When it comes to creating spaces that are both functional and flexible, Global Fabric Structures' Alu-Span series stands out as a premier solution. These pre-engineered, lightweight aluminium-framed fabric constructions deliver an exceptional blend of durability and versatility, catering to a wide range of applications — from industrial warehousing to aviation and even sports arenas.
Engineering Excellence with a Lightweight Touch
The Alu-Span series' anodised box beam framing system is engineered for rapid deployment. This design ethos ensures that the structures can be packed, shipped, and installed swiftly, making them the ideal choice for both interim and permanent facilities. With a construction process streamlined for ease and efficiency, Alu-Span lays the groundwork for robust structures that can spring up almost overnight.
The No-foundation Advantage
One of the most striking features of the Alu-Span structures is their foundation-free installation for most short-term applications. Mounted on galvanised steel base plates or ground beams, these structures can be secured using anchorage stakes, avoiding the need for permanent foundations. This not only simplifies the setup process but also ensures minimal impact on the site and the environment.
Diversity in Design
The Alu-Span comes in two distinct profile options - the A-Frame (Alu-Hall) and the Tension Frame Structure (TFS) with a curved roof. Each design has been fashioned for different requirements and aesthetic preferences, ensuring there's an Alu-Span to match every need.
- Alu-Span TFS 310 & Alu-Span TFS 380: These profiles feature a high-pitched roof and a majestic curved silhouette, suitable for spaces requiring a combination of height and style. Their assembly widths range from a versatile 18m to an expansive 50m.
- Alu-Span Alu-Hall: Drawing on the classical A-frame design, the Alu-Hall profile delivers a traditional look ranging from 15m to 40m in standard span.
Tailored for Your Needs
Understanding the diverse nature of demands from different industries, Global Fabric Structures offers various finishing touches to customise your Alu-Span structure. From specialised fabrics that can withstand various climatic conditions to options for doors, windows, and even air-tight negative pressure environments, every Alu-Span can be tailored to your requirements. This adaptability extends to HVAC systems integration, ensuring comfort in any weather.
Applications That Span Across Industries
The practical and aesthetic appeal of Alu-Span structures makes them apt for a broad spectrum of uses, including military operations, aviation hangars, sports facilities, industrial sites, and warehousing solutions. These structures are also perfect for environmentally sensitive operations like remediation projects, offering safe and secure containment that can be deployed quickly.
