Prior to assembly
Please read the instructions carefully before installation. It is very important to
follow your local safety regulations and industry standards during installation.
Regulations may include but are not limited to:
- Safety helmets, protective eyewear, and clothing
- Safety harnesses for all elevated workers
- Proper ladder, cage, and safety operation
Check all components and parts before installation. All parts are marked with a part
number, please refer to the parts list to make sure you have all parts.
Choose a day with low or no wind to install, assembly is hard in heavy wind. Do not
make any alterations to the structure. Do not hang any weights on the frame during
installation, including parts. We are not responsible for any damages or injuries caused by
inappropriate installation, unauthorized modifications or extreme weather.
This building is not intended for human occupancy.
It is recommended to tape or add foam/rubber on the frame where joints connect and
where it touches the cover. This will help extend the life span of the cover.
Read the following item list carefully and count the number of items to ensure that all
parts are included prior to setup.
Installation steps
Step 1 : Review the whole structure and choose the proper installation site
Choose a solid flat level ground area to set up the building. Do not install the building on
soft ground, wetland, uneven surfaces, sloped surfaces, or on top of structures that are not
rated to hold its weight.
We strongly recommend that you put the containers on hard foundations before installing
the shelter.

Be aware of the surrounding area. Do not set up the building near snowdrifts, open flames
or exposed electrical wires. Do not keep heat sources near the fabric cover. Keep the
building surroundings clear at all times.

Step 2 : Place the containers making sure they are parallel and the correct width apart.
Make sure there is a gap of about 1 meter around the building. (refer to Picture 1 as
below)

Step 3 : Assemble base tubes
1. Ensure the site is level and firm. place the containers 8980mm apart
2. Secure base plate and “L” shape plate (#6、#7) to the container top. Bolt in M8*80
(#11) connect evenly adjoining spigots at each side (L1-L8; R1-R8)
3. Please reserve 5cm space for wedding of the “L” shape plate.
4. Weld the base plate and “L” shape plate (#6、#7) to the container top (refer to Picture
2 as below)
Components are :
(1) Base plate (#L1)
(6) Base plate (#L2-#L7)
(1) Base plate #(L8)
(1) Base plate (#R1)
(6) Base plate (#R2-#R7)
(1) Base plate (#R8)
(32) Hex bolt M8x80mm (#11)
(28) Double "L" shape plate (#6)
(8) Double "L" shape plate (#7)

Step 4 : Connect all trusses
Layout all truss components on the ground in the correct configuration before bolting
them together.
There are total 9 trusses to build, use the hex bolt (#10) to connect all tubes
together. Then use (#12) bolts to link (#5) to (#2) . (refer to Picture 3 as below)
Components are :
(1x9) Peak arch tube (#1)
(2x9) Middle rafter tube (#2)
(2x9) Shoulder tube (#3)
(1x9) Ceiling cross bar (#5)
(8x9) Bolt M8*70 (#10)
(2x9) (18) Hex bolt M10x30mm (#12)
Picture 3
Step 5 : Put up all trusses
Install each truss on the base tube. Use hex bolt (#10) to secure the truss to the base
tube firmly. We recommend to use a crane or forklift to lift the truss and have 2 to
3 people on site to work together. Please make sure it is safe and secure when
installation is proceeding. (refer to picture 5 as below)

Install purl in tubes (#4) and use locking bolts (#9). Add the water plugs on both ends of
the base tubes. (refer to picture 6 as below)
Components are :
•(40) Purl in tube (#4)
•(45) Locking bolt (#9)
•(4) Water plug (#8)

Overall structural inspection : check all components and trusses to ensure the entire
structure is rectangular as specified in ( picture 1). All trusses must be 90 degrees straight
up from the container.
Secure and tighten all bolts and nuts on this step. But do not over tie! Otherwise you
might damage the tubes or components.
Step 6 : Install the cover
Expand the fabric cover (#13) on the ground, pull it carefully from one side into
place, stay away from snagging on sharp edges, bolts, etc. Use the braided rope (#14)
to tie both sides to the bottom tube rebar through the grommets. Also pull the front
and rear cover and tie to the trusses. All four sides need to be tied firmly at the same
time to make sure it is square, smooth and straight. All grommet needs to be
fastened to the frame with wavy lines. Finally tie the corners of the cover to the
corners of the frame. (refer to picture 6 & 7 as below)

After Installation
Walk around and inspect the building periodically to make sure the parts are firmly
fixed and the whole building is well supported. Check all bolts and hardware
connectors to make sure they are in place and tightened. Check the base plates,
adjust the ropes if necessary and clean the cover regularly.
Snow accumulating on the fabric cover must be removed as soon as possible. If
snow is allowed to become solid ice on the cover, it could increase the weight on the
roof and collapse the buildingor reduce the life span.
We strongly recommend you remove any snow from the roof immediately. Do not leave
any snow load on the roof overnight. Keep 3 feet of clearance on all sides at all times. Do
not allow snow to accumulate and pile up on the sides of the building. Otherwise the
pressure from the sides will push inwards and could lead to a collapse.
