Case Study & Engineering Overview
The Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium Outer Canopy stands as a landmark installation in New Delhi, representing ArcShade's state-of-the-art approach to modern tensile architecture. Engineered to protect and shelter a total span of 18,000 sq.ft, this School & Playground Shades structure blends premium aesthetic form with top-tier structural stability.
Membrane & Material Profile: PTFE
PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) Coated Fiberglass was chosen for this installation. PTFE is class-A non-combustible, chemically inert, and completely immune to UV degradation. It features a self-cleaning surface where dirt washes off naturally during rainfall, ensuring a pristine white finish for over 30 to 50 years.
Structural Integrity & Framing
Custom-tailored for School & Playground Shades, the canopy is engineered with curved architectural profiles that distribute tension evenly across the membrane. The supporting steel structure is built using high-yield MS hollow sections, treated with premium anti-corrosive coatings.
