Membrane rain shelters

Membrane rain shelters can serve entrances, paths or activity spaces. Explain their relationship with buildings, roads and users before selecting a form, to define a sensible scope.

Freestanding shelters require coordination on every side, building-side shelters require checks of connections and openings, and continuous shelters require careful transitions. Select the arrangement around site functions.
