Abstract

An inflatable shelter having a plurality of sections wherein each section has a series of inflatable arched tubes that are arranged parallel to each other and in successive tangential abutting contact. Adjacent tubes in each section are interconnected along their abutting surfaces. Each section has a cover that overlies such section and provides means for securing the sections together and to the adjoining ground against movement. End flaps are connected to the shelter to fully enclose such shelter.
