PVC in Middle East: the Bateau Bay Bowling Club Canopy
In Middle East construction, the Bateau Bay Bowling Club Canopy project stands as a prime example of the innovative use of PVC (polyvinyl chloride), demonstrating PVC’s vital role in advancing architectural design and functionality. This project, featuring the TensoSport-Max canopy’s Hawksbill design, accentuates the versatility and aesthetic appeal of PVC in Middle Eastern architectural contexts. Utilizing PVC (polyvinyl chloride), the project showcases a structure that is not only visually appealing but also functionally robust, highlighting PVC’s durability, UV resistance, and low maintenance—qualities crucial for Middle Eastern environmental conditions.
The deployment of PVC in Middle East, especially through the Bateau Bay Bowling Club Canopy, exemplifies how PVC (polyvinyl chloride) can seamlessly integrate practicality with architectural elegance. The adoption of PVC in Middle East projects like this represents a shift towards materials that promise longevity and performance while enhancing the visual impact of the construction. The application of PVC in Middle East construction, as evidenced by the Bateau Bay Bowling Club Canopy, plays a key role in achieving a perfect harmony between form and function, an approach highly prized in Middle Eastern architectural practices.
Moreover, the emphasis on PVC in Middle East within the Bateau Bay Bowling Club Canopy project underlines the material’s environmental advantages, resonating with the Middle Eastern emphasis on sustainable building practices. PVC’s (polyvinyl chloride) contribution to efficiency and sustainability in Middle East projects is a reflection of a commitment to pioneering eco-friendly construction techniques. The Bateau Bay Bowling Club Canopy project serves as a testament to PVC’s flexibility in meeting Middle Eastern standards for architecture and sustainability, establishing a precedent for PVC’s application in Middle Eastern construction endeavors.
Overall, the Bateau Bay Bowling Club Canopy is a testament to PVC innovation in Middle East, proving PVC’s capacity to transform both the functionality and aesthetics of architectural projects. The significant role of PVC in this Middle Eastern construction initiative not only enhances the project’s space but also affirms PVC’s importance in the Middle Eastern construction landscape, heralding a future where PVC (polyvinyl chloride) continues to influence innovative, sustainable, and visually compelling architectural solutions in Middle East.
The Brief
MakMax worked with the club’s architect EJE Architecture to develop the concept for the Bateau Bay Bowling Club Canopy.
The project was to cover one of the three existing bowling greens located at the club. The green closest to the clubhouse chosen to become the undercover facility.
The Materials
The 1800 square metre canopy is clad in Mehler Valmex FR900N PVC.
An architectural PVC (polyvinyl chloride) tensile membrane canopy is an excellent option for a bowls club looking for a full-cover bowling green canopy. The PVC membrane’s UV-resistant properties mean that it can also provide shade and protection from the sun during hot weather. Furthermore, the lightweight and flexible nature of the PVC (polyvinyl chloride) membrane it can be shaped and tensioned in a variety of ways, allowing for unique and eye-catching designs, such as the Hawksbill inclined-arch style structure installed at Bateau Bay Bowling Club.
The durability and longevity of PVC membrane means that the Bateau Bay Bowling Club canopy can withstand extreme weather conditions and last for many years without requiring significant maintenance or replacement.
The canopy contains a number a passive air-vents located at the highest points of the vaulted roof sections. Designed to vent any trapped heat during the summer months, the vents also reduce the chance of moisture build-up on the underside of the PVC membrane during periods of high humidity.
