Attn: Building Official
I have reviewed plans for two temporary structures that will be erected by the Port Townsend Film
Festival for the duration of the Festival, on Friday, September 25 through Sunday, September 27.
I have performed some rough wind load calculations and concluded that the structures should be safe in
average wind conditions of wind speeds of 5— 15 mph.
For the Entry Archway, I recommend that two 60# sand bags be placed on each of the two "feet", for a
total of 4 sand bags on the structure,rather than one on each"foot"as shown in the drawing.
Furthermore, for the sake of safety the structure should be removed or laid down on the ground for the
duration of any periods of time when winds greater than 20 mph are forecast.
For the Eiffel Tower, I recommend that two 60# sand bags be placed on each of the four"feet", for a
total of 8 sand bags on the structure, rather than one on each"foot" as shown in the drawing.
Furthermore, for the sake of safety the structure should be removed or laid down on the ground for the
duration of any periods of time when winds greater than 30 mph are forecast.
The film festival folks tell me that the outdoor movie screen must be taken down in conditions of 30
mph winds, so it would be no problem to remove these two structures in those circumstances.
If you have any questions about the above,please do not hesitate to call me. If you have further
recommendations that will assist in assuring the public safety,please let me know.

I have reviewed calculations prepared by Ryan Tillman for the inflatable screen that will be erected by
the Port Townsend Film Festival for the duration of the Festival, on Friday, September 25 through
Sunday, September 27.
I have concluded that the wind load calculations are valid and that they comply with the provisions of
the current building code, the 2006 IBC.
I would like to point out three provisions that Mr. Tillman called out on his calculations, and emphasize
that these provisions must be followed:
1. Lower the airscreen at wind speeds above 19—24 mph.
2. Cordon off the area inside the guy rope anchoring points, and do not allow members of the
public into this area.
3. Audience setback 32'from base of frame.
If you have any questions about the above, please do not hesitate to call me. If you have further
recommendations that will assist in assuring the public safety, please let me know.

HARKNESS HALL.
AIRSCREEN INSTALLATION GUIDE ,
Please read these installation instructions carefully BEFORE attempting to install
your Harkness Hall AIRSCREEN.Before commencing inflation,ensure that all
items and personnel required to complete the installation are available.
Adhering to the procedures set out in this guide will ensure a safe and successful
installation.
GENERAL INFORMATION
• The Airscreen should not be operated in wind speeds over Beaufort 5(19-24mph/30-38kph)i
this is when the tree tops are waving vigorously in the wind.
• Always cordon off the area inside the guy rope anchoring points and do not allow any
members of the public within this area.
• The first row of the audience should be the height of the frame plus 2 mars/6'5'away from the frame.
Thus if the frame is 10 mtrs 132'6'high,the fast row of seats should be positioned
12 mtrs/39'back.
• If using water containers as ballast,water can often be supplied by arrangement with the local fire brigade.
• If the system is being used at an event over several days,then it is recommended to deflate the system
at the end of each screening.
When deflating and inflating,it is recommended to put a ground sheet between the screen and the ground
to protect the screen surface from dirt and sharp objects.
• Fire certificates for the screen surface can be found in Harkness Halls surface data sheets,which are
available on our website or by request from the office. The frame material is industrial PVC,like that used
'on curtain-sided lorries
Harkness Half have endeavoured to investigate all regulation rega"i the use of the Airscreen.We have found no specific
regulation relating to the use of this screen;however we cannot take responsibility if Uwe are any such regulations in the
country you intend to operate the system in Therefore,it is the responsibelrty of the user to be aware of regulations and to
abide by these. Harkness Half will not accept responsibility for failure to meet kxal regulations.

1-3 tonnes of ballast weight for each corner depending on screen size,or ground fixings capable of taking
the strain(seeTablel page l)
1 UNPACKING
Place the frame on ground and remove the strap.(Item L)
2 LAYING OUT
Unroll the frame,ensuring there is enough space to lay the frame flat out.
Unfold the system section by section;stop when it is simply folded in half.
There should be a Harkness Hall label on the side of the underneath section on the right as you look at the frame.
(You have to lift the upper layer up to be able to locate the logo). If not then the system is the wrong way up and
you will need to turn it over This can be done by dragging the system over itself from right to left
Now check that the logo is on the right-hand side(as you look at the system)of the underneath section.When
erected,the logo is on the front of the frame on the right near the base of the frame.
3 FIXING THE VENT HOLE COVERS
On each side of theframe there are 2 vent holes;one is at the top of the frame and one is at the bottom.The
pump can go either side of the bottom of the frame;decide which side you wish to use. For the purpose of these
instructions we are using the left4und side of the frame(as you are looking at it)for the pump.
Using the vent hole covers(kern 8),seat the two top vent holes and the bottom one not being used. Peel the flaps
back,place the cover over the hole,and ensure that it is secured and flat;fur in place by putting the flaps back over
the top of the covers and securing in place.
4 FIXING THE VENT CONNECTORS
Attach the vent connector(Item C)to the preferred vent hole in the same way as attaching the vent hole covers.
The bottom vent hole,which is not going to be used,should have.been covered at stage 3.
On the vent connectors there Is a seams this seam aunt be lined up so it faces downwards,towards the bottom of
the frame.
k.is important to fa the vent connector in place as described,errs a"the sears is in the correct position. If it is
in the wrong posrdon when the kwm Inflates the tube wig twist and prevent the air getting through;you need to
imagine how the frame%soli twist when it is inflated.

