Becket Lacing
A lacing procedure used to join the fabric panels
together. The procedure requires aligning the
sewn in grommets of one fabric panel with the
sewn-in becket laces of another panel. Each lace
is pulled through the corresponding grommet as
well as the preceding lace loop. Becket lacing is a
strong but flexible method of attachment that
helps mitigate the effects of wind and load stress
on the fabric panels.
