After final engineering is completed, manufacturing and fabrication of the membrane and structural steel begins. During the fabrication phase, prestress PTFE or PVC fabric membrane is cut and welded to create final panel sizes to be installed in the field. Once the manufacturing of the membrane and steel members are finished, packaging of the materials are carefully handled for shipping and unpacking at the job site.
Operating from a 47,300 square foot manufacturing facility with over 85 years of experience, there are virtually no limitations to the size and complexity of tensile structures we can build. Eide Industries is a Los Angeles Certified Fabricator (#FB01716 Type 1) with the ability to construct nearly any conceivable tensioned fabric structure.
