Info: Hospitality for Audi Thron Sailing Series
The structure that follows the Audi-sponsored sailing and skiing events consists of two roll-off containers connected by a roof made of Tensairity pneumatic beams. The 13-meter beams are designed to be broken down into two pieces for stowage in the containers. The beams are equipped with an RGB LED lighting system that illuminates both the beam itself and the covered space below. The structure is assembled in four hours from the moment the containers are positioned. The structure is designed to be adaptive: depending on snow or wind conditions, the beams can increase their rigidity, increasing the pressure inside them.
The smart roof consists of three Tensairity beams that span 12 meters, covering the area between two containers. Roof is assembled in 4 hours and when dismantled (longest element 6 m) it fits in one of the two containers. System is designed to be adaptive. According to the external loads (wind, snow) structure increase its rigidity according to the overpressure of the inflatable hulls. Beams of the roof can be enlightened according to client requirements.
