HOW SHADE SAILS WORK

Because it's not held up with a frame, the design of the sail is crucial in that it needs curvy sides to tension, these curves are worked out at ±7% of the width of a side, so that when we start to tension it, the curves try to force its way outwards to tighten up the centre of the sail, curves are essential to avoid ending up with a sagging shade cloth look. The poles are planted into the ground at a depth of around 700mm to 1000mm and are usually set at 75-degree angle, to ensure the base of the structure is solid and so that the pole don’t flex under the extreme tension of the shade material.
