The Phoenix
The Phoenix Series Fabric Structure is manufactured with tubular steel trusses that can be either pre-galvanized or post galvanized. It is available in nine width sizes and indefinite lengths. The Phoenix is designed to meet or exceed local building codes for all seismic and wind load requirements and unlike some of our competition is designed for full compliance with IBC 2009 and ASCE 7 definition of unbalanced snow load case. The fabric skin of the Phoenix is tensioned giving the exterior and interior a clean, wrinkle-free appearance.
