Support points E, F, G, and H in air, secure corners to ground. Support mid-line FE and remaining corners in air on Lee side.įolding in Thirds - measure or 'estimate' fold marks by folding tarp so the ends overlap, then adjust the amount of 'over fold' until there is no spare material left that isn't overlapped. Secure an edge (AB or CD) to ground on Windward side. Secure spread edge to ground, and repeat process in the opposite direction with other trailing edge. Move an edge lying on the ground (AB or CD) away from the mid-line EF, until the fabric is taut, and the edge begins to lift from the ground. Support mid-line EF in air, low enough that the 4 corners A, B, C, D lie loosely on the ground. Secure hanging corners to ground on Windward side.

Support free corners in air, on Lee side.įold in Half. Secure lower half to ground, with fold on Windward side. In most Real Life cases, the fold line will depend on the amount of ground cover required. Note Grommets will stop the fold being perfect.įold shown at Half-way mark. This will help to 'square up' wall corners. Secure folded material to one side of the Tub floor 'wall'. The diagonal creases in the corner squares will allow spare material to fold 'bellows' style, into flaps that can point inside or outside of the walls of the Tub floor. Make diagonal folds in the corner squares, with the fold line coming in from the outermost corner.įold up the 'walls' of the Tub floor. In the 4 corners of the tarp, the crease lines will overlap, making corner squares.

This will become the line at which the groundsheet ceases to be the 'floor', and becomes the 'wall' of the tub floor. The reinforced grommets in the corners will interfere with the folding plan, but there should be enough flex in the tarp to make the folds 'near enough'.Ībout 6 inches (15 cm) in from all 4 sides of the tarp, make a crease line. Turn a groundsheet into a Tub Floor, by folding the corners in a certain way. Create a more comfortable living space by attaching a Mosquito Net to the edges of the Tub floor with clothes pegs.

This design helps keep things tidy and dry. Secure corners A, B, C, and D to ground with rope. Use pole with rounded object on tip to avoid damage to tarp. Support 4 corners in air to make a weather shed. Support 2 corners of opposite side in air on Lee side. Secure 2 corners of one side to ground on Windward side. Lay tarp on ground and secure 4 corners for easy to clean living surface. Crosshairs show Midpoint, short lines are Mid-sides. Template for designs using Square Tarps (10' x 10'). If well-defined ridges are needed, use either ridgepoles, or taut ropes. NOTE - If using the Mushroom model, the rooflines from the centre pole to the tarp corners will vary in curvature depending on whether or not the tarp is a 'plastic' poly-tarp, or is a 'fabric' rip-stop nylon fly.
