elvenprince Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 The query is more to do with the fact you haven't given us any specifics! You could be building a stage 1m off the ground, or 10m; unbraced or tied off, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seano Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 I found this in Celine dion's world tour..You can click for see the image Is the stage in your photo definitely touring with the production? If so, I would guess it's probably Tait.It looks to me like its actually the 'house' stage in whatever arena they happen to be playing though. If so my guess is that it might be Sico "Roll'n'Set" - its good stuff but nobody in their right mind would take it on tour - too bulky, too heavy.

vitty67 Posted May 1, 2011 Author Share Posted May 1, 2011 I see the roll n set and it's ok I I'll give you another picture more clearly why I believe that we have not got enough http://www.sceneethique.com/files/IMAGES/CELINE/TAKING_CHANCES_CELINE_TOUR_STAGE_IN_SEDF_STUDIO_op_720x540.jpg another question do you think for an under-the stage and make better use of roll'n stage or another type of material ?? Then can you suggest me a engine for stage lift.... Thanks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brainwave-generator Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Steeldeck! There is nothing good about Steeldeck. Litedeck is actually more economical to hire since it takes less people to move it, and everything gets done quicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giles Favell Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Steeldeck! There is nothing good about Steeldeck. ....Er... not accurate or constructive. Steeldeck is very good at what it does. A 4 leg 8 x 4 is a 7.5kN/m2 deck (with a certified 1.5 safety factor on top of that!) which is nnecessary for a lot of uses (a Rep stage should have a 7.5kN/m2 floor loading, whereas it is only smaller theatres and studios that have 5kN/m2 stages. Opera Houses have the full 10kN.m2) the 6 legger easily achieves the 10kN/m2 (with the safety factor on top).... .... and of course rails have to be compliant - not only in their 'gaps' but in their strength (up to 3kN/m at 1100mm above floor level) - a rate that not even Steeldeck can take without modification - but they can take the 1.5kN/m rails - without the trusses buckling under the torsional loads - which I suspect the aluminium decks can't. So don't knock it just because it doesn't suit your particular purpose - an entire sub-industry has been built on it! All the best, Giles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, when doing stages now, I seldom see Steeldeck, most people just opt for a Layher structure instead, there are companies selling kit to modify standard Layher scaffold for staging use.
