Osborn Lane carried out the structural design, shop drawings and fabric patterning for this roof canopy over seating at the UWC playing fields, Singapore. Our client was Sail Canopy.

The appearance of the simple barrel vault shape is enhanced by the three bay catenary extension at each end of the structure. The fabric is teflon coated fibreglass, erected in two parts, with a field joint over the central rafter. Teflon coated fibreglass is relatively more popular in Singapore than in Australia, where a structure like this would probably be covered with PVC coated polyester fabric.
