Shade System of the Hut of the GlamTech Warrior

The Hut on the playa has two layers of shade. The goal is to protect containers and space between containers from sun-related heat.

Under layer

The under layer is a 20' x 20' silver/brown tarp (available here or here) supported by guy-wires secured to the top anchor points of the containers with ratchet straps and crossing in the center for additional support.

Top layer

The top layer is a 70' x 40' piece of aluminet connected with two dozen bungee cords on the outside of the containers. This expensive piece of aluminet can be replaced with smaller pieces of fabric. A couple of inches of breathing space between the aliminet/fabric and the container roof/sides will help lower temperature inside containers. D22HutOfTheGlamTechWarrior.3.jpg
