Client: | Custom House, Mount Maunganui, NZ |
Completion Date: | May 2007 |
Project Description: | Design, Manufacture & Installation 3m x 40m walkway canopy |
Project Brief:
Design and install a walkway canopy to provide all weather covered access to the upstairs apartments of a new apartment complex.
Project Comments:
This brand new apartment block by Donald Design of Auckland was erected on the site of the Mount Maunganui Custom House. The corner site necessitated a boomerang shape design with a number of tricky angles. Additional difficulties were imposed by the height of the installation above ground and integration with the external lift tower.
A feature of the canopy design is the complete absence of any tensioning mechanisms other than the cable catenaries. This resulted in a very clean, neat installation that maximised the coverage area and allowed for an economical frame support structure.

2007 - OFPANZ, Awnings & Canopies category winner
