Saddle-Shaped Shade Structure
One of our most exciting designs, the Helena Modular Shade Structure is a circular, anticlastic saddle-like structure supported by 3 perimeter pillars.
Perfect for shading and weather proofing a school courtyard or covered outdoor learning area, the wave-like upper curve can be positioned over the top of adjacent buildings.
Helena is also a star performer for outdoor stages and other public and community shade projects.
- Engineered as a permanent shade structure, Helena Modulars are designed for any Australian wind speed.
- Completely weather-proof, Helena Modulars include galvanised steel cables with stainless steel fittings and a UV stabilised membrane.
- Helena has three lightweight V-shaped columns.
- Lighting and electrical connectivity available.
