailored to fit your needs. With the proper crew, they can easily be erected in a day, and if needed can stay in place for years. These structures have a remarkable adaptability, and can be dressed up or down.

If you are hosting a wedding, accessories such as glass doors, glass walls, and billowing ceiling covers can transform it into a space worthy of any elegant black tie event. The same tent may be unrecognizable, but just as practical when erected for a county fair. Because of the many ways to customize such tents, they are perfect for any type of event.

A clear span tent can range in size anywhere from 3 meters to 50 meters wide, and as they are modular, can be adapted and combined to fit any size or shape needs.

Seeing Clearly: Why Transparent Tents are the Future

Why choose a clear span tent? These transparent do not obstruct the view, so they are excellent for outdoor events such as parties, weddings and business or organizational gatherings. They can form a protected pavilion with a great view for campers. Truly, there are almost as many uses for clear tents as there are individuals. Transparent enclosures are popular, and the demand for them is growing. See-through transparent tents are the future because they raise the bar for both the performance and appearance of portable structures. Here are some reasons why people demand their clear benefits.

They are Strong and Sturdy

Today’s transparent enclosures, especially those supported by metal beams and attached to the ground with steel spikes, are designed to withstand rain, wind and all types of inclement weather for months on end. In fact, they can stay on the same spot for years with hardly any maintenance required.

Transparent Tents are Highly Adaptable and Useful

Transparent structures are prized equally by brides and military companies, by special event organizers and party planners. Clear enclosures also are temporary warehouses, protection for construction workers on site and to help disaster relief organizations. These structures come in many sizes and can be set up quickly.

They are Clean

Many of the best transparent tents today are supported by metal spikes rather than by ropes or guy lines, and this improvement gives them a clean and even a sophisticated look. Some of these tents are designed with raised integrated flooring that keeps the interior dry, even in the rainiest weather.

They Honor Aesthetics

Well-designed clear span tents are elegant. They offer an unobstructed view of beautiful scenery and big skies. At night, lights reflect off the ceiling as if in a glass palace and form a sparkling kaleidoscope. While technology, profits and power are the guiding forces for most of the world today, the effect of beauty on the human soul cannot be ignored. Deep down, in even the most ambitious modern persons, there is still a grain of appreciation for the timelessly sublime.
