Temporary Structures Engineer
Set within the iconic grounds of Melbourne Park, this project involved certifying a large temporary structure built for a major sporting event. The structure featured a fabric-covered truss roof and an extensive raised deck system supporting the space above. With large crowds expected, every part of the build had to be engineered to handle the loads, the weather and the demands of a busy live event. Brushwood's role was to check the design and construction at each stage, giving councils, organisers and the public confidence that the structure was safe to use.
Keeping the bass drops and the big crowds firmly in check with festival stages and a two-storey viewing platform built for Pitch.
