Colorado Yurt Lattice Wall

The Colorado Yurt lattice wall is made from clear, vertical grain Douglas fir. Each piece of lattice in the yurt wall is smoothly machine sanded to exactly 1-½” wide x ½” thick. This gives the wood a very finished look and a perfect rivet connection where the lattice pieces cross. The lattice wall of the yurt is fastened at one-foot intervals with pull rivets and stainless steel back-up washers. The wall can expand and contract like a baby-gate. Fully expanded, the height of the yurt wall is 5’-10” for a Standard Height Yurt or, 6’-9” for the optional Taller Wall Yurt.

Colorado Yurt Standard Rafters

Colorado Yurt's standard rafters are constructed of select 2"x4"s. Each rafter is machine stress rated to a bending strength of 2100 pounds per square inch. Every yurt rafter is finished on all four sides. The end of each rafter is rounded and notched to fit over the main cable. The standard rafter attaches to the compression ring with a metal pin.

Colorado Yurt Tensioning Cable

The main cable of the yurt is 3/16”galvanized aircraft cable, encased in a protective covering. It has a break strength of 4200 pounds. There’s an embedded brass fitting with a keeper screw, in the end of each rafter. This screw closes the notch and secures the rafter to the cable.
