Military Shelter

For a Versatile Military Shelter That Can Be Quickly Deployed Anywhere in the World, Choose a Fabric Structure from Big Top

Since 1979, Big Top has had the good fortune to serve our U.S. Military by providing temporary shelters that can be used by armed forces in myriad ways and can be quickly deployed to American bases all over the globe. Our shelters can be built to nearly any size and are fully customizable for a variety of uses. For instance, a military shelter from Big Top is perfect as a large area maintenance shelter (LAMS), aircraft hangar or sunshade, chow or mess hall, guard shack, vehicle inspection shelter, storage facility, barracks, and much more.

A Versatile Design

Not only can a military shelter from Big Top be decked out for variety of uses, it is also mobile by design. Our fabric structures are convenient to ship, can be moved around the base intact using rails or a crane, and can anchor to nearly any type of foundation, including shipping containers, ecology blocks, and asphalt. Plus, because our shelters are temporary, they won’t count against the available square footage of your base.

Protection for Your Staff, Materials, and Equipment

A military shelter from Big Top features a translucent fabric roof that will illuminate the interior with sunlight, minimizing the need for artificial lighting, and also repels 99.95 percent of harmful UV-A and UV-B radiation. This will protect your materials, prolong the lifespan of your equipment’s electronics, and maintain a pleasant interior temperature that is, on average, 15 degrees cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter for the comfort of your personnel.

Optional Add-Ons

Big Top can include a range of accessories with your military shelter to meet your needs. These can include an HVAC system, flooring, doors, lightning protection, and additional engineering for climates with heavy wind and snow weather patterns.
