Osborn Lane had two tasks on this temporary maintenance hangar at Richmond Airforce Base.

The major job was the curtain wall at one end of the hangar. The hanger is a demountable fabric and aluminium structure supplied by Universal Fabric Structures. The standard end wall supplied with the hangar did not allow large transport aircraft to be moved in and out without dismantling the wall, so Osborn Lane designed a 10m high fabric curtain, complete with curtain track and frame, for the end wall. This curtain can be opened to the full width of the hangar.

The other task was to design and detail safety cables above the plane fuselage and wings, so maintenance workers could attach fall safety harnesses. This task was complicated by the light aluminium and fabric structure of the demountable hangar.
