New Westminster Secondary School

The New Westminster Secondary School in BC opened its doors in the spring of 2021.

For this project the client wanted a modern and efficient rigging grid for scenic equipment.

The chosen solution was a tension wire grid. The main advantages of this system are: simplicity, lightness, accessibility, simple and efficient lighting, easy commissioning and installation, as well as a good loading capacity.

Our mandate was to design, manufacture and install a tension wire grid in two spaces totaling 4500 ft2 (418 m²).

• Steel wire rope stretched on square tube frame (HSS type) in sections of 9'x9' (2744 mm).
• Capacity of 15 lb/ft2 (73 kg/m2) with point load of 300 lb (136 kg).
