| Commission London Olympics - 2012 Main Stadium Seating Capacity – 80,000 reducing to 25,000 |
||
|
Our Scope – We have been appointed by Team Stadium (a conglomerate formed to deliver the London 2012 Olympic Main Stadium which consists of AAYH, HOK Sports Venue, Sir Robert McAlpine and Buro Happold) to address the complex exercise of technical space, cable pathway and structured cabling provision for the Main Olympic Stadium. As part of Team Stadium we are working closely with a number of organisations including the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA), London Organising Committee for the Olympic Games LOCOG and Olympic Broadcasting Services (OBS) in delivering a World class venue fit for hosting the London 2012 Olympics.
Interesting Facts – The Stadium will feature a 20m-high 'fabric wrap' that will encircle the 900m circumference of the Stadium. Artists are being commissioned to create a large mural that will be projected on to the wrap. The Stadium is to be provisioned with 2 Server rooms, and 19 satellite communications rooms. The media attendance during the games is second to none with an anticipated TV, press and radio attendance of over 20,000 people per day. To put some perspective on that statement the Arsenal Emirates Stadium can cater for 290 TV, press and radio personal. The games will involve the biggest mobilisation of equipment and personal in peace time.
