An atrium marquee is a temporary or semi-permanent covering structure designed for building atriums, open courtyards, or indoor void spaces. It is primarily used to expand usable space, provide shelter from sun and rain, and enhance aesthetic appeal. Below is a detailed overview of its features, applications, and advantages.

I. Key Features

1. Excellent Light Transmission

The roof is often made of high-strength PVC tarpaulin or polycarbonate (PC) panels, allowing ample natural light and reducing the need for artificial lighting.

2. Customizable Design

Tailored to fit the shape of the atrium (square, round, polygonal, etc.), with spans ranging from 5 to 50 meters to suit various architectural layouts.

3. Quick Installation & Dismantling

Modular components enable fast assembly and disassembly without disrupting existing building functions. >4. Climate Adaptability

Provides wind, rain, and sun protection. Some models include insulation layers for year-round comfort.

5. Aesthetic Integration

Modern designs with transparent or semi-transparent materials blend seamlessly with building styles, enhancing visual openness.

II. Typical Applications

· Hotel/Shopping Mall Atriums

Covering open areas to create all-weather spaces for events (e.g., weddings, exhibitions, cafés).

· Corporate/School Courtyards

Extending indoor areas for meetings, lounges, or sports facilities.

· Heritage Building Protection

Providing non-intrusive shelter for historical courtyards, balancing preservation and utility.

· Temporary Exhibitions/Events

Quickly setting up pop-up venues in museums, art centers, or public spaces.

III. Core Advantages

1. Cost-Effectiveness

Up to 50% lower cost than traditional glass roofs, with minimal regulatory approvals required.

2. Energy Efficiency & Eco-Friendliness

Natural lighting reduces artificial illumination; some fabrics reflect UV rays, lowering cooling costs.

3. Functional Expansion

Transforms underutilized courtyards into functional spaces, increasing site utility and commercial value.

4. Mobility & Adaptability

Non-permanent structures allow easy relocation, ideal for rentals or short-term needs.

IV. Optional Features & Considerations

· Enhanced Configurations

Sidewall systems (glass, mesh), HVAC integration, intelligent shading, lighting systems.

· Safety Compliance

Must meet local wind/snow load standards; larger marquees require drainage and fire safety measures.

· Maintenance Requirements

Regular cleaning of fabric, inspection of steel connections, and reinforcement before extreme weather

V. Comparison with Traditional Fixed Structures
