ABSTRACT:
A frame structure comprises a plurality of parallel, spaced apart, arched frame assemblies composed of pairs of frames. This enables existing frame members to be used for longer spans and/or stronger structures. The pairs of frames are connected together at spaced apart positions. Conveniently the connections between frames occurs adjacent to the ends of sections forming the frames and a combined arrangement can be used for connecting frames and joining sections. Fabric panels extend between the frames of a pair and between pairs of frames. The panels have integral tensioning means. The frames are pivotally fastened to ground support means.
