The answer is a bit complex but basically it is a reinforced concrete wall that acts as a beam. Buckinghams have not yet cast the bearing at the top but when you see this it looks like a 'dog head'. This is designed so that the forces go perpendicular to the wall. The foundations beneath the...

The sails were on the original design but have now been replaced with accoustic walling to reduce the amount of noise going out of stadium.

The timing will be governed by a number of matters including the weather but should be mostly finished by Christmas at the latest. The video is an accurate representation of what will happen.

Sorry, already allocated. Have a look in a fortnight and if there are any left, ask at the gate.

The necessary pipe work is being put in place. We only have planning permission for 22500. The major restricting factor on capacity is the travel plan.

Some way off yet. The next major task is to excavate the area that was University land and to rasie the East stand arch.

Good spotting people, although I think encouraging JS into a criminal offence is itself an offence. The bit on the back of the truck is the bit that will join with Eastbourne Gulls dog's head. Even we are getting excited now.

Probably, there is an enourmous amount of stuff being delivered over the next week. For instance, the crane to lift the arch will be delivered on 50 lorries and put together on site.

It's to build the dog's head which is the bit where the arch meets the thrust block.

Not my field of expertise, I struggle to use a video. However, the technical chappies are aware of it and are trying to sort it out.

Give me time. Hoping that the east end of the terracing will be started within the next 2 -4 weeks. The remainder will be done when the haul route for the west stand chalk removal is no longer required.

Don't know how this compares to Sheff Wed but here are a few stats for you. The clear span of both the East and West Stands are 181m (They are symmetrical) The height (from pitch level) to the underside of the bottom chord to the East Stand is 23m The height (from pitch level) to the...

It's a bit early to go into that detail. It will probably be a mix of sky and our own programmes on the flat screen and it is usual for the match to be shown on the big screens.

There is no electricity to most of the site and won't be for some while. They will work when and where it is safe to do so.

They will not be going in until the roof is up and the stand is watertight, so sometime next Autumn.

I presume this is another thinly veiled dig at the time lapse camera. From that camera, you can see the work taking place on the south concourse. You could see the demolition of the cottages on UoB land. You can (just) see the demolition starting on the UoB buildings. You can see the digging...

This is not the forum for rants or for opinions. There is another place for that. This forum is to give people an opportunity to ask questions regarding the Community Stadium project (hopefully in a polite and non-confrontational manner). Your last post did not contain a question so was not...

Yes we will be honouring this.

Not funally decided yet there will be banks it will not just be a blank space. There will be some seating in the south east and south west corners at high level for wheelchair users.

We are receiving grants from a number of different bodies towards the buidling of the stadium or the infrastructure works. We will publicise these grants when the body responsible for them is happy for us to do so.
