We successfully completed the installation of three walkway and entrance canopies in time for the new school year.

The installation was carried out in two phases. During the first phase, the frame was fitted earlier in the year while the foundations were exposed and the main building works were underway.

The second phase, involving the fitting of the tensile fabric, took place in July. This timing ensured a clean site, significantly reducing the risk of dirt or paint contamination from ongoing construction.

The canopy design, derived from the hypar (hyperbolic paraboloid) form, channels rainwater toward the lower struts. Here, a hopper detail allows water to flow internally down the galvanized steel frame to ground level, where it is discharged into a pre-installed surface drain.
