The AZM is an inflatable, modular tent. In the length of 41 ft, it consists of 3 sections (modules) which are connected by zippers (tent skin), locking pins (inflatable frame) and hook-and-loop fasteners (Velcro, flooring). Additional central sections (module 2, center) can be added to increase the length of the tent by steps of 15.75 ft up to 56.75 ft, 72.5 ft and so on. Minimum length is 25.25 ft and is built with front and rear module only.
Each module consists of 3 load bearing parts: first the tent skin with integrated textile flooring, second the inflatable air beams with attached inflatable spacers and third the foldable aluminum tubes as additional spacers at the longitudinal sides. The textile covering is attached to the inflatable system by means of Velcro. The modules are delivered pre-assembled, only the aluminum tubes must be fitted during erection. The modules are assembled in the field.
