As specialists in the design and use of tensed cables and porous fabrics, WeatherSolve can develop innovative solutions, or bring new levels of reliability to traditional systems. Call us to discuss your situation and requirements.

 

 

 

Walkway Screen

This screen system can be adapted to any requirement. On one set of posts there is wind protection, a visual screen and a security fence.
The posts in the photo are about 60ft (20m) apart which gives a number of advantages:

  • disruption to the site is minimized
  • less visual impact
  • more economical (fewer, stronger poles are almost always more economical)
  • option of spanning across gullies, streams etc.

Alternative combinations of cladding, post heights and post spacing are available to meet your specific requirements.


The photo shows a fence screening at a public walkway from agricultural operations in Medford, OR.  The upper part of the fence is to provide wind shelter for the orchard as well as reduce spray drift from the orchard.


The lower part has security mesh and slats installed on the same poles (Fence 20ft high, Poles at approx 45ft spacings)

Golf Driving Ranges

Tired of guy cables in the way of your ball pick-up operation?
Then switch to some stronger freestanding poles.


Poles are 80ft apart and 40ft high in the photo.
These systems are particularly reliable thanks to a carefully engineered attachment system that can be tailored to suit any loading situation.

Recreational shade canopies

Shade systems can be created for any situation - large or small.
As our systems are completely custom designed, you can choose exactly the level of protection and the area to be protected that you need.


For example, if you would like wind protection and hail protection as well as shade, we will create a system to suit. Retraction options are available, or the system can be sized to resist snow loads.


In choosing a system, consider these possible requirements:

 

- Decorative colours or the (more economical) black or clear for minimal light disruption?

 

- What level of temperature control, UV blockage and shade?

 

- Protection from – wind, hail, snow, rain, dust, people (visual or security) ?

 

- Area covered – complete coverage for which range of sun angles?

 

- Structure – where can supports be placed that will be out of the way?

 

- Strength – what loads do you want it designed for – hurricane strength structures are an option if needed.

 

Call WeatherSolve for a discussion on your situation.

 

 

A range of recreational shade fabrics are shown below.

 

 

How much sun
do you get?

 

The best hole size is as large as possible, whilst still giving protection.

 

In general terms this means holes about the size of the smallest hail that causes damage.

 

Strange things happen.

 


When the fabric is taut, hail stones tend to bounce on the net and hit other stones coming down. One orchard in Hastings NZ that was covered with a birdnet (3/4" diam holes) got almost perfect protection from a rice hail storm with hail about 3/8" long and 1/8" wide!
