North Stand Construction Discussion

[Stockton Heath Blue]

Coldplay, Muse, Foofighters & Stone Roses were all stage at the North Stand

 

[Coatigan]

I was at the gig, i would have sworn the stage was at the south stand :)

You must have been wonderwalled out your nut, Sally!

Spurs.

Looking at stadium plan, the access tunnel is at the other end of the stadium next to the away end.

 

[dave the pie]

Oasis, stone roses, robbie williams (dont ask), all had stage at north end.

 

[Gordyola]

Oasis wasn't

Oasis when I saw them at the Etihad was definitely at the North Stand

If you are looking toward the stage its to the left at the same end as the stage.

Todays look about, large roof sheets being fitted by traditional methods!

 

[Gordyola]

Looks like insulation is only towards the top and localised
These were the panels we watched being extruded onsite at SE corner a few months ago

The grey racks are stillages for the glazing

 

[Agueroooooooooooo]

No doubt a stupid question and no doubt been asked before but why don't they cover all the roofs in Solar Panels?

Presumably because insulation further down the roof towards the pitch wouldn't actually do any insulating?

 

[Goatmeal]

How did the fat **** get on the roof?

Weight issues I think, especially with the E & W roofs as the cable net wasn't designed for it. Top of the spirals have them (or will) and I think the top of the hotel & commercial building. The academy/training complex is replete with them.

No slates and roofing felt?

I would say more for acoustic performance and/or noise reduction from rain.

It's only for shade now due to climate change, as we no longer get rain :)

Apologies , have just read it is for the top part only. This be for thermal performance.

Nice to see the cherry pickers have now gone off the roof and the Perspex is now going in.Expect the roof cladding will be done very soon. On a side note I thought there might insulation going in first because they had to remove that off the existing roof. But probably the acoustics are better without it.

I saw this on the ground weeks back , presumably for the roof if not where ?

Thatch would have been better for the environment

Spurs’ double pitch arrangement means that they can bring truck into the pitch when required.
We have the same problem at SJP, the stage is at the Gallowgate end, where as the tunnel access is at the Leazes end. Everything has to be hand balled to the opposite side.
