THE ASK
When Charles M. Schulz–Sonoma County Airport added six new flights to its service schedule, it needed an additional gate and passenger holding area to keep pace with the increased air service. Airport stakeholders wanted a spacious, durable building solution that could be delivered quickly and cost-effectively.
HOW SPRUNG DELIVERED
Within just 19 days, Sprung delivered and built an innovative structure made with our patented tensioned membrane technology. Measuring 137,250 square feet, the building is large enough to house two and a half football fields or 122 Model 3 sedans. The Model 3 assembly line was constructed simultaneously inside the sprawling Sprung building, enabling production to start while the structure itself was being finished. Built at a fraction of the cost of conventional construction, the structure provided a perfect solution to Tesla’s production line expansion.
