North Stand Construction Discussion

[Centurions]

I assume that this design is no longer possible given the new single tier upper level in the NS extension? (Although I note that all 4 corners have been left blank)

The open corners may be to allow air/wind for the grass?

Hard to say off the back of one image, but I don't think it is no longer possible. The two blocks sides would probably need to happen simultaneously, but the way the north and south roofs are built/being built, I don't see it as being impossible myself.

Quickly off topic.

The new roof on the Anfield Road expansion is leaking.

When it’s pissing down I sometimes get a drip on me in SSL3.

The job would be done a whole lot quicker if the buggers didn't take time off to watch the match !

The slab edge is stepping out in two directions on the Commercial building, we didn't have this on the hotel. We have corbels on the side of the columns as well as the cantilever beams......it makes a very interesting fixing detail for quite a lot of large diameter bars to interface with each other supporting the columns and floors aboveView attachment 142228

Bloody hell so it does, I never consciously noticed that. Well there you go.

(If by that you presumably mean the side opposite the square also cantilevering out as below)

My reference model isn't quite upto date but there is a small slab edge cantilever at level 2 which then steps out further at Level 03, on the Hotel side we have those beams doing all of the work where on the commercial side its just those corbels one way and beams the other...

Yeah that's the one I meant. I just never really properly noticed that step, that's all. Goes to show how much extra complexity there is in this one.

Is that not the away end? May have created a leak purposely so them rag fans feel at home.
