A Rapidly Deployable Shade Structure

PVC shade is a structure that is made up of very simple components to provide easy shading. It only consist of 3 cyclinders and 3 sockets to form the basis of the modular structure which is then integrated with a layer of perspex, before multiplying to form the shape desired. The materials is made out of PVC, making it easily accesible and recycable. Once the triangle form is made, the triangles are brought together with just a plastic recycled clip which can be done by any individuals. The design is not restricted by the size and can be manipulated to provide a space for an individual or for 100. A square has a 1x1 metre dimension and is made up of 4 triangles.
I really need to practice more on my presentation skills.
