Engineering Services Via Awning Composer

At Trivantage®, we are committed to providing solutions that make a difference. That’s why we are excited to announce our Awning Composer team is now offering access to professional engineers for awning or shade sail projects that require stamped CAD drawings or engineering letters of approval.


Our new tool will assist engineers in all 50 U.S. states in providing the technical information needed for them to run load calculations on their projects. Participants can submit an engineering request with the details of the project and our engineer will examine the information and work with our team to create a quote, which will be forwarded by email. Once approved, our engineer will get to work on the project.

 

Our base service includes:


  • Web-based form to create, view, and edit engineering requests on PCs, tablets, and smartphones
  • Intelligent script that asks questions tailored specifically to projects, with examples to help provide correct responses
  • Ability to attach renderings, frame drawings, and attachment details to each request
  • Online status to track the progress of requests

 

We also offer other engineering services for an additional cost, such as rendering of awning or shade sail superimposed on picture of building or site; standalone image of awning frame or shade sail with dimensions and attachment details; and ANSI D 24” x 36” CAD drawing with multiple elevation views, dimensions, and attachment details.


For details on this exciting new Awning Composer service, visit our dedicated page for a simple, three-step process to start an engineering request. You also can call us at 1-800-226-8275 or submit your question via our Contact Us page.

Video Updates from Trivantage

We would like to share two video updates with you: Awning Composer™, our ultimate software solution for awning fabricators, and a final message from IFAI Expo on how, after all we’ve collectively managed in the last two years, there’s nothing quite like being together.


Awning Composer is an easy-to-use rendering software designed to move projects to production in half the time. As Mark Stiver, Director of eCommerce for Trivantage explains in this video, the idea is as simple as the promise: Instead of asking customers to imagine an awning, the software allows you to show it to them.


We value your input, which is why our customer care teams stand ready to help you every step of the way. As sales representative Hofler Williams noted at the Expo, let’s continue to work together to build our partnership.


To see how Trivantage is committed to exceptional service, hassle-free ordering, and having the largest inventory and product availability for the industries we serve, please contact your sales representative, shop on trivantage.com, or call us at 800-786-1876.
