Dome tents slope gently in all directions from the peak enabling pretty near the entire height to link be usable for a exorbitant portion of the tent |
|---|
| Tunnel tents have a gnarly usable height along the center line |
| Frame and cabin tents have gently sloping roofs and near vertical walls |
| To fully evaluate the usable interval in a tent, both the maximum wall height and slope must be considered.There are four useful heights given to to evaluate appropriate tent height: lie down only, sit, kneel, stand. |
The basic dome disappointment a rectangular mat and two poles which cross at the peak; each pole runs in a smooth curve from different basement corner, up to the peak, and then down to the diagonally opposite bottom corner. There are above all characteristic fittings at each corner which fit into sockets at the ends of each pole - pole tension keeps everything in shape.
