Innovative seating riser system expands elbow room for CFL spectators
Certifications:
Benefitting Commonwealth Stadium and its powerhouse Canadian Football League, Sightline Commercial Solutions provided an innovative new seating riser system that enhances the spectator experience. Commonwealth Stadium in Edmonton, Alberta is home to the 2015 CFL champions. Stadium seats in two main sections (total size of each section being about 1,790 square feet) were permanently removed for the 2016 season and replaced with a customized version of Sightline Commercial Solutions’ all-aluminum SC97 platform system. By implementing these specialized viewing decks, the physical “assigned” space for a single spectator was increased from around 4.5 square feet to an average of 8 square feet. For each of the upgraded seating sections, where there used to be around 300 tightly packed seats, there are now seven levels of completely open viewing decks measuring an average of 5.5 feet wide x 44 feet long. And far short of making any sort of labor-intensive renovations, the concrete tiers where the seats once stood are now simply covered by custom-fit modular platforms constructed using high-strength, weather-resistant structural aluminum.
