Large Custom Canopy
Miami, FL
The Client
For this project, our client is a Magnet School for Sports Leadership and Management. They have a building across from the main campus that has additional classrooms and an outdoor patio area for students to fellowship and spend time outdoors. The architect involved with the school designed a curved canopy to provide weather protection and shade for students, so they would be able to use the space throughout the year.
The Canopy
This canopy has a custom curved shape fabricated and installed for a State of the Art (7) Story School Facility. The canopy covers an outdoor patio area of a special Sports Leadership and Management Charter School. The canopy covers an area that is 58’-0” wide x 34’-0” projection. Ultrashade USP 123 Stoplight Red is the fabric selected for the cover. This canopy, like all Miami Awning Structures, is engineered and built to the Florida Building Code.
The Outcome
The principal, teachers and students were very excited and pleased with their new outdoor canopy area. They enjoy using the outdoor space that is now covered. The students and faculty are all focused on sports related curriculum's and careers and this new area also gives them another space for outdoor activities when needed. They especially appreciate how the canopy keeps them cool and protected from the intense rays of the sun or tropical downpours during the summer and fall seasons. What a great space!
