This rigid frame requires attachment to a substructure. The woven mesh is clamped tight by bolts into a frame made of flat and angled bars. There are various of bar profiles can be considered. Pre-crimped wire mesh can also be welded to frames. Fabric is not tensioned in this construction and to assure flatness, drapery size is according to the wire mesh selection.

The frame type of flat and angle with threaded rod.

Flat and angle with threaded rod means both ends of the woven mesh are clamped by the flat and angled bars with a threaded rod. It is welded to the angle bar for tensioning by turnbuckles or nuts. Other bar profiles can be used based on desired appearance.

Woven mesh installation for the one woven-in bar with spring.

Woven-in bar with spring, this system was developed specifically for facades and parking structures where considering the requirement of tension loads. Round bars are inserted into the fabric in place of weft wires at the top, bottom and intermediate locations. The top round bar is inserted into triangular brackets. Any intermediate round bars are connected to pivoting brackets for lateral support. Springs attach to the bottom bar in order to apply proper pre-tension to the fabric and to reduce the tension force on the structure. Eyebolts are attached to the springs to allow for maximum adaptation.
