Before Legacy began operations in 2010, our team already had years of experience installing all manner of fabric structures. Many had been doing it since the mid 1990s, and they installed their fair share of monocover buildings.

It’s a question we get…often. It may be the first question that you, as a fabric structure buyer, ask yourself. Your immediate impulse will be to comparison shop what’s out there. Consumers love comparison shopping because the internet has made it easy, and it gives us confidence that we will...
This article appears in the November/December issue of The Military Engineer, and it explains how tension fabric structures have evolved from "hoop buildings" to the current state of the art. Current modern fabric structures have changed fundamentally, from the steel structure to the fabric to...
This article focuses on the operational challenges of installing tension fabric structures all over the world, even during a pandemic. It examines a project in Guam--a military hangar--that is designed to withstand 195 mph winds. It also looks at a project for U.S. Steel that has a very high...
Bringing all aspects of our tension fabric structures in-house has been part of Legacy’s evolution these past 10 years. That’s what single-source means to us.
Even though the economists don’t know what to call our current situation—recession, double-dip recession, depression, etc.—you are probably pretty sure what to call it.
Like a lot of construction companies, we like to talk about our steel, our proprietary fabric and even our new exclusive epoxy coatings. One of the most important elements, however, is communication. Just as our steel holds our structures together, good communication holds our projects together.
If you’re ready to talk to someone about our tension fabric structures, we try to make it easy with the “Request a Quote” button on the website. However, if you are nervous about clicking on that, don’t worry. The quote process is easy, clear and non-intrusive. A few answers can tell us a great...
Our engineers and designers do a lot of work to make sure our buildings stand up to the elements—wind, snow and seismic activity. We often mark our buildings with wind ratings, saying they will stand up to wind speeds of X miles per hour. Sometimes Mother Nature likes to check our math.
