Abstract:
In an inflatable structure, comprising a first inflatable beam, upon inflation the first inflatable beam extends from a first point of ground contact at a first point along the perimeter of the structure to a first position at a first elevation, from the first position at the first elevation to a second position at a second elevation and from the second position at the second elevation to a second point of ground contact at a second point along the perimeter of the structure. A second inflatable beam is coupled to the first inflatable beam, and upon inflation the second inflatable beam extends from a third point of ground contact at a third point along the perimeter of the structure to a third position at a third elevation, from the third position at the third elevation to a fourth position at a fourth elevation and from the fourth position at the fourth elevation to a fourth point of ground contact at a fourth point along the perimeter of the structure. Sheeting is coupled to the first inflatable beam and the second inflatable beam, wherein the sheeting provides shade, camouflage, protection from ultraviolet radiation, protection from extreme temperatures, or protection from solar loading for objects located under or within the inflatable structure.
