An keder rail and clamping anchor secure keder fabric to a building support beam. In one embodiment, the clamping anchor clamps about the support beam. In a second embodiment, the anchor passes through the support beam and compresses a pair of laterally extending keder rail feet against the support beam. A temporary keder rail anchor has a transitional member, support beam engagement, and keder rail engagement that displace and hold the second embodiment keder rail to an offset position relative to support beam prior to and during installation of keder fabric within the keder rail. A method of tensioning keder fabric uses this holder to secure the keder rail adjacent an edge of the structural beam while keder fabric is inserted. The holder is released and the keder rail is centered on the beam to tension the keder fabric, and the keder rail is secured to the structural beam.

An enclosure comprising an opening that allows access to a space formed by the enclosure, a door that covers the opening, wherein the door includes a pair of rigid edges, and a vertical living hinge that attaches the door to a portion of the enclosure. The enclosure may comprise a horizontal living hinge that allows the pair of rigid edges to fold with respect to each other. The door may comprise a plurality of stiffening members to form the pair of rigid edges. The enclosure may comprise a plurality of stiffening members in the enclosure wall, located proximate to the opening. The plurality of stiffening members in the enclosure wall may be positioned to substantially align with the plurality of stiffening members in the door, so as to cover the opening and form a seal between the door and the enclosure

A tensile membrane structure building system (10) including several standard extruded structural members (12) of the same cross-sectional profile. These standard structural members (12) have a rectangular cross-sectional profile with four sides (50.1-50.4) oriented at right angles to each other at four corners (52.1-52.4), each side including formations that define at least one channel (54) extending along a length of the structural members. By means of fasteners (80) that cooperate with the channels, standard structural members may be interlocked so as to form a framework (14). Each side of the standard structural member also include two slots (58) located on either side of the channel or channels towards the corners, the slots configured to receive and hold an edge of a membrane (16).

There is described a canopy system comprising two or more parallel elongated rods, one or more canopy pieces having two parallel edges, two or more elongated bars connected to each of the two or more parallel elongated rods and attached to each of the two parallel edges of the one or more canopy pieces, and at least one connection mechanism attached to each of the elongated rods having a connector that is capable of being suspended from a support. The elongated rods may include at least one lower cavity having two channels each configured to detachably and slidably receive each of the elongated bars. The lower cavity may have a groove that is configured to detachably and slidably receive an accessory. The elongated rods each may include at least one upper cavity configured to detachably and slidably receive each connection mechanism and a second accessory.

The invention relates to an adapter element for fastening a planar element, in particular an awning, to a vehicle, including an adapter body, which has a first edge region for fastening the adapter element to a vehicle, and a second edge region for fastening a planar element to the adapter element. The first edge region of the adapter body is equipped with a vehicle connection element for releasably fastening the first edge region to a vehicle. The second edge region of the adapter body is equipped at the second edge region with a planar element connection element for releasably fastening the second edge region to an edge region of a planar element. The invention also relates to a modular system having such an adapter element and having a planar element.

There is described a canopy system comprising two or more parallel elongated rods, one or more canopy pieces having two parallel edges, two or more elongated bars connected to each of the two or more parallel elongated rods and attached to each of the two parallel edges of the one or more canopy pieces, and at least one connection mechanism attached to each of the elongated rods having a connector that is capable of being suspended from a support. The elongated rods may include at least one lower cavity having two channels each configured to detachably and slidably receive each of the elongated bars. The lower cavity may have a groove that is configured to detachably and slidably receive an accessory. The elongated rods each may include at least one upper cavity configured to detachably and slidably receive each connection mechanism and a second accessory.
