Tensioned Membrane Structures

Lincsus - Representative Partner of Charles Associates

Tensioned membrane structures are precision-engineered, clear-span buildings constructed with military-grade, rust-free aluminum alloy and a durable architectural membrane. Designed for rapid deployment, these structures can be built within weeks, with widths from 30 ft (9 m) to 200 ft (61 m) and unlimited length, requiring minimal foundations. They offer airtight envelopes, energy-efficient insulation, and meet global building codes. Key benefits include exceptional speed—up to 2,000 sq. ft (185 m²) per day, or 1,000 sq. ft (93 m²) per day if insulated—plus relocateability and resilience in extreme climates, from -60°F (-51°C) to 122°F (+50°C). Unlike steel, aluminium provides superior corrosion resistance, lighter weight, and a 50-year pro-rata guarantee. Applications span industrial, commercial, and emergency sectors, including aviation, warehousing, disaster recovery, and controlled-environment agriculture. With over 12,000 projects in 100+ countries, Sprung delivers proven, flexible solutions backed by leasing or purchase options.
