Large Tensioned Fabric Structures (TFS) have more in common with the traditional building construction process than with “tents” when it comes to large Design/Build projects. However, too often the agents tasked with writing the specification, or with overseeing the installation, do not have sufficient product knowledge to operate effectively and efficiently. Join with Gregory Jones of Shelter Structures Inc., as he takes you on a fun-filled, interactive journey through a recent 40,000 square foot installation for a military customer. Laugh at some of the customer-side conceptions, cry at the unnecessary excess costs, and take away some lessons to help you educate your next prospect.
