With years of experience designing and developing igloo storage sheds on our side, Ezy Igloo knows all too well the importance of dependable structures that can withstand the unexpected. Our container domes are rigorously tested to ensure high-performance whether it’s harsh sunlight or extreme wind. In this blog, we discuss the importance of understanding wind regions, how they affect shelters and how our engineering team accounts for these conditions to keep your work site safe.
Understanding Australian Wind Regions
The wind regions of Australia are classified into four categories:
- Wind Region A refers to the wind loads experienced by the inland areas and southern coast of the country
- Wind Region B includes the northern coastal areas that are not particularly prone to cyclonic conditions
- Wind Region C refers to the northern coastal regions that experience tropical cyclones
The Ezy Igloo dome shelter range is certified for Wind Region A through to Region C.
Why are Wind Regions Important for a Dome Shelter?
A thorough understanding of the implications of wind regions is a crucial step to take before installing container covers. It is imperative that the frame and canopy have been tested to withstand extremely windy conditions. A structure that isn’t rated for a wind region could collapse, damaging equipment or even endangering employees. Here at Ezy Igloo, we take special care to ensure that our products are capable of handling specific wind regions easily.
Our igloo storage sheds are the result of years of innovative design and constant innovation. Whether you’re looking for an open dome shelter for easy accessibility, or a secure unit with full end walls, our engineers will help you find the most appropriate container covers for your purposes.
Fabric Shelters or Safety Sheds In Extreme Heat
Extreme heat is a clear and present hazard on Australian work sites. When the temperatures are soaring, there’s no better protection than our range of fabric container covers that are designed to reflect external heat, leaving the interior cooler than any other type of shelter.
