A WiikHall Aluminium Structure can be supplied in any required length. The standard width is 10 metres. Both the framework and covers are built up from four-metre-long sections, comprising a limited number of identical components.

This makes these relocatable buildings very flexible. If you have acquired two 10 x 20 metre WiikHall Aluminium Structures, for instance, you can combine components from both these buildings. That allows you to create one building measuring 10 x 12 metres and another of 10 x 28 metres, for instance.

Properties and advantages of a WiikHall Aluminium Structure

 

  • These buildings weigh less than a comparable steel structure. Freight costs, particularly by air, are therefore substantially reduced.

     
  • Each section of fabric cover is only four metres wide and weighs a mere 56 kilograms. It can be easily handled by just two people, and installed without difficulty even in windy conditions.

     
  • Four-metre-long modules mean that the length of a building can be increased or reduced as required. All components are interchangeable. If you have acquired two 10 x 24 metre WiikHall Aluminium Structures, for instance, you can create one building measuring 10 x 20 metres and another of 10 x 28 metres. Alternatively, you could construct a 10 x 48 metre unit.

     
  • All erection work can be done from the ground. Riggers do not need to climb five metres to the top of the structure, reducing the risk of injuries from falling.

     
  • Save time. A trained six-member team can erect a 10 x 24 metre WiikHall in four hours. Add an extra hour if the length is 32 metres.


Save money. Should you be so unfortunate as to damage the fabric cover, its division into four-metre-wide sections means that only the damaged part needs to be replaced. The cover is attached to the structure by keders (bolt ropes), and replacing a section takes only a few minutes. Should any part of the framework – such as an upright, for instance – be struck and damaged, this four-metre section can be removed and the rest of the building continue to be used until a spare module has been delivered.
