Detailed Yurt Specifications

 

The Alternative Buildings Yurt System was designed by an American aircraft designer. Great attention has been given to both function and form. The system has been engineered to be extremely resilient in a variety of adverse conditions, including high winds. While canvas yurts have a tendency to rot over time, our fiberglass yurts are not susceptible to the elements.

  • 200 mph Wind Rating: Our yurt system carries a 200 mph wind rating and has been given the Hurricane Impact Test.
  • ASTM Fire Resistance Ratings: The R-21 insulation is a first for the yurt industry.
  • Energy Star Compliant: We are proud to be an Energy Star Partner.
These illustrations show how the stress on the roof is measured using wind load simulation software.