5 FIXING THE GROUND BORDER
This is usually left in place after the first installation.
Unfold the frame completely.
Unroll the black ground border(Item E),leaving the shiny side facing upwards.
Find the bottom centre eyelet of the frame;this is indicated by a white fine which is marked on the underside of the flap
the eyelets are fixed im Match this with the centre eyelet on the border.
Using the ground border lacing rope(Item F),lace the bottom of the border to the frame. Simply lace it over and
under.Ensure that the rope is pulled tight and knotted off at each end
The sides and the top of the ground border are attached to the screen using the screen ties(see below).
6 FIXING THE SCREEN SURFACE
The screen surface can be left in place if the Airscreen is used regularly,if it is not going to be used within_t month,
then remove it completely
Unroll the screen surface(Item G)in the centre of the frame with the projection surface upwards. See Figs.1 and
2 below.
Pt
Find the top centre eyelet of the screen surface and the top centre eyelet of the frame,indicated by a black strap
on the top edge of the frame. See Figure 3 above.
Secure the top of the screen working from the centre outwards using the screen ties.Pass loop end of tie through
frame eyelet from under;pass through corresponding screen eyelet from under;pass loop end back through frame
eyelet from above;pass loop end round hook end and pull loop back through the frame eyelet. See Figs 4.1 -4.4
Fig 1.1 Fig 41.

