Intro
Hassel Studios and Melbourne Food & Wine Festival required a platform system to go over the old Sandridge Bridge on the Yarra River which has not been achieved before.
The project suited the ring system really well because it allowed us to land on the prolongs across the bridge. This gave us access to then add a platform 26m long and 6.6m wide with counter lever frame system above to 5m high.
Solution
As well as a practical ring system solution, the visual result was spectacular, creating a unique space that looked like a large cloud. It was surrounded with misting effects giving a feeling of standing in the cloud itself. We added a wheel chair ramp and public access stairs.
