Abstract

A containment system employs a pair of spaced webs and a cord which is laced through grommets mounted to the webs for adjusting the effective dimensions of the containment panels at the work site. Panels are connectable in end-to-end fashion wherein a panel flap extends between the panels with each of the panels being fastened to a support cable, so that there is no containment gap between panels of the containment system.