In the corners,do not necessarily match up the eyelets:.
just ensure that the screen is square in the space,see tgure 5.
Lace the sides starting at the top and workingdownwards to the
bottom of the screen.
Use the screen ties to lace the bottom of the screen to the top
of the ground border in the same waK
t•.
Now fold the frame back on itself lengthways so that the top covers
the bottom as in section 2. See Figure 6.
7 ATTACHING THE VENT TO THE PUMP
Pass the vent strap.(hem O)end through the holes in the open end of the vent connector tube.
Then feed the end.through the ratchet loosely. Put the When you are happy with the positioning,tighten the
vent connector open end over the pump nozzle. strap using the ratchet until you cannot pull the vent
Remember to ensure that the seam In the vent connector off. Ensure that it is tight since this will be
connector is at the bottom as detailed in Section 4. See taking the air pressure_when the pump is on. See
Figure 7. Figure 8.
It is vital to cover the fan ff the weather is wet outdoors to avoid the fan shorting out. Also do not turn on
its side as it may ingest grit or other material from the ground,whkh will damage it-
8 ATTACHING THE GUY ROPES
The guy ropes are attached to the orange crosses located at the top and bottom of the frame.
12m x 6m 139'x IT 6'frames and larger wilt have two orange crosses,one for the front guy rope and one for the
back the 8m x 4m 126'x 13'has only one fastening point for guy ropes.
Take one of the guy ropes(Item A and tie a knot in one end approx.1 metre(3'3")from the end.
Flatten the orange cross that is on the top of the frame.
Take the rope and feed the end with the knot through both parts of the cross leaving the knot about 30cm 1 12"
from the cross. Figs 9.1 -9.7
MENUMM-
Page 4
Tie the guy off with a figure of
eight knot,by feeding the end
thro
ugh
original knot.
Ensure that the knot is tied
towards the direction the rope
will be pulled,so that the rope
points towards the ballast
weight or ground fixing.
Note:two guy ropes are secured on each top comer,one facing the front and one facing the back of the frame.
On the small frame,use the same orange cross for both guy ropes;for the larger frames,use the separate orange
crosses to attach the front and rear guy ropes.
Repeat for the opposite top corner,ensuring that one knot faces the front and one to the back.
Repeat for the bottom corners.Eight guy ropes should now be secured
r
to the frame.
On the outside edge in the middle fold of the frame on either side
there is another cross,this is for the middle ropes(Item K).
Tie a middle rope to each side,in the same way as above,but with
just one rope on each side. See Figure 10.
These are only used to pull the middle of the Airscreen back during
deflation,ensuring that it folds back down in half.
U you need to reposition the Airscreen at this point,it is easiest to move it a Tittle at a time,rather than trying to
move it all at once.See Figures 11.1 -11.4
9 WEIGHTS/GROUND FIXING
Now the guy ropes are secured to the frame,we need to secure them to the ballast weights or ground fixings.
The position of the counterweights is important:this can be worked
out as follows in relation to frame height:
Each ballast weight is placed the frame height away
from the frame(front and rear)and a quarter of the
height outwards from the sides.
Once weights are in position,the guy rope must be
wrapped around it and secured See Figure 12.
Tie the top guy ropes off at their longest point to the ballast weight during inflation. Ideally you will need two persons
handling each of the four top guy ropes. (Refer to Table 1 page 1 of this guide).One person needs to feed rope to the
other who will release it as the frame inflates. It is very knportant not to take the full force of the weight on the
person;hold the rope indirectly and let the ballast weight take the strain..
The person feeding the rope to the second person must be ready to tie the rope off securely when the frame is fully
inflated.
Tie the bottom guy ropes off securely to the ballast weights.
Page 5
10 INFLATION
Inflation must be done with the frame folded in half and the top guy ropes tied off to the ballast containers at the
longest point. Get everyone in position. Turn on the airflow.
As the frame inflates,ensure that the top half does not slip back slightly. Pull it back into correct position if this
happens. See Figure 13.1 13.2.
d
Release the guy rope gradually keeping tension on the rope at all times. Check that the fold is always in the middle.
The frame will gradually rise.The people securing the frame from the back must not let too much rope out. Both
front and back ropes must be counterbalancing. The aim is to keep the top of the frame as near vertical over the
bottom as possible during inflation.
Once fully inflated,tie guy ropes off to ballast weights. The side ropes can be left hanging. Use knots(clove hitch)
that are secure but can be easily untied;this is important if the Airscreen needs to be deflated quickly.
11 DEFLATION
During deflation,the frame will be guided back in half as in the starting position.
To deflate the frame,ensure that there is nobody within the area in!Ude of t:ie batfast:.eights,a„d tt;al
there are people controlling the tension of the guy ropes front and rear and also at the side ropes.
There are two methods of deflation:
Controlled Deflation
Turn off the airflovv;this lets the Airscreen deflate in a controlled manner.
As the frame deflates,the front guy rope handlers should encourage the frame to fold back into the folded position. 1 he
top corners should come down on top of the bottom corners.Be careful not to let it tip onto its front during deflation.
The side ropes are used to encourage the centre to fold;they should be pulled from the back.See Figure 14.1 - 14.4
I -
I
Quick Deflation
In certain conditions(e.g.sudden strong wind) it may be necessary to deflate the
system quickly.
All guy rope handlers must be in position as above. Stop the airflow and remove
the bottom vent cover completely.The frame will deflate rapidly so be careful.
This method is not recommended in normal weather conditions.
Remove all other vent hole covers completely to allow air to escape. Encourage !"
all remaining air out of the frame before attempting to pads it.See Figure 15.
Page 6
12. RE-PACKING
The system can be packed away in two ways:
With screen and ground border in place
• Remove all guy ropes,and tidy away neatly.
• Fold the frame lengthways in half,(top over bottom)and repeat again.
Then fold left edge to the middle point and the right edge to the middle point Fold again lengthways
in half. Now the frame is ready to be rolled up.
Make sure that all the air is out of the inflatable frame and roll the system up.
• Once in a neat bundle,secure with strap(hen Q,pladng black circular protective patch(Item M)
between the frame and the ratchet
Without screen
If the system is going to be stored for more than 1 month,or if the screw surface is wet,then it must be removed
and allowed to Cry.and then be carefully packed onto a tube without any folds in it for storage.The ground border
can be left in the frame.
Remove all 9W ropes,and tkfy rway neatt$
• Open out the frame completely on its back.
Carefully remove all screen ties from the screen and frame.and store together.
• Roll screen onto a tube for safe storage,ensuring it is dry.
} Unlace the ground border if you wish and fold away for storage.
• Fold the frame back in half(top over bottom).
• Fold the middle sections of the side of the frame onto the main section of the frame,so
that the frame is one rectangular piece. Fold the entire frame in half one more time(still full width).
Then fold left edge to the middle point and the right edge to the middle point Fool this
completely in half,lengthways.
Now the frame is ready to be rolled. Make sure that all the air is out of the frame.Roll the system
• Once in.a neat bundle,secure with strap(Item L),placing black circular protective patch(Item M)
between the frame and the ratchet
Please note that there is no single correct way to pack the frame away. As you use the system you will
develop your own method. The only vital thing is to remove the screen surface if the system is not going to
be used for more than 1 month or if the screen surface is wet
