Challenges

Demolition of the 2 existing roof hanging video and scoreboard structures. As these were hanging from the roof and not supported from the ground the demolition was very complex as sections were needed to be cut and then lowered to the ground whilst maintaining the structural integrity of the rest of the hanging structure. All works were completed whilst the stadium was still operational

Physical scale of the screen/structure and the extremely tight and limited access for plant and equipment. As the screen sites under the roof of the stand it was extremely tight working with cranes to get the head room needed to rig and install structure sections. This was accounted for in our design of the structure, making it possible to install
