The SPS Stadia + Arenas System decking helped power Daytona International Speedway’s ‘Daytona Rising’ renovation in 2013/14, transforming the 54-year old venue to meet the Speedway’s evolving demands.
In total, roughly 20,000 ft² [1865 m²] of our structural composite, SPS, was installed in the new Hospitality Suite Walkway, part of the improved access to the Grandstand and Hospitality Suites.
Because site conditions demanded small cranes for lifting, the project called for a lightweight decking solution. SPS fit the brief perfectly, minimising load on the existing support structure.
Beyond its light weight, however, SPS also offers natural dynamic and acoustic deadening, making it the ideal material choice for this premium hospitality offering.
Significantly evolving since its opening, the ‘world center of racing’ hosts a diverse schedule of events throughout the year. The 500-acre motorsports campus now boasts fully renovated grandstands.
Indeed, the $400m renovation project broke ground in July 2013. Following over two years of construction, crews delivered the finished venue in January 2016, just in time for the 58th Daytona 500.
Architects ROSSETTI were responsible for the master planning of the Daytona Rising site, alongside design-build contractor Barton Malow.
