This project involves the end-to-end design and development of support structures for a fleet of parade floats used in high-profile public events. The goal was to deliver structurally sound, visually striking and logistically efficient platforms that meet stringent safety standards while supporting creative and aesthetic objectives.
Key Highlights:
- Float sizes tailored to meet diverse creative requirements.
- Utilized steel standard sections to reduce custom fabrication and streamline production.
- Concurrent design and engineering across all phases to achieve efficient design under tight timelines.
- Engineered for daily use with an 8-year design lifespan.
- Final designs aligned with customer’s creative and technical specifications, adhering to GB 8408, ASTM F2291, ASCE SEI-7, AISC 360, AWS D1.1, OHS/OSHA, ASME Y14.5 and customer internal standards.
