Permits, insurance and planning
Tents over 646 sq ft (60 m²) need a building permit, and public or corporate events may be inspected. We provide engineered drawings and safety certificates for your application, and we can provide a certificate of insurance for venues that require one. On asphalt, interlock or other hard surfaces, we anchor tents with 400 lb cement weights. For example, a 40’x60′ tent needs 20 weights.
