Default Height

G'day MLU'ers

The height on the temporary housing could be however high you wanted. All you need to do is choose a suitable height for the posts and cut the film to fit. It was aluminium framing that was 100 x 50 mm and the structures were actually cyclone rated. You could also use film with a reflective coating to keep them cool in summer.

I am not sure how the structures would handle snow as it is not much of an issue in Asia where the shelters were designed to be used for emergency housing after a natural disaster. They were for a possible UN contract which they lost because the structures were too dear. So having paid for the patents the company decided to branch out into building horticulture structures as there was more money to be made in that area. I think the company no longer exists.

Kind Regards
Lionel
