North Stand Construction Discussion

[LeonardoDaVnci]

Todays fly around , also looking for feedback if anyone is interested in a raffle for a brand new drone (rrp £449) for £2 per ticket as i have been given one to test so any profit made will go to a charity of the winners choice.

If you just post the 'instructions' re buying raffle tickets I'm sure it will be a flyer, pun intended. Thank you for all the videos, they are very compelling and strangely relaxing. I have no experience of construction but thanks to you and @ssskies I've learnt that people who do work in it must have the patience of a saint, jeezuz them sails have been lying around for months...

I’m guessing fan zone roof steel cross beams will be connected to the square steel brackets?

They are probably self-cleaning gkass windows?

Google AI.

Hotels use self-cleaning windows with a special coating that breaks down dirt using UV light and washes it away with rain. This technology uses either a photocatalytic process to break down organic dirt or a hydrophilic coating to cause water to sheet across the glass, taking dirt with it, reducing the need for manual cleaning and maintenance.

They'll still need cleaned. Just a bit less often.

I know.

I’ve been to up Beetham tower on numerous occasions to take pictures of the skyline, and sometimes the windows are filthy.

The sails will deflect most of it. The low block facade.

A different prospective on just how it will look at night with all the different lighting and reflections from the hotel windows, can you imagine when it's finished, it will look absolutely stunning.
Cheers @ssskies for another fantastic video.

Sat and watched this with my missus (hopeless romantic you see) and there are some awesome shots there. Camera's crystal clear too you can pretty much see the individual seats. City square coming on and the new stand looking great now more of the seats are in
