Long-standing facilities could use an upgrade every once and a while. This includes water treatment plants. You may be thinking, “What’s wrong with the way water treatment plants operate now?” The truth is, potable water treatment facilities can run into the same problems as other…
Researchers often work in the harshest climates and conditions to help us better understand the world around us. As they find solutions to our worldly issues, they need the support of strong research facilities to do their work. With new technology, fabric buildings are stronger and more durable than in the past, with comparable strength to brick-and-mortar buildings. Two major benefits of using fabric structures are that they are very fast and easy to setup, and are portable. There are of course other benefits of fabric structures, including tested strength in harsh climates. Whether research operations are in the middle of the jungle or Antarctica, Alaska Structures fabric buildings can support the operation.

Researchers at the HAWC Collaboration, a gamma ray observatory located in Mexico that uses domes from Alaska Structures®, recently discovered a galactic source of gamma rays, of note because of its potential to produce high-energy cosmic rays. HAWC Gamma Ray Observatory HAWC, which…
The U.S. Department of Transportation’s Office of Pipeline Safety cites “outside force” as the leading cause of damage to pipelines. Although there is typically security on site to prevent damage caused by people or sabotage, weather conditions aren’t controllable. It’s important to protect pipelines to prevent death, irreparable environmental damage, and loss of revenue. Preventive steps can protect pipelines to prevent damage, starting with proper buildings for gas and oil operations. Pipelines need enclosures that are very strong and durable to withstand harsh weather and prevent damage. This article features pipeline enclosures from Alaska Structures, with proven and tested designs that will protect oil and gas operations.
Studying core samples is an important aspect of scientific research and proper core storage is critical to maintaining accurate records. Scientists, educators, governments, and private companies all play a role in preserving and examining rock and ice cores. While the basis of the research may…
With projections for one of the coldest winters ever, it’s important aviators and commercial airlines are ready for it. Planes are expensive assets that can be expensive to repair if damaged, so they need very good protection this winter. An airplane and helicopter hangar is a sure way to protect planes from damage due to the weather. Alaska Structures offers strong, cost-effective airport hangars made from specially designed fabric. These hangars, in addition to being very strong and cost-effective, are customizable, tested to meet local standards, and flexible. The fabric airport hangars have been tested in the field and will last this winter.
Disasters do not wait to strike at opportune times or places. Instead, they interrupt the daily lives of those caught in the devastating path — causing trauma to both people and the structures they rely on for safety. Alaska Structures® supports government agencies, businesses, first…
Alaska Structures offers custom-built engineered fabric structures for various airport facilities and operations.
