All structures, from skyscrapers and stadiums to modest houses and mobile homes, have limitations to the amount of weight and wind load they can bear, so it’s important to note that Earthworks Tipis have not been engineered for snow and wind loads.

It is important to install your structure according to our instructions. The fabric skin or membrane on a fabric structure should be stretched and attached with the proper hardware at all the points provided to minimize fabric movement. Excessive fabric movement, or “wind whip” causes wear and tear on the fabric, and it can cause the framework of the structure to become misshapen and unsound.
