Passive solar radiation protection (Shading from UV) in open playgrounds is a major problem for schools. Aerosail’s engineered fabric structures are a cost effect and practical alternative to the trees.
<h3>Basketball Courts and Assembly Areas</h3>
Over basketball/netball courts Aerosail Summit and Peak are the recommended solution.
<ul>
<li>They provide excellent coverage, </li>
<li>Can have a mixture of  colours for visual stimulation, </li>
<li>Are an economical solution,</li>
<li>Are a very strong design,</li>
<li>Provide good clearance over playing area,</li>
<li>Are a reduced vandalism risk</li>
</ul>
<h3>Playgrounds</h3>
The benefits of our engineered fabric structures over trees are as follows;
<ul>
<li>Shade from the product is immediate. You don’t need to wait years for them to grow.</li>
<li>The shading requirement can be measured and installed with a degree of certainty</li>
<li>The structures behaviour under various weather conditions is calculable and predictable because they are engineered by external consultants.</li>
<li>On going maintenance is minimal because they do not drop branches or leaves, nor do they require a 6 monthly check up from an arborist. However an inspection every 3 – 5 years is prudent.</li>
<li>They are safe because they do not drop branches or fall over</li>
<li>They do not impact on other infrastructure’such as undermining foundations or getting into drains and they do not have roots which create a trip hazard</li>
</ul>
<h3>Swimming pools</h3>
Over large swimming pools the Aerosail Peak, which has no centre column, is the recommended design.
<h3>Covered walkways</h3>
We have two designs suitable for covered walkways. The elegant wave is by far the most popular choice. For high visual impact, the Madonna conics are hard to beat.
