Stage topped out. Pretty clear loft and head block beam layout. (Lower beam pockets for shop combo black box roof.) Wall top at 52'. Also front fill speaker niches at stage edge.
Actually this is why I'm enjoying what I'm doing right now. Getting to discuss layouts and tweak little things here and there AND getting to interface with the GC's and EC's who have never built a theatre before... I's kind of fun. except when it's not.Seeing this stuff always makes me interested in wanting to be apart of it.
Yet the work and schooling that goes into designing and consulting is just out of my scope.
Forever a hands on guy.
I believe that is true.The steel isn't 360 degrees? The loft load is on block in the back?
No different than a concrete framed building. Masonry does pretty well in compression.
If someone backs a 10 ton truck into my building, I'd much prefer they bring the wall down on themselves than 50 tons of flyloft...
