Lightweight Design
The design process.
Lightweight Design is the engineering/drafting division in Lightweight Manufacturing. The engineers specialize in standardized tensioned fabric structures. Specifcally, for rental and permanent structures; where the load requirements of these structures need certification.
A Professional Engineer (PE) certified in the jurisdiction where the project is located is responsible for sealing the certifications for submission.
However, Lightweight conducts engineering reviews and provides certifications for all types of tensioned fabric structures and rental tents. With a PE seal in any US State; meaning, clearspan tents, tensile tents, and frame tents are included.
Reliable engineering.
(NOTE: Lightweight acts as a subcontractor andĀ does notĀ provide installation of projects for any tensile or tent structures.)
These renders were provided by our talented engineers and drafters as they run different fabric stress analyses through various simulations of different structural forms.
Illustrated, are cone, cantilever, and barrel structures rendered to ensure the fabric integrity will hold accounting for several variables such as weather and tension.
