Air Show - Thales at Farnborough
The System
We constructed an impressive four storey 30mx25m structure which incorporated a showpiece roof terrace and hospitality area, which was decked and landscaped, providing the perfect vantage point for the entire show. The 
also allowed for huge mesh, custom printed graphics to be easily attached to the external building frame, creating an amazing first impression and opportunity for profiling the Thales brand. The enabled the internal fit out to be directly attached to the building frame, without the need for additional internal rigging, something which was important to the internal fit out team in creating a very high spec finish. The structure was also fitted out with twelve staircases, full air-conditioning, suspended ceiling and toilet facilities on each floor.
Specialist Structures Delivered
- Full H&S and Fire Compliance to meet the requirements of this sophisticated Air Show.
- A full Specialist Structure Crew constructed the vast building over a 7 week build schedule.
- Project liaison with other on-site teams to ensure smooth delivery of the final structure.
