Scottish Premiership Club, Hearts, has used SPS terraces to redevelop the Tynecastle main stand as their Gorgie home is expanded. 2,049msq of SPS terraces

were specified in the design by James Clydesdale Architects for the upper stand section – Rows 11-37. The SPS terraces accommodate 4,200 seats and were delivered to site with pre-drilled hardware fixing holes for rapid seat and handrail installation.

USTA Flushing Meadow GrandstandJuly 2016

The 2016 US Open marked the opening of USTA’s new grandstand at Flushing Meadow, New York. In partnership with Walters Group, IE won the contract from HUNT Construction Group to supply and install SPS terraces for the 5,800

seat grandstand. This was the second SPS stadia project for USTA.

“The SPS stadia system is one of the most accurate stadia systems we have worked with.

· The design build process helped coordinate the accuracy of structural steel and eliminated unforeseen conditions.

· The engineers at SPS helped to coordinate and resolve complex expansion joint issues which were a huge concern for our unstable site.

· The SPS system helped to complete a complex, 16 sided stadium in an extremely limited amount of time.

· As designers of sport venues, we especially appreciate the look of the finished system from below and above. The finish on the system is beautiful.”

The Philippine Arena is the world’s largest mixed-use indoor theatre. SPS terraces account for approximately 40,000 of the 55,000 seats. The use of SPS enabled the terraces to be installed after the roof had been completed. This key

benefit offered programme flexibility and cost effectiveness which could not be achieved by any other method or material.

Grand Duchess Charlotte Bridge (Pont Rouge)October 2017

 The widening and strengthening of this bridge was undertaken by German SPS bridge licensee,

SEH Engineering.

Pont Rouge was upgraded from six vehicle lanes to a mixed use bridge fulfilling modern day requirements. 1.82m was added to its width using a total of 2,240 m² of SPS panels.

The bridge now accommodates four SPS strengthened vehicle lanes and two newly installed tram lines; plus a two-way cycle lane and predestrian walkways on either side which are acoommodated on the newly installed SPS panels.

located onto the abutments in just 10 minutes. The bridge was funded by the FHWA AID programme, the aim of which, was to identify a competitive alternative superstructure to address their aging bridge inventory.

The bridge, designed and delivered by SPS licensee US Bridge, won the NSBA Special Award - Technological Advancement.

Project Summary

• Main deck raised by 100mm to reach 5000mm ABL (minimum freeboard requirements), required by classification society, ABS

• SPS double bubble core used to achieve the needed height increase

• Aluminium top plate

• No disturbance to below deck spaces, services and structural fire protection insulation in the compartments adjacent and below

“This was the first time that SPS was installed with this particular combination of elements in a maritime environment; aluminium plates, double bubble core and no hot work. It was a perfect solution for the project as the installation of the SPS had no impact in other areas of the yacht cabins, corridors, ship systems, service runs and insulation which other solutions would have caused. The project was executed in a fraction of the time of other modification solutions.”

“The team was able to complete the repair under challenging circumstances whilst the vessel was in-service. In order not to impact on our guests’ cruise experience, restrictions were placed on when works could be undertaken which the team worked around, delivering the project on time with minimal disruption.”

Andrew Menzies Deck & Safety SME, Carnival UK

Project Summary

With SPS licensee, SRC Group, an SPS project for Carnival Cruises on board the Queen Mary 2 was completed in September 2018. It follows on from a similar project October 2017. Both projects were undertaken during a scheduled cruise between New York and Southampton. Two areas, 48m² and 88m² were reinstated tween deck 8 and deck A. The repairs were inspected and approved by Lloyd’s Register on both sides of the Atlantic!

The 127,500dwt Solitaire, one of the world’s largest pipe-layers, has completed some of the most challenging

projects in which heavy pipe has been laid in very deep waters.

Fatigue and corrosion meant that 550m2 of tank top in hold number 6 needed to be reinstated. After a detailed assessment was carried out, Allseas opted for SPS technology instead of steel renewal. The project was undertaken with LR Class approval at United Stevedores in Amsterdam.

 The existing steelwork on board the vessel was badly corroded, access tight and a crop-and-replace repair was an

unattractive option.

40m² of deck required steel reinstatement. Solid perimeter bars that form the boundary of the cavity and top plates were welded into place and the resulting cavity injected with the elastomer core to form the new composite deck

The SPS deck reinstatement was substantially quicker than an equivalent conventional steel repair.

“I like the fact that the new deck is much stronger because the old deck is still there with a new deck on top bonded by the elastomer core. I recommend this process to anyone who has to replace steel on board ships where the SPS system can be used.”

Project Summary

• Licensee MOM used SPS® to provide a permanent repair to restore integrity of a damaged (cracked) area of the hull structure

• Structural integrity restored by the SPS elastomer core transferring loading/stress levels from the existing plate to new SPS top plate therefore ‘bridging the cracks’

• SPS reduced the cost, disruption and time required for the repair

• FPSO was able to remain on-station and in production

The high impact resistance that SPS provides made it the perfect solution for the reinstatement of the pipe deck on

this semi-submersible, which had suffered damage from dropped objects. Two areas of the deck were repaired with SPS. Its use guaranteed the integrity of below deck service runs which were unaffected by the extensive work above.

A second project to reinstate 134m² of pipe deck scheduled for June 2019.
