How flexible is corrugated PVC sheet?

[TicklyT]

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to form corrugated sheet into a curve 'lengthways', like the sections of a Nissen hut, without it buckling?

I'm looking at making a sort of awning projecting about a Metre from a wall. It would span about 3.5 Metres, and I am looking at trying to put about about a 3 Metre radius curve on it.

I feel the answer is: No, it can't be done.

No, you can't even get it to bend slightly i'm afraid. You would have to use flat UV acrylic or solid poly.

Thanks for the info. That's saved me buying a sheet, then spending the rest of the day sweeping up shards of shattered plastic!

Off now to sketch up the Mk II version....
