Project : "Brighton Marina - Marina Control Building"
The tensile membrane installed at Brighton Marina; not only provides a recognisable for sailors entering the harbour, but also resolved a planning issue. The canopy is connected at five fixed points; which have adjustable turnbuckle connections. The saddle form provides an anticlastic surface of 70 square metres. The membrane is made from Type 3 Structure Grade PVC Coated Polyester with a 10 Year warranty, and tensioned using Stalok's stainless steel catenary and link tension cables.
