Construction height
Construction height of the grandstand – total height of the structure for visibility, statics and approval
What is the structural height of a grandstand?
The structural height is the total vertical extent of the grandstand from the base to the top edge of the uppermost seating level – or, in the case of covered grandstands, to the highest point of the roof. It influences the structural requirements (wind load), the appearance, and potentially the permitting process.
Construction height and planning at Bender
Bender optimizes the structural height for each project. Greater height improves the C-value and visual quality, but increases structural engineering complexity and wind resistance. Bender finds the optimal compromise between visual quality, structural integrity, and cost-effectiveness. The structural height is documented in the installation plan and the stability analysis.
The height is relevant for approval.
Stricter requirements apply to temporary structures above certain heights. Bender is familiar with the relevant thresholds and designs grandstands in such a way as to avoid unnecessary permitting hurdles.
Construction height and wind load
The surface area exposed to wind increases with height. Bender calculates the wind load for the actual construction height and dimensions the bracing accordingly.
