TIERED LIGHT WEIGHT DEMOUNTABLE MODULAR GRANDSTAND SEATING SYSTEM SPECIFICATIONS

The Grandstand structure comprises a system of frames welded with interlocking system, ties, braces, beam & deck units that lock together to form a quick erect, structural support system.

Typical frames with height of 1.00m are linked together to provide a support structure that has a slope of variable riser heights in accordance with each project design, into which the deck units are installed to provide a continuous terraced platform surface.

Seat and balustrade units are fixed to the terraced platform decks to provide a safe secure interlocking seating area.

• Location of spectators, capacity, sightlines, entry and exit position
• Access considerations such as: Stairs, Vomitories, Transverse Aisles, Ramps & accommodations for disabled people

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

The following are typical generic specifications which are varied, in accordance with each specific design brief, which can and is altered to suit each project specification.

MATERIALS

The following are typical generic specifications which are varied in accordance with each specific design brief.

• Truss
  Each truss T4 support 4 rows of 4 seat spacing between rows is 750mm. Truss 3.0m length, hot dipped galvanised high tensile strength steel tube. The structure is fully welded to produce a rigid framework. Frames are inter-locked together horizontally.

• Post-Ledger-Brace
  They are constructed from hot dipped galvanised high tensile strength steel pipe diameter 48.3mm x 3.2mm with locking pins.

• Deck Units (Platform)
  Deck units (platform) are made of 12mm thick anti-slip phenolic film faced-plywood. The plywood is supported and bolted on 3 units SHS 28mm x 38mm x 3mm thick. When installed in the grandstand, deck units are captive with the frame cleats and provided self-interlocking system. Alternative galvanised steel decks are available.

• Base Jacks
  Base Jacks are constructed from 38mm diameter thick hot dipped galvanised steel bar with a base plate 150mm x 150mm x 6mm. Base Jacks may be incorporated to provide for a maximum total adjustment range of which ensures that the structure is capable of being used safety on virtually any ground contour.

• Seat Units
  Steel framed seat units are fixed to the frame units with integral hooks and are locked onto the frame with a hidden locking bolt. The seat units when not in use are designed so that they nest intimately together to provide extremely compact storage. Seats are made of U.V. stabilised polypropylene with bright and smooth appearance. 3 type of seats:
