Bradfield College Greek Theatre: DemiAlto-55×110/50×5

Open mesh steel balustrades, walkways, stairs and an agora now provide a safe and spectacular descent into the arena as part of an ambitious restoration project of the 1890 amphitheatre at Bradfield College.

The theatre performs triennial Greek plays and celebrated its re-opening with a gala performance of Antigone in May 2014.

The balustrade panels were made from DemiAlto grating with a bespoke aperture of 55x110mm.  The panels were installed without posts and were fixed through plates, mounted below the finished floor level. The grating was made with a suitable section of bearing bar to take the potential crowd loading.
