Clearspan Structures: Midbeam™
The Midbeam™ Clearspan Fabric Structure features a design with no interior poles to allow for the best use of space. The design consists of a series of aluminum beams rotated and held into position by the use of lateral purlins. The fabric of the structure slides through a track in the extruded beam and is highly tensioned to achieve superior performance for seasonal applications. The Midbeam™ design allows for its ease of transporting and high weight-to-strength ratio. The Midbeam™ is available in widths of 40’, 50’, 60’, 80’ and 100’ and is expandable in modular bays in 10’, 15’ and 20’ increments.

Frame Tents
Frame Tents feature a skeleton of aluminum framework and steel connectors to support the tent top. Although this style of tent is "free-standing" by design, it still must be anchored to resist wind forces. All styles of frame tents have no poles that come to the ground in the interior space of the tent.

Pole Tents
Pole tents rely on tension in the membrane to hold the shape of the tent system. These tents are supported by single or multiple centerpoles in the middle of the tent area and a series of sidepoles around the perimeter of the tent area. The tent is tensioned toward the anchoring locations commonly with a rope or ratchet strap.

Clearspan Structures
Similar to Frame Tents, these types of frame supported structures have no interior posts or columns. The unique attribute that Clearspan Structures hold is their ability to span quite large distances without interior posts and also without external guying. Generally, these structures are built for higher loading applications and larger span sizes.

Compatible Plus
'Compatible-Plus®' products are aesthetically and structurally indistinguishable from their competitive counterparts. However, the new series have been re-engineered, incorporating proprietary improvements to their structural quality and integrity. These options allow the tent industry customers to purchase from the vendor they deem best.
