SNOW-RESISTANT TENT STRUCTURES

The watchword for Amaranto Idea tensile structures is RESISTANCE: our goal has always been to guarantee of your digital ecosystem. to our customers in a relationship of total confidence mutual.

Our worst enemy? The unpredictability of TIME. 

Our goal? To allow you to stick to your plans, regardless of the weather, with complete safety and ease.

The Amaranto Idea structures are in fact designed for resist rain and heat, but also to ice and snow; it is thanks to thestructural engineering and high quality materials that we can afford to bear the load (including static) of snow on roofs.

WHAT IS SNOW LOAD? 

When referring to the “snow load” we mean a vertical load acting on the roofs.

The action of snow load on covers and in general on the building statics (both temporary and otherwise) is an issue that architects and engineers have always had to consider during the design phase.

When calculating its value, not only the specific weight of snow, but also the shape of the cover, characteristic reference value (calculated based on thegeographic area, on which the snow load on the ground depends), the exposure coefficient and thermal coefficient.

The calculation is then extended by the static combination and combined for example withseismic action, to that of the wind and all other possible additional problems.

NTC-CERTIFIED TENT STRUCTURES: PROBLEMS TO AVOID. 

In Italy, the snowfall they regularly affect, in the winter season, all the mountainous areas of the Alps and the Apennines, as well as the medium and high altitudes of the peaks of the major islands.

During the outbreaks of cold air of Arctic origin, the snow level it tends to significantly lower down to the hilly areas and, locally, also to the plains and some coastal stretches.

The weight of the snow It's certainly not a factor to be underestimated, and not just in the mountains!

In recent years, the effect of climate change is altering many certainties weather which we had taken for granted. 

Le city consider snowiest in Italy to date they are: Cuneo, Aosta, Campobasso, Urbino, Trento, Varese, Modena, Reggio Emilia, Fermo and Macerata.

La persistence of snow in winter and the appearance of the ice they can be very risky for weaker roofs and even for entire buildings, undermining their stability.

Choosing one NTC certified tent structure allows you not to be damaged in any way both in case of unforeseen climates and for installation in mountain regions or in any case particularly subject to snow cover and/or with particularly harsh and long winters.

Le NTC2019 (Technical Standards for Construction) They certify external structures and coverings with respect to the action of wind, snow and temperatures.

WINTER TENTS AND TENT STRUCTURES. 

An tent structure with snow load it is essential (and mandatory) for the waste storage, regardless of the location and duration of the deposit.

  Amaranth Idea tent structures are certified to withstand the weight of snow and all atmospheric agents even over a long period of time, because we do not want even a single episode to affect the health of your buildings (tennis courts, basketball courts, padel courts, sports fields, riding stables…), of your means (agricultural machinery, industrial machinery and tools, cars, vehicles and cycles…) or on the regular realization of your events (festivals, events, trade fair stands, parties and weddings...).

In the mountainous areas, the tensile structures compliant with snow load they are perfect for ice rinks, ice rink, Christmas markets, fairs and winter festivals.

GEODESIC DOMES WITH SNOW LOADING. 

As we said All Amaranto Idea tensile structures have snow load certification and, therefore, obviously also the geodesic domes.

Indeed, even more so the geodesic domes: the most resistant covers on the market, strong by nature, the only ones with a stability directly proportional to their size.

Here are some advantages for those who choose geodesic domes on snow:

• Geodesic domes, Ovalgeo and Padel allow the practice of sports "summer” even in mountainous areas, with cold temperatures and/or in winter seasons.
• Gazebos and awnings for garages and gardens they do not require maintenance or assembly and disassembly activities.
• Geodesic domes (also customized) for exhibition booths, outdoor demonstrations and events remain stable advertising outpost.
• Geodesic domes for exhibitions, displays and events they guarantee the turnout and also a temperature stable inside, thanks to the thermal insulation in fact the climate of the areas covered by the Fuller's Dome It remains constant and welcoming, despite the snow outside.
• Geodesic domes installed in parks and gardens also guarantee warmth in winter, thanks to the covering in transparent pvc, suggestive and unique settings.

Tensile structures or tensile structures solid and extremely functional in every season of the year.

Amaranth Idea, safety and well-being guaranteed!
