TensoView FAQ's
Why is the TensoView Spectator Shade ideal for schools or community sports?
TensoView is designed to provide shade and weather protection for spectators over smaller banked or stepped seating areas – often found along the sidelines of sports fields, track and field venues.
Are tensile membrane shade structures suitable for Australian weather conditions?
Yes. Tensile membrane shade structures are engineered for Australian conditions, providing excellent protection from sun and rain while creating a cooler, brighter environment than many conventional metal roof shelters.
Will a TensoView Spectator Shade help reduce heat in outdoor areas?
Yes. The membrane fabric reflects solar radiation and diffuses natural light, helping create a cooler and more comfortable space beneath the canopy.
Does a TensoView Spectator Shade provide UV protection?
Yes. The tensile membrane fabric provides high levels of UV protection while still allowing natural daylight to filter through.
How wide can the TensoView Span?
Designed for smaller viewing areas, our standard TensoView structures can provide 5.5m to 7m of coverage. Larger cantilever spans can be achieved with additional supports/bracing. For larger spans, speak to out team about custom options.
Is a tensile membrane roof durable?
Yes. TensoView structures use high-performance architectural fabric and engineered steelwork designed for long-term performance in Australian conditions.
What is the difference between a tensile membrane shade structure and a metal roof shade structure?
A tensile membrane shade structure provides softer natural light, reduced heat build-up, fewer support columns and a more architectural appearance than traditional metal roof structures.
What fabrics are used in a tensile membrane roof?
MakMax mainly uses architectural-grade PVC for fully weatherproof shade structures and high-strength HDPE shade mesh for shade-only structures.
Can a TensoView Spectator Shade be installed over an existing seating bank?
Yes. TensoView structures are commonly installed over existing seating banks. The columns can be designed to be anchored into the concrete steps at the top of the seating bank, or behind the seating area via extended columns.
