Shade Sail Engineering & Structural Design

At Commercial Shade Sails, we provide complete end-to-end service for our customers, including complete structural design and shade sail engineering.

Commercial tensioned shade structures almost always require a full engineered design to ensure the reliability and safety of the structure and that it meets all applicable building codes. Large projects often need to submit shade sail engineering documentation to get building approval from local government and other controlling bodies.

Finding an engineer to complete your shade sail structure design can be difficult, time-consuming and expensive. We’ve made the process simple, so you can get your engineer design done easily.

Playground Shade Sail Engineering Example

Tell us what you need from your shade structure and our team can help you with a rough design that will meet your needs or if you already have a design in mind we can work with that too. Choose your fabric because shade mesh and waterproof fabrics have very different properties that your shade sail engineering design will need to account for.

Send us some photos of the proposed site plus any additional details you have like geotechnical and underground services reports. If you don’t have this information to hand we can organise these inspections and reports as well.

Once we have an idea of the size of the sail, the structure required, the site and the materials being used, we can proceed with the engineering. We are dedicated to providing high-quality products and service to all our clients. We’ve partnered with professional engineers with extensive experience in shade sail structure design to make the engineering process easy. We offer complete sets of tensioned shade sail engineer designs, as well as workshop drawings, fabric patterns, reports and certificates of compliance, so you have everything you need for council submissions and building approval.

Our full-service team is here to help you save time and money. With a seamless shade sail experience from planning to completion, you can focus on your business without worrying about shade sails. Get started today by contacting us and take the stress out of shade sail engineering.
