The Adelaide Oval is one of the newest stadiums in Australia, and was conceived to be a major Australian sporting and entertainment hub by the Government of SA. This dream has been realised with major football, cricket and music events being staged there.
The Adelaide Oval puts South Australia on show to the world. Attracting up to 53,000 visitors at anyone event, all building and electrical materials used needed to be of the highest possible standard for strength, safety and quality.
EzyStrut’s products undergo regular checking during manufacture, and are tested to a 3:1 safety factor with results generally independently verified. This meant that the project engineers at the Adelaide Oval were safe in their decision to choose EzyStrut to support the electrical installation around many thousands of people.
Product quality and appearance was also important to the contractors for the Adelaide Oval: The Architect’s design uses a significant amount of white and coloured lighting effects, and it was decided that exposed electrical installations would also form a part of this: Hence exposed cable trays were not only made to specific visual standards physically, but also had their powder coating colour matched to be an effective component of the overall design.
The project was constructed in multiple stages, and because of site storage requirements for the contractors, needed to be supplied flexibly and on an ad-hoc basis. This was no problem for the EzyStrut logistics team who were able to supply products when needed with little notice.
