INTRODUCTION

The NAVI-TRAC LT can be configured as a Hip End, Gabled End,  
Hex End or Clearspan unit, as described below:

30’ NAVI-TRAC LT HIP END UNITS

The 30’ wide NAVI-TRAC LT frame configuration is based on the 
hip roofed square tent shown at right.  Hip bars connect corners 
to the peak, and rafters connect eave bars to the peak.  The 
square tent can be extended into a rectangle by adding 10’ or 15’ 
bays consisting of parallel beams connected to the hip ends and 
to each other by ridge bars, purlins, and eave bars. 

30’ NAVI-TRAC LT GABLED END UNITS (AND HIP-GABLED & HEX-GABLED UNITS)

The 30’ LT can also be supplied and installed as a gabled end tent  consisting of a series of parallel beams intercon-
nected by ridge bars, purlins and eave bars (see the Appendix I).  

The hip end, gabled end & hex end versions of 

the LT are guyed units

 that depend on staked, ratcheted guy webs at legs and corners for their stability.  All three ver-

sions are supplied with uprights adjustable from 8 ft to 10 ft high, with the gabled end unit requiring at least one bay of 
X-cabling.

30’ NAVI-TRAC LT CLEARSPAN (CS) UNITS (Gabled End Configuration only)

By adding appropriate additional X-cabling, and hinged Base Plates, the 30’ NAVI-TRAC LT can be converted into the 
30 ft NAVI-TRAC CS, a clearspan unit which is installed without external guy webs (see Appendix 2).
