Our Inspiration
F3 Instant Structures; inspired by the Bedouins (Desert dwellers) of North Africa, developed a unique relocatable building alternative which utilizes high quality breathable architectural membrane panels (in place of goat hair) combined with a non corroding aluminum substructure. The anchoring systems & sub structure are based on the original Bedouin style rigging, however it has been customized based on the international mountaineering
techniques for commercial usage.

Unit Solutions (USI) rigging capability

Rigging based on international mountaineering techniques
We offer an open invitation to any other Instant stressed membrane company to challenge us on our unique way of using the "prosec & ball" rigging technique; that was established 100's of years ago. The "SAFETY" challenge can be
at any venue that offers gusty wind conditions. The challenge will allow the companies to compete on 1) membrane strength 2) rigging technique 3) water tightness. Any company that are up for the challenge can contact our office for more details:
