Y-Shape Shade Structure
A distinctive Y-column solar carport delivering wide canopy coverage from a single central support, engineered for single and double parking configurations across the UAE and Middle East.
The Y-Shape Shade Structure uses a single central column with a bifurcated Y-arm canopy, minimising the number of foundation points while covering a double parking bay. The I-section main frame with epoxy paint finish and pre-galvanised C-profile purlins deliver structural reliability with a distinctive architectural profile. The standard 5° tilt angle supports all standard PV module types in both landscape and portrait orientations.
The Y-Shape configuration is particularly suited to sites with restricted ground access, underground infrastructure, or where minimising column footprint is a design requirement. It has been installed at commercial and government facilities across the UAE. Optional selections include hot-dip galvanised structure, aluminium mounting rails (AA6063-T6), EV charging station integration, and LED lighting.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the advantage of the Y-Shape column design?
- The Y-Shape uses a single central column with a bifurcated arm, reducing the number of foundation points required while covering a double parking bay. This is particularly useful on sites with underground infrastructure, restricted ground access, or where minimising column footprint is a design requirement.
- Is a hot-dip galvanised finish available?
- Yes, hot-dip galvanised (HDG) structure is available as an optional selection in place of the standard epoxy paint finish, providing enhanced long-term corrosion resistance.
- Can the Y-Shape support EV charging equipment?
- Yes, EV charging station integration is available as an optional selection. The structure can be specified with cable management provisions and mounting points for EV charging units.
