Traditionally, RHI’s stretch tent designs require central poles to create tension and form in their structure’s designs. RHI’s “hypar” range, however, require no central poles, opening new opportunities for clear span applications and functionality, while maintaining striking aesthetics.
Manufactured using RHI’s patterning technology, and rigged using a high-low rigging technique (Alternate Long and short perimeter poles) the ‘hypar’ is a perfect solution for many applications including:
1. Carports: From our first 2.5m x 12m ‘hypar’ designed to cover parked cars back-to-back, ‘hypars’ for carports are now a popular choice as a striking alternative to more traditional offerings.
2. Outside patios: Private residencies, restaurants and function venues are looking at hypars as a brilliant solution for uninterrupted cover with striking architectural form.
3. Event venues: Whether temporary or as permanent structures, long hypars (up to 50m long as one piece) can be used to link various function areas providing rain cover for their guests.
4. Festivals: Hypars in various colours are in high demand with festival planners and event organisers as the perfect solution for pockets of shade. Their double-curvature design is eye-catching at any event.
5. Walkways: Hypars provide unobstructed, spacious pathways and walkways, ideal for creating clear, inviting routes through events, gardens, or outdoor venues. These versatile structures offer protection from elements without compromising the open feel, making them perfect for enhancing the flow and experience of any outdoor space. Hypars have been made for walkways up to 70 m long.
