Fabricon designed and fabricated the tent using a split bale ring to support and provide tension to the fabric from the top of the tent membrane. The fabric was suspended to two opposing symmetrical arches meeting at the bottom center of the membrane, supported by two smaller door arches, forming a conical hypar (hyperbola) form with wings. Guy ropes were attached to points on the tent\u2019s membrane and bale ring. These ropes were then staked down into the ice, and snow piled onto a large exterior skirt providing additional ballast and structural stability.<\/p>\n
