When I read the headline I imagined a huge tent with steel beam structure and professional grade covers with HVAC and concrete footprint.
Seems everyone else imagined a camping tent. Different backgrounds I guess.
- Alex_L_Wood 3mo agoYeah, my immediate picture was a blue hobo tent with some extenders sticking out of it.
- Descon 3mo agoThose look like sprung structures's tents. They can get real fancy: https://www.sprung.com/ https://www.sprung.com/
- artisin 3mo agoWoW. I was thinking about building a new home recently, but now I'm thinking about pitching a membrane-tensioned tax haven, cuz last time I checked, temporary structures are exempt from property taxes. This is like the ultimate real estate hack.
- qingcharles 3mo agoGovernments hate this one trick!
- lokar 3mo agoSeveral gates at Santa Rosa airport are in a fancy tent. You don’t even notice at first.
- yanosh_kunsh 3mo agoI'm not sure why they even call them tents. Those are called fabric buildings. Fabric buildings have a lifespan of over 20 years[1] and this is limited by the PVC membranes, the actual steel structure can last a lot longer.
